password manager from the team behind ProtonMail, the world's largest end-to-end encrypted email service. Joe, you and I both know the grubby little secret of how a lot of businesses actually share passwords. Spreadsheet? A Post-it note. Sending it to a colleague via Slack and hoping for the best. That's pretty much it. All of the above. Every one of them is a breach waiting to happen. Proton Pass is built to fix exactly that, letting teams store and share credentials securely with end-to-end encryption baked into every feature. It's open source and fully auditable. It runs on Swiss infrastructure, so your data sits outside US jurisdiction, and it's backed by a nonprofit. No venture capitalists. No pressure to chase a quick exit. Which is the bit I like. It's built to serve you, not investors. So never be pressured to cut security corners or rush towards a liquidity event that could change ownership, pricing, or priorities overnight. It's trusted by over 100,000,000 people, ISO 27,001 certified, SOC two audited, and it helps you tick the boxes for NIST two, DORA, and The UK's cybersecurity and resilience bill. And crucially, people actually use it. One Swiss customer told Proton, and I quote, it works.
