The Privacy Problem
Most business email and cloud storage runs on infrastructure designed to read its own contents. Service providers can scan messages for ads, train models on attachments, hand over data to whichever jurisdiction asks for it, and — when something goes wrong on their end — your company’s correspondence is part of the breach. For most businesses this is an acceptable trade. For a meaningful number it isn’t.
The businesses where it isn’t are the ones with privileged communications, sensitive client matters, regulated patient or financial data, journalistic sources, executive deliberations, intellectual property under active development, or simply a values-based decision that the contents of company communications should belong to the company. For those, the answer is end-to-end encrypted infrastructure where the provider literally cannot read what it carries.
Proton is the option we recommend when that’s the requirement.
Why Proton
Proton is a Swiss company offering an integrated suite of end-to-end encrypted services for businesses and individuals. Built by CERN scientists in 2014, it’s now used by more than 100 million people including journalists, activists, attorneys, healthcare providers, and businesses with serious privacy posture. Full product details are at proton.me.
Proton Mail
End-to-end encrypted email with full IMAP/SMTP support via Proton Bridge for use with any standard mail client.
Proton Calendar
Encrypted calendar that integrates with Mail. Invites and event details are private to your organization.
Proton Drive
Encrypted cloud storage with collaborative document editing.
Proton VPN
No-logs VPN with Secure Core (multi-hop) and Stealth options. Useful for remote teams and traveling executives.
Proton Pass
Password manager included in the business suite. Integrates with the rest of the Proton identity.
Proton Sentinel
High-security mode with advanced account protection for users at elevated risk.
Swiss jurisdiction
Data centers in Switzerland and Germany, protected by some of the strongest data-privacy law in the world.
Open-source clients

SSO and SCIM
Identity federation and automated user provisioning on business plans.
That’s the platform. The next question is what it looks like to actually run a business on it — custom domains, migrating from Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace, integrating with the apps your team already uses, training people to think differently about how their mail behaves.
