Communication & CollaborationProton Mail
Encrypted email you control, hosted in Switzerland with zero access by Proton.
Proton Mail is an end-to-end encrypted email service operated by Proton AG under Swiss jurisdiction, designed for users and organizations that need a verifiable privacy guarantee on their email communications. It is widely used by security researchers, legal professionals, journalists, and software teams handling sensitive client correspondence who find standard email providers' data access policies unacceptable. The core problem Proton Mail solves is that conventional email providers can read your messages: Proton Mail applies end-to-end encryption between Proton Mail users and PGP encryption for external recipients, so message content is inaccessible to Proton's servers. The service supports custom domains, making it practical for business use rather than just personal privacy. Features like the Proton Sentinel high-security program and automatic encryption key management lower the barrier for non-technical users to communicate securely.
Privacy-conscious professionals, legal and security teams, and companies in regulated industries that need encrypted business email without relying on a provider that retains the technical ability to access message content. The right time to adopt Proton Mail is when a compliance audit, a client requirement, or an internal security review flags email as a data exposure risk that your current provider cannot adequately address.

Proton Mailin depth.
End-to-End Encrypted Messaging
Messages between Proton Mail accounts are encrypted automatically with no configuration required. For external recipients, Proton Mail supports PGP encryption with one-click key exchange or password-protected links for non-PGP users.
Custom Domain Support
Organizations can send and receive mail from their own domain ([email protected]) while retaining Proton Mail's encryption and privacy infrastructure. This makes the privacy upgrade invisible to recipients and maintains professional branding.
Proton Sentinel High-Security Mode
Proton Sentinel adds manual account security review by Proton's team for suspicious login activity, providing an extra layer of human monitoring for high-risk accounts. This is designed for users who face targeted account compromise attempts.
Encrypted Drafts and Metadata Protection
Unlike most encrypted email services that only protect message bodies, Proton Mail also encrypts drafts and applies additional protections on metadata where technically possible. Drafts are never readable to Proton, even as you compose them.
Self-Destructing Messages
Outgoing messages can be set to expire after a defined period, after which they are permanently deleted from both sender and recipient inboxes. This is useful for time-sensitive sensitive communications that should not persist indefinitely.
Proton Mail connects natively with the rest of the Proton ecosystem, including Proton Drive, Proton Calendar, Proton VPN, and Proton Pass, making it the foundation of a fully integrated privacy-first productivity suite. For teams that need bridge access to standard desktop clients like Outlook or Apple Mail, the Proton Mail Bridge application enables IMAP and SMTP connectivity without sacrificing end-to-end encryption.
Commonuse cases.
Handling confidential client communications at an agency or consultancy
Proton Mail lets agencies send sensitive proposals, contracts, and strategic documents to clients without those messages being readable by a third-party email provider. Password-protected encrypted replies allow even clients without Proton Mail to respond securely.
Protecting internal communications for security or legal teams
Legal counsel and security researchers can use Proton Mail as a segregated channel for communications that carry attorney-client privilege or that discuss active vulnerabilities. The Swiss jurisdiction means Proton faces a very high legal bar before disclosing any account metadata.
Migrating a team off Google Workspace for privacy compliance
Organizations that have decided Google's data access policies conflict with client contracts or internal privacy standards can migrate to Proton Mail with custom domain support and retain a familiar webmail interface. Proton's import assistant supports bulk migration of existing email history.
