Compare the privacy gap

Google Drive

Collaboration, ecosystem, productivity

Google Drive is optimized for seamless collaboration and productivity within an integrated Google ecosystem.

To enable enable search, AI-suggestions, and previews Google scans and indexes your files. To do this, Google must hold your encryption keys. You are never truly alone with your data.

Tresorit

E2E-encryption and maximum control over sensitive information

Tresorit is built for organizations that demand seamless collaboration, efficient integrations, and uncompromising data protection with provider-blind security.

We don't know what you store. We don't want to know. By encrypting everything on your device, we ensure that Tresorit employees, hackers, or governments see only gibberish.
