Haven is an open-source project that Snowden developed in conjunction with Freedom of the Press Foundation (https://freedom.press/) and Guardian Project (https://guardianproject.info/). You can find directions and links for downloading and installing it on the latter organization's Github page (https://guardianproject.github.io/haven/).
