Today, I was proud to introduce the Prevent #Election #Hacking Act of 2018 to combat the threat posed by foreign adversaries—This bipartisan bill creates a new competition that rewards #cybersecurity experts who are able to identify vulnerabilities in our election infrastructure.
Russia & other foreign actors who wish us harm don’t have to hack into every single board of election to undermine our democratic process; it just takes a couple to achieve their goal of eroding public trust in our electoral system.
Unfortunately, many state & local election boards don’t even know when they’ve been hacked—either because they don’t know what to look for or don’t have the #tech needed to help spot an intrusion. The new bipartisan bill I intro'd w/ @RepJohnKatko will improve our understanding.
That is the job of @ODNIgov anyhow. Why is a another bill on the same topic required? Renew the VRA !!!
Are you going to make voting machines easier to get ahold of for vulnerability testing? Bug bounty? Crowd sourcing? Hopefully not just going to cater to the cyber consulting industry.
Like Twitter and Facebook?
The DMCA allows for good faith research but the challenge is getting access to modern voting tech. Vendors don’t grant access to infosec. Only in rare cases have the allowed assessments by qualified third-party pen testers. For this bill to work, the vendors need to participate.
@VotingVillageDC Heads up.
