Freedom of the Press Foundation

Harlo Holmes is the Director of Digital Security at Freedom of the Press Foundation. She strives to help individual journalists in various media organizations become confident and effective in securing their communications within their newsrooms, with their sources, and with the public at large. She is a media scholar, software programmer, and activist; and is an adjunct professor at New York University.

“I’m looking forward to helping the next generation of trainers deeply understand, and think creatively around, the technologies we use to participate in a free society. Not only the technologies themselves, but how developers’ decisions in building these tools have such an impact on digital security.”
