“为新闻业建立数字安全：选定问题的调查”是教科文组织因特网自由丛书第四版的新标题。为了提高全球对与数字化发展相关的新出现的安全威胁的认识，教科文组织在本组织促进在线和离线表达自由以及实施联合国关于记者安全和有罪不罚问题的机构间计划的持续努力范围内委托进行了这项研究。新闻业的数字化日益发展，为新闻业的生产者和消费者带来了前所未有的好处，与此同时，也出现了令人担忧的趋势。因此，该出版物确定了至少12种数字威胁，包括非法或任意的数字监视、位置跟踪以及在目标不知情的情况下利用软件和硬件。考虑的其他示例有：网络钓鱼、假域攻击、中间人（MitM）攻击和拒绝服务（DoS）。虽然并非所有为新闻业做出贡献的人都是全职记者，但这项研究采取了一种包容性的方法，与任何有可能成为新闻业目标的行为者都相关。事实上，所提出的许多观点也直接关系到一般人权维护者、新闻工作者的消息来源，甚至直接关系到仅仅将数字通信用于个人用途的行为者。在审查世界各地的案件时，该出版物为一系列行为者提供了资源。简而言之，它审视了不断演变的威胁，并评估了预防、保护和先发制人的措施。它表明，新闻业的数字安全包括但也超越了技术层面。本出版物还概述了致力于解决数字安全问题的参与者和举措，并找出了需要提高认识的知识差距。本报告向政府、新闻撰稿人和新闻来源、新闻机构、培训人员、公司和国际组织提出了建议。这些见解对政策制定者、民间社会组织、媒体公司和一系列新闻从业者都很有价值，使他们更好地了解新闻安全面临的新挑战。
“Building digital safety for journalism: a survey of selected issues” is the new title of the fourth edition in the UNESCO Internet freedom series. In order to improve global understanding of emerging safety threats linked to digital developments, UNESCO commissioned this research within the Organization’s on-going efforts to promote freedom of expression online and offline and implement the UN Inter-Agency Plan on the Safety of Journalists and the Issue of Impunity. Parallel to the growing digitisation of journalism which brings unprecedented benefits to both producers and consumers of journalism, there are worrying trends that have emerged. This publication thus identifies at least 12 digital threats, including illegal or arbitrary digital surveillance, location tracking, and software and hardware exploits without the knowledge of the target. Further examples that are considered are: phishing, fake domain attacks, Man-in-the-Middle (MitM) attacks, and Denial of Service (DoS). While not all the people who contribute to journalism are fulltime journalists, the research takes an inclusive approach that is relevant to any actor who is in danger of being targeted for doing journalism. Indeed, many points made are also of direct relevance to human rights defenders in general, to people who are sources for journalists, and even to actors who simply make use of digital communications for personal use. In examining cases worldwide, this publication serves as a resource for a range of actors. In a nutshell, it surveys the evolving threats, and assesses preventive, protective and pre-emptive measures. It shows that digital security for journalism encompasses, but also goes beyond, the technical dimension. This publication also gives an overview of actors and initiatives working to address digital safety, as well as identifying gaps in knowledge that call for awareness-raising. Recommendations are made for governments, journalism contributors and sources, news organizations, trainers, corporations and international organisations. These insights are valuable for policymakers, civil society organisations, media companies, and a range of journalistic actors, offering them enhanced understanding about new challenges to journalism safety.
