This guide presents the security model that allows you to assign users to an email address or dedicate a different password to it for each device or software that needs to access it.

 

Introduction

  • When creating an email address, no password is defined.
  • If you remain within the Infomaniak ecosystem, i.e., you only use the Infomaniak Mail web app (online service ksuite.infomaniak.com/mail) and/or the Infomaniak Mail mobile app (application for iOS/Android smartphones or tablets), you do not need to manage passwords because everything is configured with a notion of user, i.e., an Infomaniak account (which does have a password):
    • An email address can be viewed/used on these Infomaniak Mail apps without a password other than the one that already allows you to access your Infomaniak account, simply after being invited to do so.
    • You only need to authorize your own account or invite someone you know to be a user of the email address.
  • Otherwise, outside of this ecosystem, you simply create a password (or several) for your devices (Outlook, iPhone, CRM, etc.) according to your needs:
    • Each password can be revoked individually, without affecting other users or devices linked to this address.
    • It is not possible to display a previously created password; you simply need to create a new one!

This guide explains how to broadcast an online meeting using kMeet to a separate stream accessible via a unique URL, thanks to Infomaniak's Video Streaming service.

 

✘ UNAVAILABLE with
kSuite Free / kSuite Standard
my kSuite / my kSuite+ (ik.me, etik.com, ikmail.com) 


 

Introduction

  • Broadcasting a typical conference-style meeting via a Video Streaming feed rather than within the kMeet application offers several advantages:
    • Public broadcasting on a large scale without having to restrict access to an audience limited to invited individuals.
    • Attracting a wider audience, such as for conferences, webinars, or live events where hundreds or thousands of viewers can follow the event without joining a private call.
    • Allows reaching an unlimited number of viewers.
    • No need to manage access for each participant; the feed can simply be viewed via a link.
    • A simple web browser is sufficient to access the streaming feed.
    • Passive access: viewers are not forced to participate actively or interact; they can simply watch the event without registering or logging in, which is better suited for large events.
    • No voice interruptions or disruptions related to microphone management; this helps maintain a smoother flow and keeps the focus on the speaker.
    • Higher broadcast resolution when kMeet may be limited by bandwidth constraints and lower video quality to avoid network overload.

 

Create the Video Streaming sharing link

Prerequisites

  • You must be a moderator of the kMeet to be able to create a live broadcast link.
  • It is not necessary to have an Infomaniak Video Streaming plan.

Then:

  1. Start kMeet via ksuite.infomaniak.com/kmeet or from one of the applications for desktop or mobile devices.
  2. Once in the meeting, click on the action menu ○○○ in the kMeet toolbar.
  3. Choose Start Live Broadcast:
  4. Click the button to Start:
  5. Wait for the Video Streaming feed to be created; a symbol displayed on kMeet, as well as an audible signal, indicates the start of the live broadcast.
  6. In the same location, once the stream link is displayed, click the icon on the right to copy the URL corresponding to the live stream; paste the URL into a message for the participants or anyone who needs to watch the live broadcast:

The stream is broadcast continuously for a maximum of 24 hours, and will no longer be accessible once the kMeet meeting is stopped.

This guide concerns Euria, the sovereign artificial intelligence assistant, a full-fledged kSuite service, also available within a standalone app.

 

Introduction

  • The use of AI at Infomaniak is based on a transparent and ethical approach.
  • Each service integrating AI follows strict principles to guarantee reliable and respectful use:
    • the protection of information is guaranteed by the complete processing of data within infrastructures located exclusively in Switzerland, thus ensuring complete control over digital sovereignty,
    • the results generated are never used to train models or for advertising purposes,
    • and AI is not intended to replace humans, but to assist them.

 

What is Euria?

Designed to offer a European alternative to American technology giants, the sovereign artificial intelligence assistant Euria stands out for its deep integration into Infomaniak's productivity ecosystem, while guaranteeing absolute confidentiality of user data.

Euria's strength lies in its local infrastructure:

  • Unlike solutions based on foreign public cloud, Infomaniak's AI is hosted exclusively on its own servers in Switzerland.
  • This approach ensures strict compliance with data protection standards and guarantees that no information processed is used to train third-party models or shared outside the host's secure infrastructure.

Euria uses state-of-the-art language models (LLMs) selected for their efficiency and performance, while also being optimized to minimize their energy footprint. Infomaniak is committed to complete transparency regarding the algorithms used, reflecting the company's commitment to technological independence and environmental sustainability.

