EuroDNS: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

EuroDNS is an ICANN-accredited registrar through which organisations can register, transfer and manage domain names. Its portfolio also covers WHOIS privacy, SSL certificates, email suites, Microsoft 365, managed WordPress and Plesk hosting, and DNS services including Anycast DNS. It also offers solutions for business customers and resellers. The services are delivered as SaaS through a web portal.

EuroDNS is headquartered in Luxembourg and is part of the Namespace group, whose holding company is also based in Luxembourg. It has been registering domains since 2002. The sources consulted show no non-European parent company. The service is not open source. For a European organisation this means that both the contracting party and the registrar fall under the law of an EU member state, which simplifies data-protection and jurisdiction assessments. The exact hosting location of customer data is not stated in the sources, so confirm it with the provider.

Why digital sovereignty matters with EuroDNS

EuroDNS 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.

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

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