Freie-PresseMitteilungen.de: Opolis (http://www.opolis.eu) providing Secure Email Communication for Journalists

Today the Wall Street Journal and the Financial Times are running several articles about Yahoo Email accounts of several journalists having been hacked in China and Taiwan.

As a matter of fact, journalists sometimes undertake research on very sensitive topics, thereby often exchanging various documents and messages via Email, containing highly confidential information. It is absolutely essential to ensure that sensitive information between a journalist and an informant, but also in communicating with the editor´s office, can by no means be intercepted or interpreted by any unauthorized individuals. Needless to say that in some regions any leak can actually be very dangerous as well.

Also informants want to ensure that information and documents provided to a trusted journalist will be shared only on an as-needed basis. In essence, information shall only be accessible to the journalist or ? at best ? selected individuals around the journalist only, and should not be copied or forwarded to any third individuals. Even in case that this were allowed, the informant may want to know who the information has been shared with, and when and how.

Research processes of journalists sometimes require the transmission of very large documents, whereby standard Email applications ? leave alone that these are not secure ? do allow only limited volume transfer. And, journalists and informants would feel comfortable, if both could easily store all sensitive and confidential documents in encrypted mode with only authorized individuals having access.

Finally, any solution addressing these issues shall be affordable, easy to install and utmost user-friendly.
