GlobaLeaks

GlobaLeaks is a free and open source software intended to enable secure and anonymous whistleblowing initiatives.

Based on its design principle and threat model, the software is recognized as a Digital Public Good (DPG) by the Digital Public Goods Alliance.

The project started on 15 December 2010, and the first software prototype was announced on 6 September 2011.

Relevant figures in the first development are Arturo Filastò, Claudio Agosti, Fabio Pietrosanti, Giovanni Pellerano, and Michele Orrù.

GlobaLeaks utilizes Tor Onion Services to guarantee the anonymity of the source.

Once the submission is performed the data is encrypted and made available only to configured recipients. The platform does not store anything permanently. Information and files that are submitted are deleted as soon as possible due to a strict data retention policy.

The process is generally improved by suggesting sources and recipients to use Qubes OS or Tails operating systems while connecting to the platform.[citation needed]

By 2023, GlobaLeaks has been internationalized in over 90 languages and implemented by several thousands of projects and initiatives. The vast range of adopters include independent media, activists, media agencies, and corporations.
