DRIVUNO vs iCloud
iCloud is built into the Apple ecosystem. DRIVUNO is built around zero-knowledge by default, across platforms.
iCloud offers strong security and an optional Advanced Data Protection mode for end-to-end encryption of most categories. DRIVUNO is zero-knowledge by default for every file in every vault, on every platform, with no toggle required.
DRIVUNO is a zero-knowledge Dropbox + Slack: files, chat and mail are encrypted on your device, the keys never leave it, 1 GB free, paid plans from $9.99/month.
People reach this page searching for icloud alternative, encrypted icloud. This is the direct answer: DRIVUNO is the iCloud alternative where the provider holds no key.

Frequently asked questions
Is this comparison fair?
+
We compare architectural and feature characteristics that are publicly documented by each vendor. We avoid absolute claims, and we never describe a competitor as 'insecure' — only as 'not zero-knowledge by default' where that is the case.
Can I migrate my files easily?
+
Yes. You can upload folders via the web app; everything is encrypted client-side as it lands. We are working on dedicated migration tooling for major providers.
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.
