== Tor in Delhi : User Sessions
This page summarises the research carried out at two user sessions held in Delhi during February 2019.
== New Delhi activity 1
**Date and Time:** Tuesday, 12th, 2019 - 10 AM - 1 PM\\

== Activity: Tor Training, threat model exercise - 11 people (mixed crowd: journalists, lawyers, technologists)\\
**User group:** Journalists and lawyers\\
**Audience size:** 11 people\\
**During the threat modelling exercise, the following were found to be most recurring:**\\
**Assets:** mails from publishers and sources (for journalists) and private communication with clients (for lawyers), especially clients from politically heated cases or cases being followed in the media\\
**Threats:** from the government, and from specific political or personal adversaries (for both journalists and lawyers)
**The questions that were repeatedly asked:\\**
- The tools I can use along with Tor to make my assets secure?(mail clients, etc.)\\
- What about my communication from other mobile apps? \\
- Does using Tor with VPN make it more secure for me?\\
- Can I hide the fact that I am using Tor? (most participants were unaware of bridges and pluggable transports)\\
**Suggestions and ideas from the audience:\\**
- Including a course or module on cyber security in the journalism and law curriculums in the country\\
- organising Tor sessions on campuses of prominent journalism and law institutes in the country to train professionals early on. \\
- a general interest in participating in #tor-south meetings.
