As the midterm elections approach, the U.S. cybersecurity agency has unveiled its election infrastructure security plan, just 40 days before the polls. While the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) pledges support aimed at regaining public trust, election officials express concerns that the plan arrives too late to effectively mitigate risks. The agency’s recent actions come in the wake of budget cuts that have weakened relationships with state officials. Critics are questioning the overall effectiveness of the new measures as the nation prepares for critical elections.
