DRIVUNO vs Box
Box is built for enterprise workflow and governance. DRIVUNO is built so the provider cannot read your files at all.
Box offers deep enterprise governance, workflow automation and compliance tooling, with encryption managed on the provider side (KeySafe lets large customers manage keys through a HSM, but content is still processed server-side). DRIVUNO takes the opposite route: everything is encrypted on your device before upload, there is no server-side decryption path, and Live Clone mirrors your PC or Mac folders 24/7 without ever exposing plaintext.
| Feature | DRIVUNO | Box |
|---|---|---|
| Encryption model | Client-side before upload | Server-side, provider-managed keys |
| Zero-knowledge by default | Yes, every file | No |
| Provider can decrypt content | No — architecturally impossible | Yes, for indexing, preview, governance |
| Content classification / AI | None on file contents | Built-in classification and AI features |
| Continuous folder mirroring (Live Clone) | Yes — live 24/7, encrypted on device, version history | Desktop sync (bidirectional), no zero-knowledge mirror |
| Encrypted mailbox | Built-in | Not included |
| Free tier | 1 GB fully encrypted | 10 GB, provider-readable |

Frequently asked questions
Is this comparison fair?
+
We compare architectural and feature characteristics that are publicly documented by each vendor at the time of writing. We never describe a competitor as 'insecure' — only as 'not zero-knowledge by default' where that is the case.
What does zero-knowledge change in practice?
+
Your files are encrypted on your device with keys derived from your passphrase (Argon2id) before upload. DRIVUNO stores ciphertext and wrapped keys only, so there is no admin override, no content scanning, and nothing readable to disclose under legal pressure.
Can I mirror my computer folders continuously?
+
Yes. Live Clone watches one folder, several folders or a whole external disk on PC or Mac and clones every change to your vault in real time, encrypted on your device, with version history retained.
Can I migrate my existing files?
+
Yes. Upload folders through the web app — everything is encrypted client-side as it lands — or point Live Clone at the local copy of your current cloud folder and let it mirror itself.
How do I start?
+
Create a free account with 1 GB, encrypt your first upload in under a minute, and upgrade only when you need the space.
Your sensitive files deserve more than a traditional cloud.
Start free with 1 GB. Zero-knowledge encryption from the first upload — no admin override, no AI scanning, no plaintext on the server.
