A suite of privacy-focused internet services developed by Proton AG, a Swiss company founded by CERN scientists. Proton's products include ProtonMail (encrypted email), Proton Drive (encrypted cloud storage), Proton VPN (virtual private network), and Proton Calendar. For creators concerned about data privacy, digital security, and protection from corporate surveillance, Proton services offer end-to-end encrypted alternatives to mainstream services like Gmail and Google Drive. Proton is particularly relevant for creators who handle sensitive business communications, contracts, or audience data.
