SecureDrop is an open-source whistleblower submission system that media organizations can use to securely accept documents from, and communicate with anonymous sources. It was originally created by the late Aaron Swartz and is currently managed by the Freedom of the Press Foundation. SecureDrop is a stable, mature project that is actively in use in newsrooms across the globe. Most feature development efforts are focused towards the SecureDrop Workstation, SecureDrop Client, and SecureDrop Protocol; see the "Future directions for SecureDrop" blog post for more information. By default, the documentation describes the most recent SecureDrop release. This is known as the stable version and is recommended for end users (Sources, Journalists, or Administrators). The latest documentation is automatically built from the most recent commit to the SecureDrop documentation repository. It is most useful for developers and contributors to the project. You can switch between versions of the documentation by using the toolbar in the bottom left corner of the Read the Docs screen. If you want to report a security issue , please use our bug bounty hosted by Bugcrowd. If filing the issue does not impact security, just create a GitHub Issue. SecureDrop is open source and released under the GNU Affero General Public License v3. en.txt is based off a new Diceware wordlist from the EFF. fr.txt is based off Matthieu Weber's translated diceware list and the French word list found in trezor/python-mnemonic (MIT licensed). A huge thank you to all SecureDrop contributors! You can find a list of code and documentation contributors in the "Contributors" tab on GitHub. SecureDrop is translated into many languages by a community of volunteers; please see our Weblate instance for details. Thanks to our friends at PyUp for sponsoring a subscription to their Python security database.

SecureDrop (englisch ‚Sicherer Einwurf‘) ist eine freie Plattform zur sicheren Kommunikation zwischen Journalisten und Whistleblowern. Die Webanwendung wurde ursprünglich unter dem Namen DeadDrop von Aaron Swartz, und Kevin Poulsen entwickelt. Die erste Instanz der Plattform wurde am 14. Mai 2013 unter dem Namen Strongbox von The New Yorker eingeführt. Nach dem Tod von Aaron Swartz wurde das Projekt im Oktober 2013 von der Freedom of the Press Foundation übernommen und unter dem Namen SecureDrop fortgeführt. Inzwischen gibt es Installationen von verschiedenen Organisationen, darunter sind auch The Guardian, The Washington Post, The Intercept,, die New York Times, die Süddeutsche Zeitung und der Heise-Verlag. 2016 erhielt SecureDrop den FSF Award.
