It opens doors for independent researchers to identify vulnerabilities, ultimately aiming to strengthen electoral integrity. The SECURIT Act, part of the Intelligence Authorization Act, focuses on boosting election cybersecurity while addressing foreign interference. Unified efforts between election vendors and security experts are emphasized as critical to safeguarding the electoral process.
