LockSelf Partner
Passwords, files, documents: 3 French vaults certified by ANSSI.
LockSelf is the only French cybersecurity suite to have received CSPN certification from ANSSI. LockPass (passwords), LockTransfer (encrypted sharing) and LockFiles (document vault). AES-256 encryption, sovereign hosting. IMACS SERVICES deploys, integrates and supports.

Are your passwords still circulating in Excel spreadsheets and unencrypted emails?
In most organisations, sensitive credentials are shared with no controls whatsoever: Excel spreadsheets, plain-text emails, sticky notes, non-sovereign consumer tools. The result is always the same — a gaping attack surface and compliance that is impossible to demonstrate. This is precisely what we address at IMACS SERVICES.
Practices that are impossible to stamp out
A shared KeePass vault, passwords on sticky notes, non-sovereign files… As long as there is no simple alternative, your teams will keep working around the rules. We deploy the tool that makes good practice easier than bad practice.
A single compromised credential is all it takes
The vast majority of breaches begin with a stolen or reused credential. Without a centralised policy or audit trail, you have no way of knowing who has access to what — or for how long.
NIS2, DORA, GDPR: time is running out
Auditors and your clients demand evidence. Without a certified, auditable tool, your compliance is hanging by a thread. We put in place the audit trail that makes it demonstrable.
What is LockSelf?
LockSelf is a 100% French cybersecurity suite that addresses three critical needs for any organisation:
- LockPass — enterprise password manager (the French alternative to 1Password / Dashlane Business)
- LockTransfer — encrypted file sharing (the French alternative to WeTransfer)
- LockFiles — digital vault for sensitive documents (the French alternative to Dropbox/Box for confidential files)
Certifications & compliance
- CSPN ANSSI — the only 100% French B2B password vault certified CSPN by ANSSI
- AES-256 CBC encryption certified by ANSSI
- ISO 27001, HDS, TISAX, CISPE (depending on plan)
- Compliant with NIS2, DORA, ISO 27001 and GDPR
Sovereign hosting
- Shared cloud France on Scaleway (Starter plan)
- Dedicated cloud France on Outscale (Premium plan)
- On-Premises (Docker) on your own servers or a sovereign cloud (On-Premises plan)
- Data encrypted so that LockSelf itself cannot read it (zero-knowledge)
Why IMACS as your integrator?
A digital vault that is poorly configured is worse than no vault at all. Our role:
- Audit your current practices: shared Excel files, sticky notes,
.txtfiles, browsers — where do your secrets live today? - Design the structure: who sees what, who shares what, what rotation policy
- Deploy LockPass / LockTransfer / LockFiles according to your needs (all three, or just one)
- Connect to your directory (Azure AD, Google Workspace, on-premise AD)
- Train your teams (including non-technical staff)
- Regularly audit good practice (quarterly report)

Why not Bitwarden, 1Password or Dashlane?
All are excellent products. But they have three structural drawbacks for a French organisation:
- US / Australian hosting → Cloud Act applies; the FBI can request your metadata without notifying you
- No ANSSI certification → does not tick the 'sovereign cloud' box for public procurement and sensitive sectors
- HDS compliance not native → if you handle health data, this is a blocker
LockSelf addresses exactly these 3 points. In every other respect — UX, features — it is now on a par with the American market leaders.

Frequently asked questions
How much does LockSelf cost?
LockSelf is billed per user per month, but the price depends on three variables: the modules selected (LockPass, LockTransfer, LockFiles), the number of users (tiered volume pricing) and the plan (Starter, Premium, On-Premises). LockSelf also applies a -20% discount on each additional module added.
Minimum commitments: Starter from 2 licences, Premium from 25 licences, On-Premises from 50 licences. A 14-day free trial with no commitment is available.
As pricing varies according to your scope, we put together a comprehensive quote (LockSelf licences + IMACS services) after a brief discussion — book a slot.
How long does a deployment take?
Much faster than you might expect:
- LockPass only (10–30 users): 2–3 days
- Full suite (50–150 users with migration from Excel/Dashlane): 1–2 weeks
- On-Premises on your own infrastructure (healthcare, finance, local authorities): 2–3 weeks
User training is included, with a quick learning curve (clear French-language UI).
What is the practical difference compared with Bitwarden or 1Password?
Bitwarden and 1Password are excellent tools, but:
- Foreign hosting (USA) → subject to the Cloud Act
- No ANSSI certification → a blocker for public procurement, healthcare and defence sectors
- HDS compliance not native
For a French organisation with no sovereignty constraints, free Bitwarden is perfectly adequate. For organisations handling sensitive data or involved in public procurement, LockSelf is the right choice. We will give you an honest recommendation based on your situation.
Can LockSelf be hosted on our own infrastructure (On-Premises)?
Yes, that is the On-Premises plan: LockSelf is deployed on your own servers (Docker) or on a sovereign cloud of your choice, from 50 licences. It adds subsidiary segmentation, full SI integration (SSO, API, SIEM/SOC), SSH key management and high availability (BCP/DRP). This plan is designed for healthcare organisations, financial institutions, local authorities and OES/OIV. We assess your infrastructure and compliance requirements with you before any commitment.
What happens if LockSelf ceases to exist?
Your data can be exported at any time in standard formats (JSON, CSV) — this is also your right to data portability (GDPR Art. 20). In the cloud, data is hosted in France (Scaleway or Outscale) and encrypted with zero-knowledge: LockSelf cannot read it. With On-Premises, data remains entirely on your own infrastructure. As a precaution, we set up regular exports as part of our managed service, so that you are never dependent on a single vendor.