 

Usage Limits

To ensure a smooth and secure experience, the use of Euria is subject to certain volume and file size restrictions:

  • Quota Calculation (rolling window): the limits (below) are not reset at midnight but are calculated in real time over a 24-hour window; each message sent "occupies" a slot in your quota and is automatically released 24 hours after it is sent.
    • If you send messages throughout the morning until you reach your limit at 11 a.m., your sending rights will gradually become available the next morning as each message reaches its 24-hour age.
  • Overall message quota: your daily limit is shared; each request addressed to Euria is deducted from your overall quota, regardless of the project or conversation in which you are interacting.
    • A conversation cannot exceed 254,000 tokens at this time.
  • Transcriptions: transcription services are unlimited.
  • Image uploads: image uploads are limited to 10 MB per file.
    • A conversation can contain no more than 20 images.
  • Document uploads: file uploads are limited to 100 MB, except for the my kSuite and my kSuite+ plans, for which the limit is 20 MB.
  • Number of projects:
kSuiteFree2

Some Infomaniak services integrate Euria

  • kChat
    • The AI Euria integrated into kChat helps save time in communications: it can rephrase sentences, generate quick responses, correct spelling, or adjust the tone of a message. The user retains full control over the suggestions, which are only local to each session.
  • Mail Infomaniak
    • In the Mail application, Euria assists in writing emails. It can generate content from a few keywords, rephrase or structure a message, adapting to different styles. Nothing is sent automatically, and the user can modify the texts at any time.
  • Site Creator
    • An AI-based writing assistant allows Site Creator to quickly generate content suitable for different types of web pages. This service is useful for people who are launching a website and are looking to produce clear, optimized, and relevant texts.
  • kDrive
    • On kDrive, artificial intelligence is used at two complementary levels to simplify document management. Euria allows you to interact with text files stored in the drive. This module can answer questions about the content of a document, summarize, translate, or extract useful information. It is particularly effective for reading reports, understanding complex texts, or quickly generating an overview of a file.

Responsibilities of the parties

Data provided to the AI

  • Infomaniak's AI is currently based by default on these models.
    • These include Mistral, Whisper, DeepSeek, Llama, and Granite.
  • When using a writing assistant, messages and requests addressed to the AI are processed exclusively in Switzerland by Infomaniak's infrastructure.
  • No data is processed or shared with a third party.

Data provided by the AI

  • The language model generates text based on the data it has assimilated during its training, and it lacks consciousness, intentions, or moral responsibility.
  • It is crucial that the user is aware that the information generated by the model is not always accurate and should not be considered an unquestionable source of information.
  • The user must exercise critical judgment and verify the information provided by the assistant with reliable sources when necessary.
    • For example, if a person uses the model for critical tasks such as medical, legal, or financial advice, they should take extra precautions to confirm the information provided by the model.
  • In the event of inappropriate or dangerous use of this assistant, the responsibility lies with the user who takes these actions.

This guide explains how to invite a user to kChat who is not yet part of your Organization but will be counted as a kSuite user.

 

Introduction

  • Refer to this other guide to grant access to one or more kChat channels to an external user, who can then interact with your team without being counted as a kSuite user and without having any specific rights within the Organization (of which they will not be a part).
  • You can also invite an entire Group from kChat.
  • Refer to this other guide if you want to manage the channels to which new members will automatically belong.

 

Invite to use kSuite

Prerequisites

  • Be a kChat administrator:
    • The role within the Organization is irrelevant; being an Organization administrator in the Organization that has the kSuite (and therefore kChat) is not required, and is not sufficient in any case:

       

Then, invite the user using the procedure below. Once invited, the user can confirm their membership and will access kChat with the limited permissions you have granted them:

  1. Click here to access the kChat management section in the Infomaniak Manager (need help?).
  2. Click on Add a user:
  3. Click on Create a kSuite user.
  4. Click on Next:
  5. Enter the user's first name and last name, and define their role as a standard user:
    • Legal representative
      • Legal responsibility for the organization
      • Can manage all products and users
      • Can manage accounting and new product orders
    • Administrator
      • Can manage all products and users
      • Can manage accounting and new product orders
    • User
      • Can manage the products you authorize
      • Can manage accounting if you authorize it
  6. Do not create a mail address for the user and instead indicate their existing mail address to which the invitation should be sent:
    • You can require this future user to log in with this mail address or allow them to specify a different mail address (this is particularly useful if they already have a user account with Infomaniak with a different login ID).
    • Add the user to your kSuite using the toggle switch.
  7. Click the Invite button:
    • The invitation is pending until the invited user completes the registration (see below). The organization's user dashboard clearly indicates this status:

 

Accept the invitation

To access the organization that owns kChat:

  1. The invited user receives the invitation at their mail address and clicks the Accept invitation button:
  2. They specify their contact details as well as the mail address/password they wish to use and complete the registration:
  3. Once the registration is complete, the newly registered user can log in to their Manager and access the kChat to which they were invited.
  4. Existing users are automatically notified of the new participant's arrival and can now chat with them. As soon as they are added, the new user receives a welcome message from Euria (Infomaniak's AI Bot):

 

Access to kSuite, not access to kSuite management!

