****Kevin O'Gorman: QubesOS: a toolkit for secure applications*

*Description*:
SecureDrop is a whistleblowing system designed to protect the anonymity 
of sources against highly-capable adversaries. It's also not exactly 
user-friendly. FPF is building a next-generation SecureDrop workstation 
for journalists using the Qubes OS (https://qubes-os.org/) as a base. 
This presentation covers some of the properties of Qubes that make the 
workstation possible while preserving the level of security that 
SecureDrop has historically provided.

*About Kevin*:
Kevin is a Newsroom Support Engineer at the Freedom of the Press 
Foundation, based in Toronto, Canada. His involvement in digital 
security stems from his time spent working in various roles with media 
organizations including the CBC and The Globe And Mail, where he led 
security workshops for journalists and worked with FPF to implement the 
first Canadian SecureDrop instance.

*Nathan Cluff: Space Night Talk Show*

*Description*:
