Could a rogue hacker or malicious code quietly flip votes inside a digital ballot box? This week on the Security Boulevard Podcast, Tom Hollingsworth and Kate Scarcella cut through election-cycle hysteria to break down the technical realities of voting infrastructure. They explore the rigorous safeguards that protect the ballot—from air-gapped systems and strict physical chains of custody to paper audit trails and statistical anomaly detection. Discover why altering voting code at scale is a logistical nightmare for bad actors, and why the real cybersecurity frontier isn't tampered machines, but the rapid surge of AI-generated disinformation designed to manipulate public perception. This and more on the Security Boulevard Podcast, part of the Futurum Podcast Network and Futurum Media.
