Election Security

Election security refers to the measures and practices implemented to protect the electoral process, including the integrity of voting systems, the accuracy of vote counts, and the safeguarding of voter information. It encompasses physical security at polling places, cybersecurity to protect voting machines and electronic systems from hacking and tampering, and legal safeguards to ensure that elections are conducted fairly and transparently. Election security is essential to maintain public trust in the democratic process, prevent fraud, and ensure that the will of the voters is accurately reflected in election outcomes. It also involves collaboration among government officials, election administrators, law enforcement, and technology experts to address potential threats and vulnerabilities.
