One in three small businesses experienced a cyberattack last year, costing each one a quarter-million dollars on average. The easiest way to prevent this? Store your credentials in a password manager and protect access to your resources with a VPN.
Starting today, teams can strengthen their security with our new Proton VPN and Pass Professional plan. It’s affordable at $10.99 per user/month and simple to set up — no IT help required.
Proton’s new secure access plan enables your team to:
- Secure access to business assets and resources by connecting to a VPN
- Create and store strong passwords, and securely share and manage items across your team
- Protect against phishing and uncover data breaches of third-party services

The plan to protect your business network
Data breaches and regulatory fines can both cause organizations significant damage. Whether it’s handling sensitive data in accordance with data regulations such as GDPR and HIPAA, or ensuring that your resources are protected from unauthorized access, staying secure and compliant can seem complicated.
Proton VPN and Pass helps you mitigate two of the most common risks that lead to data breaches: weak credentials and unsecured connections. Whether it’s a compromised email account, payment platform, or your website’s code, a single network breach can damage your reputation, cause financial losses, and result in hefty fines.
Proton VPN and Pass Professional gives you a strong layer of protection without adding any complexity to your team’s workflows. In fact, VPNs and password managers add efficiency by making logins easier and eliminating tedious access management tasks for your admins.
Here’s how Proton VPN and Pass prevent data breaches:
- Secure credentials — Proton Pass generates unique, strong passwords for your employees’ online accounts and protects them with end-to-end encryption. If you have any shared accounts, you can put those in vaults and control who has access to the vault. That way it’s easy to onboard or offboard employees, or update passwords instantly for everyone. Credentials are synced across accounts on all devices and platforms so team members can always access the data they need.
- Control access — Proton VPN sets up dedicated IP addresses to segment your network, letting you create different levels of access for different employees or teams. It’s simple to set up and allows you to deploy SSO with SCIM provisioning for easy access. Anyone who isn’t connected to the VPN won’t be able to access your internal network. Your team will be able to connect securely from anywhere on any device, even if they’re working remotely on untrusted WiFi. Additional layers of control such as two-factor authentication (2FA) protect against unauthorized access to your network.
- Prevent phishing — Phishing attacks are the number one breach vector, so VPN and Pass work together to block these at the source. Proton VPN includes a built-in malware protection feature, Netshield(nova janela), which stops malicious traffic. Meanwhile, Proton Pass lets your team members generate email aliases for third-party services, helping you filter out phishing emails and protecting your true email addresses from public disclosure. Additionally, by using Proton Pass to autofill credentials, you can avoid accidentally typing your password into fake login pages.
With Proton VPN and Pass Professional, you can purchase a comprehensive security bundle through just one vendor, reducing your reliance on different solutions or shadow IT. When you choose Proton for both your VPN and password manager, you get complementary security that protects all of your endpoints.
Business-grade protection based in Europe
Security providers may not be truly secure if they rely on third-party hosting, operate in US jurisdiction, or if their security practices aren’t transparent.
Proton is secure by design:
- Owned infrastructure — Proton’s core infrastructure is owned and managed by us in hardened data centers.
- Privacy-protecting jurisdiction — We’re based in Switzerland and customer data is stored end-to-end encrypted on European servers, protected by some of the world’s strongest privacy laws.
- Open-source and audited — Our code is open source so anyone can verify our security claims. Our security practices are independently audited and validated by recognized standards including ISO 27001 and SOC 2 Type II.
- Strong encryption — All Proton services use end-to-end and zero-access encryption to protect user data, so even in the event of a data leak, it would remain secure.
- Easy to use — The strongest security tools are worthless if your team doesn’t use them. Proton is simple to set up and onboard teams of any size.
Invest in your security for the long term
What you could end up paying for mistakes greatly outweighs what you spend on security.
