SCOVR gives government agencies full ownership of their communications infrastructure — built on the Matrix open standard and the Element Backbone, with tailor-made deployment options that answer to no vendor but you.
Email created universal interoperability in the 1990s — every server, every provider, every country. Today's messaging landscape has regressed: governments rely on closed platforms controlled by foreign corporations, none of which answer to elected officials or public accountability frameworks.
SCOVR is built on the Matrix open standard and powered by the Element Backbone. This means your agency controls the server, the data, and the identity of every user — with the same interoperability email gave the world, extended to real-time messaging, calling, and video.
No US data centres. No algorithmic profiling. No vendor with leverage over your communications infrastructure.
Proprietary platforms like Teams, Slack, and WhatsApp were built to maximise engagement and extract value for shareholders — not to serve the public interest. When governments adopt them, they hand critical communications data to corporations operating under foreign legal jurisdictions.
SCOVR delivers a consumer-grade experience your team will actually use, without the hidden cost of surrendering data sovereignty, record-keeping compliance, or constitutional accountability.
Built on the Element Backbone with tailor-made extensions for public sector requirements — from security-cleared workflows to cross-departmental federation.
Centralised control over users, rooms, permissions, and federation policies across your entire agency deployment — without relying on vendor support.
Integrate with your existing identity provider — Active Directory, Keycloak, or custom SAML/OIDC implementations — for seamless single sign-on and role-based access control.
Full message audit trail with tamper-evident logging. Meet parliamentary record-keeping obligations, FOIA requirements, and internal oversight mandates without compromise.
Deploy SCOVR on physically isolated, internet-restricted networks for high-side communications. Purpose-built for classified environments and critical national infrastructure.
Granular room-level moderation, content policies, and incident response workflows. Maintain institutional standards without vendor intermediation.
Deploy under your agency's own name, identity, and interface design. SCOVR's white-label architecture means citizens and civil servants see your brand — not ours.
Every government has different infrastructure requirements. SCOVR adapts to yours — from sovereign cloud regions to fully air-gapped on-premise deployments.
Deploy the full SCOVR stack within your own data centres. No outbound traffic, no cloud dependency, full hardware sovereignty.
Dedicated cloud nodes in the EU, GCC, or APAC, operated under local data residency laws. No data leaves the region — ever.
Physically isolated deployment for classified environments and critical national infrastructure. Designed for high-side networks with strict air-gap requirements.
Air-gapping ensures that physically sensitive environments — command centres, intelligence nodes, critical infrastructure control rooms — can maintain rich communications without any internet exposure.
SCOVR's air-gapped architecture supports multi-node federation within the isolated network, so separate divisions of a classified deployment can still communicate with each other, while remaining entirely cut off from the public internet.
Request air-gap briefing →SCOVR is engineered to meet public sector compliance requirements across multiple jurisdictions — from European data protection law to GCC data residency mandates and beyond. Our transparent, auditable architecture means your legal team can verify every claim.
Unmanaged adoption of apps like WhatsApp, Signal, and Teams in government has created serious compliance, accountability, and security gaps. This paper outlines the real costs — and how to address them through a sovereign communications strategy.
Public sector organisations across Europe, the Gulf, and the Nordic region have deployed SCOVR to reclaim control of their communications infrastructure.
Replacing a fragmented mix of proprietary tools across 14 ministries, this deployment brought the entire federal digital workforce onto a single sovereign platform — with full audit trail and cross-ministry federation.
