Key features
Cyso Cloud Object Storage offers all the features you expect from leading hyperscalers. Its robust features allow you to efficiently store, access and manage large amounts of unstructured data while protecting your data under European regulations.
Bucket ACLs
Bucket ACLs (Access Control Lists) allow you to assign specific access permissions to users or groups within a storage bucket. This helps you control who can read, write, or manage objects.
Object versioning
Object versioning ensures that previous versions of a file are retained whenever changes are made. This protects against accidental deletion or overwriting.
CORS
Cross-Origin Resource Sharing allows objects in your storage to be accessed from external domains. Web applications can load files directly from storage without restrictions.
Multipart Uploads
Multipart uploads split large files into smaller parts and upload them in parallel, ensuring faster and more reliable transfers. This is especially useful for storing large datasets or media files.
Object Lock
Object Lock temporarily protects files from deletion or modification, helping with regulatory compliance and data protection. This is ideal for critical data that must remain unchanged.
Object Tagging
Object tagging allows you to add metadata tags to objects, which helps organise and filter data. This makes it easier to identify specific files and apply advanced storage management strategies.
Pre-Signed URLs
Pre-signed URLs provide temporary access for downloading or uploading objects without assigning direct rights. This allows files to be shared securely without permanent access rights.
Object Lifecycle
Object Lifecycle Management lets you set automatic rules to archive or delete files after a certain period. This helps reduce storage costs and manage data efficiently throughout its lifecycle.

Your data secured in Europe
Cyso Cloud prioritises the security and privacy of your data. We ensure that all stored information remains within Europe and that our services complies with strict data protection regulations.
Keep your data in your country
Your data remains within your chosen country. All data and replicas in our Object Storage service are stored in the region corresponding to your selected area.
GDPR compliant and ISO certified
Object Storage meets the highest security and compliance standards, including GDPR compliance and ISO certifications. This means that your data is treated with the utmost care.
H/A Object Storage replication
Our high-availability object storage replication ensures that your data is stored redundantly on multiple nodes. This improves reliability and prevents data loss due to hardware failure.
How it works
With our cloud storage solution, you can store data as objects within containers also called buckets. An object consists of a file and its associated metadata, while a container serves as a secure and scalable repository for your objects. To store your data, simply create a container, define a unique name and select your preferred European data centre location. You can then upload your files, which will be assigned unique identifiers for seamless organisation and retrieval.
We offer a range of features to support your specific usage. Versioning allows you to keep multiple versions of the same object.
This means that you can easily restore files that have been accidentally deleted or modified.
Your data remains private and secure, with access only granted via explicit permissions (ACL - Access Control Lists).
Built on a foundation of security, compliance and performance, our cloud storage ensures that your data is always accessible, protected and stored in compliance with European regulations.

Frequently asked questions
We use a flexible pay-per-hour pricing model with no startup costs. This means you only pay for the resources you actively use, ensuring cost efficiency and scalability. Whether you’re running virtual machines, containers, databases, or storage, you are billed only for the time they are running—down to the hour.
With no upfront investment, our pricing structure is designed to eliminate unnecessary costs, making it ideal for businesses of all sizes. You can easily scale resources up or down based on demand, avoiding over-provisioning and ensuring you never pay for more than you need. This pay-as-you-go approach provides maximum flexibility while keeping cloud expenses under control.
Object Storage data is stored securely on our own managed hardware. To ensure maximum reliability, your data is automatically written to three different disks, preventing data loss in case of hardware failure.
You have full control over on which Region your data is stored. Currently, you can choose between our data centers in Europe: Amsterdam (Netherlands) and Frankfurt (Germany).
Yes, our Object Storage is fully compatible with S3, meaning you can use standard S3 tools, SDKs and applications to work with it. This ensures easy migration, integration and management using familiar workflows.
You can use Object Storage on your instances by connecting via an S3-compatible client or command-line tools such as AWS CLI, Rclone, or MinIO Client (mc). Simply configure your access credentials, define the endpoint, and start uploading or retrieving data. Many applications also support direct integration with Object Storage for seamless data management.
