Security News > 2020 > January > ProtonMail Launches Encrypted Calendar Application
ProtonMail has released the beta version of ProtonCalendar, its fully encrypted calendar application that aims to help users both keep track of their plans and keep their data private.
ProtonCalendar is an early beta release, but "Substantial developments" are planned for the project until its public release, including the ability to share the calendar with other ProtonMail users, or the option to send event invites to anyone, even non-ProtonMail users.
The calendar aims to help users plan events in a convenient, secure way by employing the same end-to-end encryption as ProtonMail, thus ensuring that user data remains protected even following a potential breach of ProtonMail servers.
"Our calendar stops private companies from spying on your schedule. For our users with heightened security needs, ProtonCalendar will prevent authoritarian regimes from seeing who you are meeting with and what you are doing," ProtonMail says.
At the moment, the calendar app is only available in the web version of ProtonMail, but iOS and Android mobile applications will be released in 2020, ProtonMail says.
