## Bringing SecureDrop to Qubes

This project aims to make journalists' experience working with SecureDrop less onerous while retaining the current security and privacy features SecureDrop provides. We're doing that by moving the set of journalist-facing tools, which currently spans multiple Tails installations and requires physical USB drives to move data, to a single computer running multiple virtual machines, with data moved as automatically and transparently as possible between otherwise isolated VMs.
This project aims to improve journalists' experience working with SecureDrop while retaining the current security and privacy features SecureDrop provides. The journalist tools currently span multiple machines and require data to be moved using physical USB drives. We are re-designing this cumbersome process by moving the journalist workflow to a single computer running multiple virtual machines with [Qubes OS](https://qubes-os.org). Data is moved as automatically and transparently as possible between otherwise isolated VMs.
