Cryptoparty For Journalists
A journalist's thread model differs severly from the dangers a common user has to face. If someone spies my personal e-mail, they might get to know which movie my friends and I plan to watch tonight. If governments find out dissidents contacting an international newspaper both journalists and dissidents are in immediate danger of being arrested or even worse. Cryptoparties for journalists are therefore going beyond the usual scope of these events. The main target is to provide techniques and methods to protect oneself and one's sources.
