This weekend's news that Georgia's voter registration system has been likened to an open bank safe door paints a bleak picture of the state of election security as we enter the midterm's final day. A series of security vulnerabilities have been discovered that would allow even a low-skilled hacker to compromise the system and potentially affect the election itself. The fact that it took only five security professionals a trivial amount of time to identify these vulnerabilities highlights the need for improved cybersecurity efforts, particularly in government institutions. However, the lack of accountability and lax approach to cybersecurity from some states is alarming, with laws that would have criminalized routine security research being vetoed by governors. This raises concerns about the effectiveness of current measures to protect election systems and underscores the importance of making one's voice heard to effect change.
