About the Project

This multi-year FFDW award supported infrastructure, user experience, and security enhancements for tools used by journalists around the globe. It’s also being used to explore a zero-trust architecture for SecureDrop, an open-source news and information submission system used by newsrooms worldwide for secure document exchange and communication between journalists and anonymous sources. Overall, the award helps to further the FPF’s efforts to preserve historically critical information, such as its comprehensive database of press freedom violations in the United States and government data that belongs in the public sphere.
