Today, we're launching Proton Drive. Unlike other cloud storage, Proton Drive protects your files and metadata with advanced end-to-end encryption. Based in Switzerland and open-source, it's like a Swiss vault for your digital files and data.

Huge congrats on the launch. It’s nice to see something actively developed that can better serve consumers than tresorit which is expensive and very corporate for me.

three questions:

* can you discuss the underlaying storage tech more? Is it globally available, distributed etc? A primary use case of encrypted storage for me is taking along my travel documents and being able to “turn off” storage before passing through borders just by logging out and not having to trust iOS to delete things behind me

* any timeline for an iOS app?

* looks like the logins are all unified now - please please add yubikey only 2fa like Google offers in advanced protection. SMS/app based 2fa are not providing the entire spectrum of security that proton users deserve

The pricing for this is awesome and very approachable for the value it provides!

Cool, very excited for the mobile app to leave early-access .

Proton has been a great stepping stone on the de-googleing journey for my colleagues and I.
