Rublon: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

Rublon is a multi-factor authentication service for organisations. It protects access to networks, servers, VPN connections and applications with a mobile authenticator app, and it offers native connectors, APIs and support for RADIUS and SAML. Organisations roll it out across the workforce and the service is administered through an online portal. The website positions it as a way to protect organisational data and help meet regulatory requirements such as GDPR.

Rublon sp. z o.o. is registered in Zielona Góra, Poland, and is also the controller named in its privacy policy. The website does not state its shareholders or a parent company. The privacy policy says that some IT service providers are headquartered outside the EU and that data may be transferred to them under the European Commission's standard contractual clauses. The website does not name a hosting region, so a European organisation should check the processors and hosting locations in its contract. The product is not open source.

Why digital sovereignty matters with Rublon

Rublon 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 Rublon scores best on data residency.

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