CPJ launches digital safety kits for journalists

The Committee to Protect Journalists on Wednesday launched a safety kit for journalists in the wake of growing digital threats.

The kit, produced by CPJ’s Emergencies Response Team, combines six safety notes on different topics.

Each note contains practical advice to help journalists navigate digital threats like phishing, and one for the specific scenario of crossing borders.

The kit is available in French, Spanish, and Russian and the text is licensed under Creative Commons (images are not covered). Journalists and media organisations are free to use and share the text of the kit under the terms of the license (CC BY-NC-ND 4.0).
