two cybersecurity firms, Fidelis Cybersecurity and Mandiant, independently corroborated Crowdstrike’s assessment that Russian hackers infiltrated DNC networks, having found that the two groups that hacked into the DNC used malware and methods identical to those used in other attacks attributed to the same Russian hacking groups.

And yet the Election Machines themselves are NOT hooked up to the internet.

Only the Sec of State Websites, which report the results are on servers.

Even though hackers might mess with THOSE sites,
the Sec of State can always change them back to the original info,
which would show who won and who lost.

Could this merely be an attempt to provide cover for the DNC theft of an election, like deleting enough GOP votes to turn the tide in Hillary's favor~!~!

Hillary Clinton broke government rules by using a private email server without approval for her work as U.S. secretary of state, an internal government watchdog said on Wednesday.

The long-awaited report by the State Department inspector general was the first official audit of the controversial arrangement to be made public.

The report concluded that Clinton would not have been allowed to use the server in her home had she asked the department officials in charge of information security. The report said that staff who later raised concerns were told to keep quiet. Several suspected hacking attempts in 2011 were never reported to department information security officials, in breach of department rules, it said.

The Security Consulting team here at Fidelis specializes in investigations of critical security incidents by advanced threat actors. Last week, after Guccifer 2.0 claimed responsibility for the intrusion into the Democratic National Committee’s (DNC) servers, we were provided with the malware samples from the CrowdStrike investigation. We performed an independent review of the malware and other data (filenames, file sizes, IP addresses) in order to validate and provide our perspective on the reporting done by CrowdStrike.  This blog post provides a summary of our findings.

Brian Varner, a security researcher at Symantec, said the electronic voting machine is another frontier for hackers.

Varner also cited multiple vulnerabilities in the way voter results are delivered. In one scenario, he described how a hacker could intercept the signals from an electronic voting machine connected to the Internet, similar to how hackers could intercept a user's data when he or she connects to WiFi at a coffee shop.

"We don't know what the transport network looks like between this machine and the actual database server that's aggregating the votes and then sending it up for live broadcast," he said.
