Being secure online means managing A LOT of passwords. Make that organizational work easier with Vaults.

Sort items (logins, aliases, notes) into encrypted containers with your choice of colour & icon.

Your passwords should be complex, but password management should be simple.

A new vault in Proton Pass, allowing the user to select both a vault colour and an icon, as well as a name.

Here's a related piece on Authenticator, looking at how Rust is becoming more and more a part of what we do: proton.me/blog/authent...

How Rust powers Proton Authenticator | Proton

Worried about the data others can get from your snaps?

Most photos contain metadata (EXIF) like location, device, and timestamps. Sending them via email can leak this info.

Proton Mail protects you by allowing you to strip metadata from attachments before sending.

A Proton Mail modal showing that you can strip metadata from an image you're uploading. It reads "this ensures that no one can see location, device, and other information that could be used to identify or track you."
