We know the Senate knows how deep their action cuts into U.S. national security.
That pisses off hacking supergroups like the old and young white hats at DEF CON.

The latest 2018 DEF CON Report from its Voting Village is the DEF CON community's continuing response to the Russian hacking of our elections. The Voting Village originated in 2017 to invite all states' election and tech officials to share information and findings to pass on to the American public.
The last chapters of this year's report are recommended (est. 16 pages).
-- Election Security is National Security;
-- Technical Findings,
-- Recommendation: Make A Crisis Communications Plan Before Your Website is Hacked
-- Conclusion
-- Next Steps
-- APPENDIX #4: Firewall Democracy: Best Practices for Securing Americas Vulnerable Voting Infrastructure
