Welcome to this week’s Threat Source newsletter — the perfect place to get caught up on all things Talos from the past week.
No one really likes talking about election security. It’s a sticky subject, costs lots of money and doesn’t come with an easy fix. But that doesn’t mean the conversation shouldn’t happen.
With another presidential election just around the corner, we decided to take up the topic and examine the approach a potential attacker may take to disrupting a democratic election. Matt Olney took a deep dive into their psyche here, and wrote about what may happen in a real-life attack scenario.
He and the rest of the Beers with Talos crew broke down these scenarios more in this week’s Beers with Talos episode, too.
We also have our weekly Threat Roundup, which you can find on the blog every Friday afternoon. There, we go over the most prominent threats we’ve seen (and blocked) over the past week.
