European organisations are under increasing legal pressure to demonstrate that their security tooling - and the activity data it processes - stays under European jurisdiction. ALLOD runs on hardware you control. There is no vendor infrastructure in the path.
Hosting your data on servers located in the EU is not the same as keeping it under European legal jurisdiction - not when the vendor operating those servers is a US company.
Data residency means where data is stored. Data sovereignty means who has the legal authority to access it. A US-incorporated vendor with EU servers still falls under US jurisdiction for government access requests.
A vendor's data processing agreement cannot make them non-compliant with a government order. When law and contract conflict, law wins - and your DPA has no standing in a US court.
If no vendor infrastructure is in the path, there is no vendor to compel. ALLOD puts your own infrastructure between your users and the internet - not a shared cloud platform operated by a third party.
CLOUD Act, NIS2 and Schrems II all point in the same direction: the only way to satisfy them structurally is to stop routing security-relevant data through foreign-controlled infrastructure.
US law can compel American cloud providers to disclose data stored anywhere in the world - without notifying the data subject or their government. The CLOUD Act applies to any company incorporated in the US or listed on a US exchange, regardless of where their servers are.
Self-hosting eliminates this exposure at the architecture level. There is no vendor to issue a demand to.
Eliminated by architectureBoth EU directives require demonstrable control over your security tooling and ICT risk management chain. NIS2 mandates that essential entities maintain oversight of critical ICT services. DORA requires financial entities to manage third-party ICT risk, including the ability to audit and exit providers.
Running infrastructure you own satisfies these requirements without legal creativity or compensating controls.
Structural complianceThe Court of Justice of the EU ruled that standard contractual clauses do not protect against government access to data. SCCs rely on the vendor being able to comply with GDPR even when facing a government demand - which US law does not allow.
Self-hosted infrastructure in a jurisdiction you control eliminates the cross-border transfer risk that SCCs cannot fully address.
No transfer to justifyDigital sovereignty is not a feature you configure - it is a property of the architecture. ALLOD is built so that Allod Solutions has no access to your traffic, your event log, or your policy. This is not a promise; it is the consequence of how the system is designed.
Every component runs on hardware you control, in a data centre you choose. Your users' traffic is inspected locally - it never transits Allod infrastructure. There is no shared cloud to breach, no third-party processor to subpoena.
Run on your own hardware in Stockholm, Frankfurt, Amsterdam or any data centre in a jurisdiction you choose. The inspection stays where you put it.
Allod Solutions AB is a Swedish company. There is no US parent, no US listing, and no US infrastructure in the data path - which means no CLOUD Act exposure through the vendor relationship.
Every release ships with a CycloneDX SBOM. You can inspect the full dependency tree before deploying - no black-box binary from a vendor you have to trust.
Two products, two threat surfaces - the same architectural principle.
Inline firewall, DLP, CASB and ZTNA running in your own infrastructure. Your users' traffic is inspected locally - no round-trip to a vendor cloud, no shared inspection platform, no foreign processor in the path.
SWG →Vendor risk and shadow IT governance. GLEIF ownership monitoring detects when an acquisition moves a vendor's ultimate parent to a new jurisdiction - before your next review cycle. EU sanctions screening included.
