cegecom: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

cegecom s.a. is a telecommunications and ICT provider headquartered in Luxembourg City. It is an alternative network operator in Luxembourg alongside the incumbent and offers its own fibre connectivity, hosting, data centre housing from small racks to private cages and rooms, cloud telephony, unified communications and DDoS protection. Colocation can be combined with online and connectivity services.

cegecom belongs to the artelis group. Artelis s.a. has been majority-owned by VSE AG of Saarbrücken since 2017, so the top of the ownership chain is German even though the statutory seat is in Luxembourg. According to the company, its data centres are located in Luxembourg and Germany, both inside the EU, and its website describes Tier III and Tier IV facilities. For a European organisation this means a Luxembourg contracting party within a German group structure, which matters in group due diligence.

Why digital sovereignty matters with cegecom

cegecom is headquartered in LU and therefore falls under European law: the GDPR, NIS2 and the Data Act. No foreign legislation can compel access to your data. The ultimate owner is based in DE, also within Europe.

Data is hosted exclusively in the EU, so cegecom scores best on data residency.

cegecom is closed source and hosted by the vendor. The encryption keys and the runtime sit with the vendor and switching requires data migration. Ask about bring-your-own-key, export options and open standards.

What this means for your organisation depends on your whole stack and context. The free assessment weighs cegecom together with your other vendors and gives a total score, a heatmap and the main risk drivers.
