Workshop on Digital Security for Journalists

by Prasad Krishna

The Foundation for Media Professionals and the Centre for Internet and Society (CIS) are jointly hosting a workshop on 'Digital Security for Journalists' in New Delhi on January 16, 2015.

This workshop will be a hands-on training — so all journalists are strongly encouraged to bring their laptops and smartphones — on how to assess security threats, how to protect your sources, how to prevent your ISP from snooping on your communications, and how to harden your computer's security.

This workshop furthers CIS's work as part of the Cyber Stewards Network with aid of a grant from the International Development Research Centre, and the space for this workshop has been provided by the Times of India.

About Us

The Centre for Internet and Society (CIS) is a non-profit organisation that undertakes interdisciplinary research on internet and digital technologies from policy and academic perspectives. The areas of focus include digital accessibility for persons with disabilities, access to knowledge, intellectual property rights, openness (including open data, free and open source software, open standards, open access, open educational resources, and open video), internet governance, telecommunication reform, digital privacy, and cyber-security. The research at CIS seeks to understand the reconfiguration of social processes and structures through the internet and digital media technologies, and vice versa.

Through its diverse initiatives, CIS explores, intervenes in, and advances contemporary discourse and regulatory practices around internet, technology, and society in India, and elsewhere.
