ProtonMail and Tutanota


ProtonMail has a good explanation of zero-access encryption on its blog. All e-mail stored on ProtonMail servers is encrypted. Thus, even if the server is hacked or ProtonMail is faced with a government demand for your data the only thing available on the ProtonMail server would be encrypted data. ProtonMail is headquartered in Switzerland, and its servers are located there as well. This means that a government request for your data would have to be made through the Swiss courts and comply with Swiss data privacy laws.

Tutnota discusses how its encryption protects your personal information on the Tutanota servers. With Tutanota The entire mailbox is end-to-end encrypted. The encrypted data can only be accessed by your company. This includes all emails and all contact information (address book) stored in Tutanota. All data is stored encrypted on our own servers in highly secured data centers located in Germany.

I use both ProtonMail & Tutanota and recommend them as excellent services to secure your personal and private communications.

Don't Be A Twit - Encrypt Your Shit !

In June 2017 (updated in November 2017) Medium published a comparison of Tutanota vs. ProtonMail.
