ROYAL OAK – Cybersecurity expert Dan Lohrmann talks about the ongoing challenge of ransomware, the DDoS attacks around the world, including in the United States that have brought down some major eCommerce websites. Lohrmann also talked about a recent article he wrote that said the recounts in Michigan and Wisconsin are unlikely to reveal cyber hacks are very unlikely. It may be theoretically possible to having it happen is a long leap, Lohrmann said.
In his column, Lohrmann made the point:
There is no doubt that all states need improvements to the voting machines used and the processes followed to count the votes. These improvements should begin immediately for upcoming elections in 2017 and beyond. Audits as described by Wired magazine make sense moving forward.
