ProtonMail's newsletter is a game-changer for those concerned about email security.

The newsletter is designed to help you stay on top of your emails without compromising on security, thanks to ProtonMail's zero-access encryption.

This means that even ProtonMail's team can't read your emails, ensuring that your sensitive information remains confidential.

With the newsletter, you can stay organized and focused on your inbox without worrying about security breaches or data leaks.

Built for Privacy

Proton Mail's commitment to privacy is unwavering.

Unlike third-party tools, the Newsletters view is built directly into your inbox, so your data stays private and secure.

Your inbox should work for you, not for Big Tech.

Our Key Problem

The old Proton Mail newsletter format didn't scale well, making it difficult to cover all the updates from the growing number of Proton services.

This was especially true as more services were introduced, such as Proton VPN and Proton Drive, not all of which were relevant to every user.

The newsletter primarily focused on product updates, but it didn't highlight the critical developments that impact online freedom worldwide.

Security Risks

Cyber attacks can be devastating, with the average cost of a data breach reaching $3.86 million.

The majority of these attacks are preventable, but many organizations still fail to implement basic security measures.

Malware can spread quickly through an unsecured network, causing irreparable damage.

In 2020, a single malware attack cost a company $1.3 million in lost productivity.

Ransomware attacks have become increasingly common, with 71% of organizations experiencing at least one attack in 2020.

These attacks can be prevented by implementing robust security protocols and regularly updating software.

However, many organizations still neglect to do so, leaving themselves vulnerable to attack.

Data Breaches

Data Breaches are a major concern for individuals and organizations alike. According to recent statistics, a staggering 61% of businesses experienced a data breach in the past two years.

The consequences of a data breach can be severe, with the average cost per record breached reaching $150. This can add up quickly, with a single breach potentially costing millions of dollars.

The most common causes of data breaches include phishing attacks, which accounted for 32% of all breaches. This highlights the importance of employee education and awareness in preventing these types of attacks.

A notable example of a data breach is the 2013 Yahoo data breach, which affected over 3 billion users worldwide. This breach was a wake-up call for the tech industry, emphasizing the need for robust security measures.

In response to the growing threat of data breaches, many organizations are investing in cybersecurity measures, such as encryption and multi-factor authentication. These measures can help prevent data breaches and protect sensitive information.

Our Solution

Our solution is to split the newsletter into two types: product-specific and a single Proton newsletter.

Product-specific newsletters will cover new features and updates for each Proton service, and you can subscribe or unsubscribe from them at any time. If you're only interested in updates for the services you actually use, this is a great option.

For example, if you've never used Proton VPN, you won't get emails about it. If you are interested in this news, you can always manually subscribe.

The single Proton newsletter will cover four main topics: highlighting important developments in online privacy and freedom, sharing Proton's opinion and analysis on various online privacy and freedom topics, explaining what Proton as an organization has been doing, and listing the most important updates from the various services in the Proton ecosystem.

You can manage which Proton emails and newsletters you receive by logging into any Proton web app, clicking Settings → All settings → Dashboard, and scrolling down to the Email subscriptions section.

New View

Proton Mail has introduced a new newsletter view that makes it easier to navigate your inbox.

This new view presents all subscription-based emails in a dashboard, protecting you from integrated trackers and pixels.

You can mark emails as read or delete them with just one click, and even unsubscribe directly from newsletters without having to click on hidden links.

Gmail has a similar function, but Proton Mail's approach is more comprehensive.

Abonnements can be moved into a separate folder, allowing you to access them later and review them according to your own rules.

Proton Mail recommends signing up for platforms using email aliases to create an additional layer of protection and keep your real email address safe.

This new view is a game-changer for anyone overwhelmed by the daily influx of newsletters and marketing campaigns.
