Protecting a secure link with a password
It would be great if we could additionally protect a secure link with a password. This would prevent anyone who happens to have the link or virus scanners that check every link in an email from accessing the sensitive data directly.

when is the option to add password protection to secure links??
While the current one time access limit is useful, a custom password would add an extra layer of security, especially for sensitive content.
Previously, I used a competitor’s service (bit..) that offered this feature, and I found it very practical.
Now, my workaround in protonpass is to nest the Proton Pass link inside the other password-protected "secure links" before sharing, but this feels like an inelegant solution.Please fix this asap!

That's right, this feature is very much needed.
There was a case where someone left a Proton Pass asset sharing URL on a shared computer, and when I saw it and accessed it, it opened right away. This is dangerous! I don't want this to happen to me. This is a serious security issue for users who are unaware of it.
