The FBI and Department of Homeland Security say hackers, and potentially nation-state actors, have gained access to U.S. election systems. This comes as no surprise to Allyn Lynd, cybersecurity expert at CriticalStart.
“Currently the FBI, Department of Homeland Security (DHS), Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), U.S. Cyber Command, and various other government agencies do their best to react to cybersecurity threats during elections,” he said. “While they do a good job reacting to reports of fraud and cyber attacks, and validating whether or not they occurred, this is all reactionary and does not amount to detection or prevention.”