It is important to differentiate between using the kChat app (within kSuite) and managing kSuite itself.

In the invitation example above, the new user was invited to join kChat, so they are now counted as a kSuite user when an administrator accesses the kChat user management section:

The same applies to kSuite user management:

However, this new user will not be able to directly manage the kSuite to which they were invited, since their role (defined in point 5 above) does not authorize them to do so:

  1. This is why this user will not see any active links in the Collaborative Tools → kSuite section of their Infomaniak Manager.
  2. They will need to switch to the Infomaniak applications using the menu in the top right corner:

Note that, if desired, this user can order their own kSuite, independent of the kSuite to which they were invited.

This guide explains how to change your kDrive plan, the collaborative cloud storage solution that is 100% Swiss Made.

 

Introduction

  • kDrive is the name given to the file storage/sharing service offered by Infomaniak in Switzerland.
  • kDrive is accessible free of charge or through a subscription, depending on whether you are the only user or if you want collaborators to also have access.
  • kDrive exists as an independent product, or as a product among others within the kSuite & my kSuite / my kSuite+ suite.
    • To help you identify the plan that best suits your needs, please refer to this other guide.

 

If you have been invited to view/collaborate on a file in a kDrive, you may not actually own the kDrive product; you only have access to the kDrive managed by someone else. Therefore, you cannot make changes to the current plan.

 

Determine your current kDrive plan

From the kDrive web app

To find out which plan you currently have:

  1. Click here to access the Infomaniak kDrive web app (online service ksuite.infomaniak.com/kdrive).
  2. Click on Manage to go to the plan change section and view the current plan:

If no dashboard is accessible in the bottom left corner, you have limited features (e.g., the my kSuite plan) that can be unlocked by upgrading to a higher plan:

From the Infomaniak Manager

You can also find information about your current plan in the Manager, the dashboard for your products.

If no kDrive product is present in the Manager, the kDrive app is accessible only among the apps in the top right corner, because you have…

  • either a my kSuite / my kSuite+ plan:
  • or you were invited to share a document (you are therefore an external kDrive user):

Otherwise, find your kDrive among your collaboration tools:

 

Change the current kDrive plan

Your kDrive can evolve with you. As your needs grow – whether to accommodate new collaborators, integrate a family member, or store an increasing volume of data – easily increase its capacity to unlock its full potential.

Prerequisites

  • You must have sufficient permissions within the Organization.

To change your current kDrive plan:

  1. Click here to access the Infomaniak kDrive web app (online service ksuite.infomaniak.com/kdrive).
  2. Click on Manage to go to the plan change section and view your current plan:

This will allow you to switch to a higher plan from the Infomaniak Shop:

If, for example, your new plan increases the number of users that can be added to your kDrive, please refer to this other guide to invite them to join.

This guide for the Web app Mail Infomaniak (online service ksuite.infomaniak.com/mail) or the mobile app Infomaniak Mail (application for iOS/Android smartphone or tablet) explains how to activate encryption for emails sent from Infomaniak Web and mobile services.

 

Preamble

  • When encryption is activated, emails and attachments are encrypted as soon as they are received on Infomaniak servers, via the public keys of senders and recipients.
    • Each email address generates a key upon its first use, securely stored in Infomaniak datacenters.
  • The keys are based on elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) and use the OpenPGP standard.
    • They are themselves encrypted in AES-256-GCM with automatic decryption via Infomaniak authentication.
  • In search results, only the subject of encrypted messages will be visible, while their content will remain secure during storage.

 

Activate email encryption…

 

…from the Infomaniak Web Mail app

To automatically encrypt a message sent to an email address:

  1. Click here to access the Web app Mail Infomaniak (online service ksuite.infomaniak.com/mail).
  2. Compose a new message as usual.
  3. Click on the padlock icon to the left of the Send button to activate encryption:
  4. Confirm the action if a confirmation window appears.
  5. The icon now represents a closed padlock and the color of the whole is changed:
  6. Press the Send button.

The action must be performed for each new send.

