Reflets.Info

https://reflets.info

Reflets.info was launched in 2010 by a journalist and a computer security expert. It aims to be an informative and investigative website on digital and information security systems. The organisation produces "information hacking", a term coined at the end of the 1990s, which consists of exploiting weaknesses, vulnerabilities, and flaws of information to extract what is accurate or hidden behind what has been published—in this case, to find the accurate facts behind that information.

Reflets.info was born out of observation: communicators and journalists have difficulties informing readers accurately. The organisation believes that the media should aim to show what is not working and that, often, information is communication.

Reflets.info receives revenue from readers' subscriptions. It does not produce news at the same pace as mainstream media, as its resources are not the same.

The organisation is a member of the Syndicate of Independent Online Information Press (SPIIL) and follows the Guide to Good Practice for SPIIL Members.
