“Docs in Proton Drive makes it effortless to stay secure and private. Users don't have to lift a finger or worry about complicated security measures—Proton's got it all covered. In a world where Big Tech constantly breaches privacy and mishandles data, Docs offers a seamless and reliable solution for document editing and collaboration. Our users can confidently create and share documents, resting easy knowing their information is protected.” – Singh, Proton
