GOT A TIP?
Please reach out on mgdn.11 [Signal] or man1sha@protonmail.com for story ideas, tips, or leads. I have half a decade of experience working with sources in high-risk states, and will do my best to always protect you. If you are worried about surveillance in general, you should take precautions:
CHAT MESSENGERS
Signal is the gold-standard for encrypted communications, message me on mgdn.11 [Signal] after downloading it here: signal.org/download. When you add my username in the search function, I'll pop up as available. Signal keeps a record of when an account is set up and the phone number used, which can be sensitive information. I do not recommend Whatsapp, Telegram or text messages for sensitive communications.
VPN
Please download and use a VPN before navigating to my Guardian PGP link or Protonmail. ProtonVPN has a free and safe option.
You can securely reach me on: man1sha@protonmail.com . Protonmail is end-to-end encrypted only if you are also using a protonmail account, and the email subject lines aren’t encrypted so please use something mundane.
Protonmail accounts are free and easy to create, and do not involve a phone number for registration, so you can protect your identity. Get one here.You can also email me at manisha.ganguly[at]theguardian.com using PGP, my public key is here. Please go here first for a guide on secure communications with the Guardian.
Securedrop
If you wish to hand over documents anonymously, you can use the Guardian’s Securedrop. The link has a guide on how you can do this. The SecureDrop software has been through independent security reviews to ensure that it meets stringent confidentiality and anti-leakage requirements.
