A new platform called Psst has launched to help tech and government workers report wrongdoing anonymously and securely.
Users submit encrypted text-only reports into a “digital safe” at www.psst.org. These stay locked unless others report similar issues, helping protect identities and reveal patterns of misconduct.
Only Psst’s legal team can access matched reports, ensuring legal privilege and shielding whistleblowers from retaliation.
The tool avoids uploads to reduce traceability and plans to automate matching using secure hardware enclaves.
Psst arrives amid growing concern that insiders fear speaking out on security, safety and ethics—especially in fast-moving tech sectors.
Businesses should review their own reporting systems and ensure staff can raise concerns safely and confidentially.
It is costly for us to have our systems down and really appreciate the speed that your team respond to any issue we have. I don’t believe we have had any problems which you have not been resolved.
