The unc.fyi [kol] Closure program is an advanced account protection program that provides maximum security for our clients. It mitigates security threats by combining AI with human analysis.

The unc.fyi [kol] Closure  program provides:

Advanced security protection, including strict challenges for suspicious login attempts.

Greater visibility on logins and account changes in their security logs.

24/7 escalation of suspicious login attempts to security analysts who will review assessments made by the automated systems.

Support requests related to account security will automatically be escalated to trained security specialists.

This makes it much harder for an attacker to take over your account. However, accounts shared by multiple people without two-factor authentication may not want to enable Proton Sentinel at this time as they have a higher chance of being challenged during logins.

Most companies do not implement zero-access encryption either because they sell your private information to advertisers (Google, Facebook, etc.) or because the technical challenges of implementing it are too great.

Instead, they might use regular encryption where they retain control over the encryption keys. This is like storing the key to the lock with the lock itself and creates many vulnerabilities. For example, if servers are ever hacked, your private conversations can be leaked (like in the Yahoo! breach(new window) of all 3 billion of its accounts).

Furthermore, this approach also leaves data open for misuse, either by rogue employees or unscrupulous third parties, such as in the Cambridge Analytica/Facebook scandal(new window). This data can also be made accessible to government surveillance agencies or sold outright to advertisers.

We drastically reduce these security and privacy vulnerabilities by using zero-access encryption to ensure that we ourselves do not have access to your data. That way, even if somehow our servers are breached, the contents of users' private emails will still be encrypted. Both zero-access encryption and end-to-end encryption are essential to ensure good protection against data breaches and privacy violations in the digital age, and for this reason, they are highly recommended by experts(new window) and important for complying with data protection laws such as the GDPR law.
