We are happy to announce that Arch Linux has partnered with Nitrokey [0] to equip its staff with free Nitrokey devices. We will use the Nitrokey devices to store cryptographic keys for signing of git commits, emails and software packages, GnuPG keys, and SSH accounts. Thanks to the Nitrokey’s discount and the Arch Linux funds, each Arch Linux staff is eligible to receive one free Nitrokey Pro 2 or hopefully soon the new Nitrokey 3. To receive their Nitrokey, eligible staff will need to register with their @archlinux.org email address at the dedicated order form. Further instructions about this process will be sent to our staff. A Nitrokey Guide will be made available on the Arch Linux Wiki with FAQ & instructions for integrating Nitrokeys into our workflow. Nitrokey Pro 2 provides strong reliable hardware encryption. It has open source firmware, is open hardware and can help you to: sign Git commits; decrypt emails and files; secure server access; and protect accounts against identity theft via two-factor authentication (one-time passwords). Furthermore, the new Nitrokey 3 will support additional features like FIDO. Nitrokey is a German IT security company committed to open source hardware and software. Nitrokey develops and produces USB keys for data encryption, email encryption (PGP/GPG, S/MIME), and secure account logins (SSH, two-factor authentication via OTP and FIDO). Besides their hardware products they offer services, consulting and help you with concept, development and certification of your specific security solutions. Nitrokey is proud to support Arch Linux in further securing its infrastructure and contributing to a secure open source Linux ecosystem. [0] https://www.nitrokey.com/
