Proton Lumo 2.0: Zero-Access AI for Business Security

Proton has launched Lumo 2.0, a major upgrade to its zero-access encrypted AI assistant. This new version aims to address security risks from mainstream AI tools in businesses. Here's the thing: Lumo is built so that Proton itself cannot read user conversations, files, or memories. This differs from most AI assistants that log and use user data for training. Proton says this protects confidential data that employees might otherwise feed into less secure AI tools. Lumo 2.0 Max scores 240% higher than its predecessor on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index. New features include advanced reasoning, image recognition, and web search, all protected by zero-access encryption. The business version, Lumo for Business, now offers admin-controlled access management, keeping company data off US-jurisdiction infrastructure. The bottom line: Lumo 2.0 offers powerful AI capabilities while maintaining strong privacy protections, which is crucial for businesses navigating AI security concerns.
