****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*:
