Protecting Democracy: Election Security
Election infrastructure—from voter registration databases to vote tabulation systems—is a high-value target for nation-state actors and disinformation campaigns. Octopyder XDR provides the unified, continuous defense needed to ensure the integrity, availability, and confidentiality of the electoral process at every level.
Securing the Full Electoral Lifecycle
Attacks on elections are often "cross-domain," moving from phishing campaigns (Identity) to voter databases (Cloud/Data) to voting machines (OT/Endpoint). Our XDR platform unifies these fragmented environments, providing the single pane of glass and rapid containment required to stop influence operations and manipulation attempts in real time.
- Rapid Incident Response: Prioritized, 24/7 IR for election-day threats.
- Supply Chain Trust: Continuous monitoring of third-party vendors (e.g., ballot printing, software updates).
Core Election Defense Pillars
1. Voter Database Integrity
Monitoring for mass data exports, unauthorized changes, and anomalous access to voter registration systems (VRS) to prevent manipulation or theft.
2. Voting System & OT Security
Non-disruptive monitoring of vote tabulation machines, network access control, and anomaly detection for potential physical or network tampering.
3. Identity & Credential Defense
Enforcing MFA for election officials and continuously monitoring for phishing and account takeover attempts targeting privileged access to core systems.
