7. Has this project received OTF support before?

If you're applying for a Red Team Lab engagement for a current OTF project, please skip to question 10.

For example, what are its aims or mission? What tools or initiatives does it work on? You might want to include links to websites, apps, or social media.

9. Why is this project important for internet freedom? *

For example, how does it benefit people in repressive contexts or strengthen the internet freedom ecosystem?

10. Is there a Red Team Lab vendor you would prefer to work with?

We can't guarantee we'll be able to match you with your chosen vendor. All our vendors are highly qualified and have overlapping expertise.

If you're flexible, please indicate that in your response. Ideally though, we can have an idea of when you need the report prepared.

We estimate 80 hours of work per engagement, which spans around four months from scoping to final report delivery. If you're applying to recommend a public safety audit, this doesn't apply to you.

Try to focus your answer on why the app's privacy and security are important to internet freedom.