 

A. Recipient whose email is managed with Infomaniak

If the recipient of the encrypted email has an email address managed with Infomaniak, encryption is done in a completely transparent manner for both the sender and the recipient. A note will indicate the encryption of the message…

  1. …in the recipient's inbox:
  2. when opening the received message:
  3. ... and in the sender's sent folder:

 

B. External recipient

If the recipient of the encrypted email has an email address managed outside of Infomaniak services, encryption is still possible, but it requires setting a password:

  1. Click here to access the Infomaniak Mail app (online service ksuite.infomaniak.com/mail).
  2. Compose a new message as usual, but addressed to an email address outside of Infomaniak.
  3. Click on the lock icon to the left of the Send button to enable encryption.
  4. A modal opens to allow you to create a password:
    • Enter a password and copy it to send it by your own means (kPaste for example) to the recipient (you can agree on a password in advance so the recipient is already informed):
  5. The icon now represents a closed lock without an orange chip, and you can send the email as usual:
  6. Recipients will then receive a message notifying them that an encrypted email is waiting for them:
    1. By clicking on the provided button, they will be redirected to a secure web page where the password must be entered.
    2. Once the password is validated, the encrypted message can be viewed on the same page valid for 30 days.

Importing Contacts

To do this:

  1. Click here to access the Import section of the Infomaniak Contacts web app (online service ksuite.infomaniak.com/contacts):
  2. Click on the blue Select a VCARD or CSV file button:

END:VCARD
BEGIN:VCARD
VERSION:3.0
FN:Alice Martin

  1. Click on the action menu ⋮ located to the right of the name of the group created with the import date.
  2. Click on Delete:

If you encounter any problems

  • Complete the contact details:
    • A contact containing only the first and last name may be ignored by the system for security reasons.
    • Make sure that at least one additional piece of information is present (email address or phone number).
  • Check the header of your (CSV) file:
    • The columns must be clearly named (e.g., "First Name", "Last Name", "Email").
    • If the headers are missing or incorrect, the system will not be able to read the data.
  • Data format:
    • Check that phone numbers do not contain unusual special characters and that email addresses are spelled correctly (presence of @ and a period).
  • File encoding:
    • For optimal results, save your CSV file in UTF-8 format; this ensures that accents and special characters are displayed correctly.

This guide explains how to modify product access rights for a user in your Organization on the Infomaniak Manager.

 

Preamble

  • Since you opened your account with Infomaniak, you are part of at least one Organization.
    • If you were alone and it was not an invitation, an Organization was created in your name and you automatically become the legal representative.
    • Otherwise, you belong to the Organization that invited you (to join its kSuite, to manage a product, etc.).
  • It is possible to modify a user's role within your Organization.
  • You can then define whether a user…
    • is part of your Organization and should become:
      • Legal representative
      • Administrator
      • Collaborator (this is the part that is detailed below…)
    • is external to your Organization (limited rights):
      • External users are not included in the sharing of calendars and address books for the entire Organization.

 

Who can access what…

Prerequisites

The guide below allows you to manage product access for collaborators and external users. Indeed, a legal representative or an Administrator already has access to all existing products within the Organization and visible on the Infomaniak Manager.

To modify the product access of an Organization user:

  1. Click here to access user management on the Infomaniak Manager (need help?).
  2. Click on the action menu located to the right of the user concerned.
  3. Click on Modify product access:
  4. You can grant access to everything with maximum permissions in 1 click.
  5. Otherwise, click on the product category to which you want to grant access.
  6. Select the necessary product(s).
  7. If you have selected multiple products, decide whether a future additional product should automatically be visible to the user (and with what type of permissions).
  8. Click on the Save button:
  9. Rights are granted immediately.
  10. Click on the pencil icon ✎ to modify permissions:
  11. Restart at step 5 if you need to grant access to multiple products.

 

Service usage / Service management

Be careful, on your product table, it is important to distinguish between product access (type kDrive for example, within the kSuite) and product management access:

It is possible to authorize a user to use kDrive (they will be able to create a PDF for example) without granting them kDrive service management rights (they will not be able to change the offer, invite a new user, terminate, etc.).

 

 

Technical rights / Statistical rights

With certain services like kDrive, it is possible to give a collaborator TECHNICAL and/or STATISTICAL rights (adds access to the dashboard, share links, storage statistics, active users, connected devices, activity on kDrive):

Other services like domain names do not have a STATISTICAL section:

Certain specific services like ticketing allow granting even more detailed rights:

 

Easier access: Groups

In order to facilitate the addition of access rights to a product that is on your Organization, there are Groups. These allow you to create teams that are linked to Infomaniak products with the desired rights, very practical for giving a new collaborator of your Organization access to the products they will need in their daily activity.
