TrustBuilder: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

TrustBuilder is a SaaS platform for strong authentication and access management, made by In-Webo Technologies SAS in Paris, France, which trades as TrustBuilder. Its MFA turns the standard browser into the authentication token, so users need no smartphone app or hardware token, including on shared workstations. The platform also covers single sign-on and access management for employees, contractors and customers, with connectors for SAML, OIDC, LDAP, RADIUS and VPN.

The company is headquartered in France and no parent company is stated. The product data-processing annex lists hosting on Google Cloud in Belgium and in Equinix and Telehouse data centres in France, and the vendor says no authentication data leaves Europe. Some of these providers belong to non-European groups, which matters for jurisdiction analysis. The annex serves as a GDPR Article 28 processing agreement and requires standard contractual clauses outside the EEA. No self-hosted edition is described.

Why digital sovereignty matters with TrustBuilder

TrustBuilder is headquartered in FR 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 TrustBuilder scores best on data residency.

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