## Verdict

Proton Drive is the storage product of the Proton suite. The encryption story is solid; the account context is identical to Proton Mail. Useful when you already use Proton.

## Strengths

- End-to-end encrypted file storage tied to the Proton account.
- Sharing controls with E2E preserved across recipients.

## Caveats

- Tied to a Proton account — same operator caveats as Proton Mail.
- Younger product than the rest of the Proton suite.
- Facts need re-verification by operator (last seeded 2026-01).
