Tresorit vs Box - Cloud Storage Security Comparison

Why security conscious companies choose Tresorit over Box

Mainstream cloud storage providers, like Box, only use partial encryption for your data. This alone is not enough to protect you – for true security in the cloud, you need more. Try Tresorit, the secure Box alternative!

  Box

  Only partially encrypted.

  Box decrypts your files when they reach their servers, making them vulnerable to hacker attacks and data leaks. Since they store your encryption keys to do this, they and anyone who breaches their servers can view your files.

  
  

  Tresorit

  Fully end-to-end encrypted.

  Your files are encrypted on your device and never decrypted until they reach your intended recipient - only you and anyone you authorize can decrypt the files. Even if our servers were breached (which has never happened), your files would not be readable to hackers.

• 

  Box

  Regularly accesses and views your content.

  Box and third-party providers they work with regularly scan and store your file content in order to provide certain services and create targeted advertisements. This creates opportunities for your data to be misused or lost in the process.

  
  

  Tresorit

  Cannot access your content due to our Zero-Knowledge protocol.

  Zero-knowledge means that nobody besides you holds the keys to your data, not even us, your service provider. Even if we wanted to, it would be impossible for us to decrypt and view your file content.

  Box

  Falls under US CLOUD Act.

  This legislation grants US government agencies and law enforcement full access to cloud data hosted by US companies, like Box, regardless of the location of the data server. They can also legally prohibit Box from informing you of their access request with a gag order.

  
  

  Tresorit

  Protected by Swiss privacy laws.

  Tresorit is headquartered in Switzerland and therefore your data is protected by some of the strongest privacy laws in the world. As a Swiss company, Tresorit cannot be compelled to participate in mass surveillance by US or EU intelligence agencies.
