End-to-end encrypted, zero-knowledge cloud storage
Updated
Filen is a cloud storage service built around end-to-end encryption and a zero-knowledge architecture, so the provider cannot read user files. It is based in Germany, uses AES 256-bit client-side encryption, and offers encrypted notes, chat, drive mounting and apps across web, desktop, mobile and command line.
Privacy-conscious individuals, developers and small teams that want encrypted file storage and sync use Filen. It suits users who value open source apps and a European provider.
Filen states there are no hidden fees and that every feature and full encryption are included in the price. Specific paid tiers are not detailed on the homepage, so check its pricing page for current plans.
Common alternatives to Filen include Proton Drive, Tresorit and Sync.com. The right choice depends on required features, deployment model, integrations and budget, so compare shortlisted tools against your own requirements.
