# securedrop-client

The SecureDrop Client is a desktop application for journalists to communicate with sources and work with submissions on the

[SecureDrop Workstation](https://github.com/freedomofpress/securedrop-workstation). It runs within a [Qubes OS](https://www.qubes-os.org/intro/)

virtual machine that has no direct network access and opens files within individual, non-networked, disposable VMs.

This repository contains multiple components, including:

* `client`: desktop GUI application

* `export`: logic for exporting submissions

* `log`: centralized logging

* `qubesdb-tools`: tools for configuring non-Qubes-aware applications from

  QubesDB

* `proxy`: restricted HTTP proxy

* `whonix-config`: Whonix configuration for SecureDrop

* `workstation-config`: configuration for SecureDrop Workstation templates

Each component's folder has a README with more detail.

To learn more about architecture and our rationale behind our Qubes OS approach, see the

[SecureDrop Workstation readme](https://github.com/freedomofpress/securedrop-workstation/blob/main/README.md).

**IMPORTANT:** This project is currently undergoing a pilot study and should not be used in production environments.
