SecureDrop Hackathon

SecureDrop is a whistleblower submission system that media organizations use to securely accept documents from and communicate with anonymous sources. Originally written by Aaron Swartz, it's currently maintained by Freedom of the Press Foundation. Dozens of news organizations including the New York Times, the Washington Post, the Intercept, and many others now use SecureDrop.

When's the next hackathon?

For Aaron Swartz Day, we invite contributors to hack on SecureDrop on Saturday, 2021-11-13 and Sunday, 2021-11-14. Read on for details on how to get familiar with the platform.

Also feel free to make new tickets if you find anything confusing!
