GlobaLeaks started with the premise that Anonymous Whistleblowing can be easy and secure.
The GlobaLeaks suite of software will empower people to stand up anonymously no matter what their definition of "whistleblowing" is. The person or organization running the software will be able to customize the platform to best suit its needs. GlobaLeaks is designed with flexibility in mind, while enabling maximum level of privacy and security by default.
Started early 2011, GlobaLeaks 2 has been rewritten from scratch in 2012 with a new modular design, completely configurable and customizable via web administration interface.
