WOULD NOT PREVENT VOTING


Related topics:
Election Security


The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and the Cybersecurity and
Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) are issuing this announcement to raise
awareness that Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks on election
infrastructure, or adjacent infrastructure that support election operations,
could hinder public access to election information but would not impact the
security or integrity of election processes.
