Enabling data recovery with end-to-end encryption
Post Body

Hi everyone,

Since some of you have asked, we've put together an article detailing how data recovery works in Proton Mail.

The challenge that Proton faces is, how can we allow users to recover data if they have forgotten their password if we have no ability to decrypt user data? It turns out that doing this in a secure way that still preserves privacy is technically quite difficult, but not impossible. For those that are interested in how we did it, you can read about how it works here.
