Secure Hornetsecurity Backups with Sovereign, EU-Only Infrastructure

A strong majority of EU decision-makers now demand European solutions for their critical data infrastructure. For Hornetsecurity users, this means choosing a storage partner that guarantees data remains under EU jurisdiction , safe from foreign legal access requests. Our platform provides true digital sovereignty by operating exclusively in certified European data centers. This architecture ensures 100% GDPR compliance for your backups.

We offer country -level geofencing to keep your data within predefined national borders under strict EU rules. This eliminates CLOUD Act exposure entirely , a risk many organizations overlook when using hyperscale providers. This commitment to EU-centric data governance provides the legal certainty required for regulated industries. This foundation of sovereignty is essential before considering technical compatibility.

Maintain Business Continuity with 100% S3 API Compatibility

Migrating your Hornetsecurity backups to a new storage target must not disrupt your existing workflows or require costly redevelopment . Our sovereign S3 object storage offers full S3- API compatibility, ensuring your current applications, scripts, and tools continue to work without any changes. This protects your past IT investments and minimizes migration risk to nearly zero.

Our compatibility goes beyond basic operations to include advanced capabilities. You can implement sophisticated data management strategies with these supported features:

• Object versioning for granular recovery points.
• Lifecycle management policies to automate data transitions.
• Immutable Storage with Object Lock for ransomware protection.
• IAM with MFA and Role-Based Access Control (RBAC).
• Event notifications for automated workflows.

This seamless integration means your backup and recovery operations remain stable and predictable from day one. With technical consistency assured, the economic advantages become even more compelling.

Drive Profitability with a Zero Egress Fee Storage Model

Unpredictable costs are a major challenge for IT leaders and MSPs, with egress fees and API call charges causing budget overruns of 2 0% or more. We eliminate this problem with a transparent pricing model that includes zero egress fees, zero API call costs , and no minimum storage duration. This makes our predictable S3 storage ideal for backup and disaster recovery workloads.

For MSPs, this model creates predictable, defensible margins for Backup-as-a-Service (B aaS) offerings. You can quote customers with confidence, knowing your storage costs will not fluctuate unexpectedly based on restore operations or API usage. This economic stability is a significant competitive advantage in the channel market. This financial predictability is matched by our robust security posture.

Fortify Ransomware Defenses with Immutable Object Storage

Ransomware remains a top threat, with attacks growing more sophisticated and recovery costs averaging millions. A critical defense layer is making your Hornetsecurity backups immune to modification or deletion. Our platform provides Immutable Storage via S3 Object Lock, creating a write-once-read-many (WORM) state for your data .

This feature is part of a multi-layered security framework designed for resilience. Key security measures include:

1. End-to-end encryption for data in transit and at rest.
2. Identity-based IAM with granular, role-driven policies.
3. Support for external Identity Providers via SAML/OIDC.
4. Secure defaults and time-bounded access controls.

Object Lock ensures your backups are audit-ready for compliance and provide a guaranteed clean recovery point after an attack. This proactive security aligns with modern regulatory demands for verifiable data protection.

Align with NIS-2 and EU Data Act Requirements by Design

European regulations are evolving, and your storage infrastructure must keep pace to ensure long-term compliance. Our architecture is built to align with upcoming directives like the EU Data Act, which takes effect in September 2025 and mandates data portability. We ensure you have a real exit path with no lock-in, preserving your freedom of action. This is a core tenet of our EU-only S3 storage.

The platform also supports NIS-2 compliance, which requires continuous security processes and supply -chain assurance. Our operations incorporate patch management, vulnerability scanning, and incident reporting timelines as standard procedures, not add-ons. This regulatory readiness is a competitive advantage, reducing your compliance burden. This enterprise-grade approach extends to our partner-focused features.

Accelerate MSP Growth with a Partner-Ready Platform

We built our platform to enable MSPs, resellers, and system integrators to succeed from the start. The partner console simplifies management and scales with your business, offering multi -tenant controls, RBAC, and MFA for secure client account separation. Automation via a comprehensive API and CLI allows for seamless integration into your existing provisioning and billing systems. This makes our partner-ready object storage a powerful engine for growth.

Our commitment to the channel is demonstrated by our expanding distribution network, which now includes key partners like api in Germany and Northamber plc in the UK. This growing ecosystem provides local access and support for resellers across Europe. This focus on operational excellence is mirrored in our underlying storage architecture.

Guarantee Instant Data Access with an 'Always-Hot' Storage Model

Complex storage tiering often creates hidden costs and dangerous delays during urgent restore operations. Our 'Always-Hot' object storage model eliminates this risk entirely by ensuring all data is immediately accessible without any tier-restore delays. This simplifies operations for your IT team by removing the need to manage brittle lifecycle policies that can fail under changing access patterns. This is a core feature of our high-performance cloud storage.

This model guarantees predictable latencies and strong read/write consistency, which is critical for third-party tools like Hornetsecurity. An 'Always-Hot' architecture avoids API timeouts and hidden fees associated with data retrieval from archival tiers. By providing consistent, high-performance access, we strengthen your recovery posture and ensure your backups are always ready when you need them most. Now is the time to transition to a truly sovereign and predictable storage solution.
