Cyberfolks: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

Cyberfolks is a Polish provider of domain registration, web hosting and server services. Its range covers hosting for WordPress, WooCommerce and PrestaShop, VPS and dedicated servers, SSL certificates and a website builder. The company also offers marketplace tools for sellers. The services are delivered as hosted products on the provider's own infrastructure.

The operating company, cyber_Folks S.A., has its seat in Poznań and is therefore subject to EU law and the GDPR, which the company refers to as RODO. Its privacy policy states that personal data generally is not transferred outside the EEA. The exceptions include some domain and SSL services that rely on providers outside the EEA, and transfers to the United States under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework. The website does not state where the data centres are located, so European organisations should confirm the hosting location in the contract. The offering is not open source.

Why digital sovereignty matters with Cyberfolks

Cyberfolks is headquartered in PL and therefore falls under European law: the GDPR, NIS2 and the Data Act. No foreign legislation can compel access to your data.

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

Cyberfolks 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 Cyberfolks together with your other vendors and gives a total score, a heatmap and the main risk drivers.
