Proton Mail was released as a public beta on 16 May 2014 [6] as an end-to-end encrypted email service after a year of crowdfunding, by a group of scientists who met at CERN. [7] [8] Proton Mail 2.0 was released 14 August 2015, with open source front-end clients and a rewritten codebase.
The term "end-to-end encryption" originally only meant that the communication is never decrypted during its transport from the sender to the receiver. [9] For example, around 2003, E2EE has been proposed as an additional layer of encryption for GSM [10] or TETRA, [11] in addition to the existing radio encryption protecting the communication between the mobile device and the network infrastructure.
Encryption scrambles and unscrambles your data to keep it protected. • A public key scrambles the data. • A private key unscrambles the data. Credit card security. When you make a purchase on AOL, we'll only finish the transaction if your browser supports SSL.

[4] The company released version 9 of the software in 2005. PGP Corporation's focus shifted towards the corporate market. [5]
Hushmail is an encrypted proprietary web-based email service offering PGP-encrypted e-mail and vanity domain service. Hushmail uses OpenPGP standards. If public encryption keys are available to both recipient and sender (either both are Hushmail users or have uploaded PGP keys to the Hush keyserver), Hushmail can convey authenticated, encrypted messages in both directions.
