Some of the voices we support with security
“Eliminating fear among journalists who might be worried about facing online retaliation and who don’t necessarily have the resources to think about their digital security — especially under duress — is really important. A physical token like the YubiKey takes away a lot of the guesswork and really just gets the job done in terms of being secure online.”
