ProtonMail
ProtonMail is a free and open-source web-based encrypted email service founded in 2013 at the CERN research facility by Jason Stockman, Andy Yen and Wei Sun. ProtonMail is designed as a zero-knowledge system,〔Zero-knowledge mail systems are mail systems that prevent access to the email messages it hosts to everyone, including the individuals or corporations hosting its data and/or operating such systems and, while such individuals or corporations may gain physical access to the messages in encrypted form, access in any human readable or machine readable form is blocked through its encryption mechanism, the keys to which are held only by the actual owners of the mailboxes.

ProtonMail is run by Proton Technologies AG, based in the Canton of Geneva, and its servers are located at two locations in Switzerland, outside of US and EU jurisdiction. The service received initial funding through a crowdfunding campaign and will be sustained long-term by multi-tiered pricing, although the default account setup is free. ProtonMail has approximately 500,000 users as of October 2015. == Features == ProtonMail accounts use two user passwords: a login password and mailbox password. The first authenticates the user into the ProtonMail system, whereas the second decrypts the user's electronic mailbox. This decryption takes place client-side in a web browser. The second password is known only to the user. ProtonMail's servers hold the user's data in encrypted form and password recovery is not possible nor can ProtonMail decrypt user messages under a court order. Similar to services like Snapchat and Telegram, ProtonMail also includes a message expiration feature that allows encrypted emails to self-destruct after a period of time.
