The [Gentoo Foundation](https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Foundation:Main_Page) has
partnered with [Nitrokey](https://www.nitrokey.com/) to equip all Gentoo developers
with free [Nitrokey Pro 2](https://www.nitrokey.com/files/doc/Nitrokey_Pro_factsheet.pdf)
devices. Gentoo developers will use the Nitrokey devices to store cryptographic
keys for signing of git commits and software packages, GnuPG keys, and SSH
accounts.

Thanks to the Gentoo Foundation and Nitrokey’s discount, each Gentoo developer
is eligible to receive one free Nitrokey Pro 2. To receive their Nitrokey, developers
will need to register with their `@gentoo.org` email address at the [dedicated order
form](https://gentoo.nitrokey.com/).
A [Nitrokey Pro 2 Guide](https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:Infrastructure/Nitrokey_Pro_2_guide_for_Gentoo_developers) is available
on the Gentoo Wiki with FAQ & instructions for integrating Nitrokeys into developer
workflow.