Object Storage and Block Storage serve different purposes:
- Object Storage stores data as objects with metadata and is designed for scalability, making it ideal for backups, media files and big data. It can be accessed via APIs such as S3.
- Block storage divides data into fixed-size blocks and is optimised for high-performance workloads such as databases and virtual machines. It is mounted by an operating system as a local disk.
Object Storage is best for scalability and cost-effective long-term storage, while Block Storage is suitable for low-latency, high-performance applications.
With Cyso Cloud Object Storage, there is no predefined storage limit: you can store as much data as you need. Our storage is designed to scale seamlessly, allowing you to handle terabytes or even petabytes of data without performance degradation.
Your total storage capacity depends on your plan, budget and usage needs. If you expect large-scale storage requirements, feel free to contact our team for customised solutions and pricing options.
An S3 client is a piece of software for a specific operating system (e.g. MacOS, Linux, Windows) that is designed to facilitate the day-to-day use of S3 buckets. There are many S3 clients on the market, which differ in their feature set and also in their performance when creating or deleting.
Examples:
- AWS CLI – Command-line tool for managing S3 storage.
- Cyberduck – GUI-based client for S3-compatible storage.
- Rclone – Command-line tool for syncing and managing cloud storage.
- MinIO Client (mc) – CLI tool for interacting with S3-compatible storage like MinIO.
- SDKs (Python Boto3, AWS SDKs, etc.) – Programmatic access for developers.
You can access objects using APIs (such as S3-compatible APIs), SDKs, command-line tools, or the Cyso Cloud portal.
Currently, we do not apply standard encryption to objects stored in our storage systems. The data is not encrypted but is stored in chunks (split files) on our systems. However, all data communication between your systems and our cloud occurs via TLS (Transport Layer Security), ensuring encrypted data transfer during transit.
While your data is securely transferred via TLS encryption, for sensitive information we recommend implementing client-side encryption for maximum security. Our storage systems have robust physical and logical security controls, but encryption at rest provides an additional security layer, especially for sensitive data.
We currently provide:
Transport encryption: All data transfers between your systems and our cloud are automatically encrypted using TLS.
Client-side encryption support: We fully support you implementing your own encryption before uploading data to our storage.
You can implement client-side encryption in several ways:
- Using S3/boto tooling: You can provide your own encryption keys when uploading objects:
- Use SSE-C (Server-Side Encryption with Customer-Provided Keys) with the AWS SDK/boto3
- Apply client-side encryption before sending the data
2.Using encryption libraries: Implement encryption in your application using standard cryptographic libraries before uploading data
Client-side encryption offers several advantages:
- Complete control over your encryption keys
- We have no access to your unencrypted data
- Enhanced security as encryption keys never leave your systems
- Compliance with regulatory requirements that mandate encryption for sensitive data
With server-side encryption that we would provide, we would also manage the keys. This means:
- The encryption offers limited additional security because the same party (us) manages both the data and the keys
- This creates a false sense of security without significantly improving the actual security level
While technically possible, we recommend client-side encryption as a best practice instead. This gives you complete control over your encryption keys and provides true data confidentiality. We’d be happy to discuss your specific requirements and recommend appropriate solutions.
Our S3-compatible API supports various encryption methods, including:
- AES-256 encryption
- Customer-provided encryption keys (SSE-C)
- Most standard encryption algorithms implemented client-side
Yes, we can provide code examples for common programming languages and frameworks. Please contact our technical support team for detailed implementation guides specific to your environment.
Many compliance frameworks (GDPR, HIPAA, etc.) require appropriate security measures but don’t always specifically mandate server-side encryption. Client-side encryption, when properly implemented, often provides stronger security guarantees and can help meet these requirements. However, we recommend consulting with your compliance officer regarding your specific regulatory needs.
For optimal security, we recommend:
- Encrypting your sensitive data before sending it to our storage
- Implementing your own key management
- Using the S3-compatible APIs with your own encryption parameters
Absolutely! We’re available to provide technical advice and support for implementing client-side encryption solutions. Please contact our technical support team for assistance.
