Biden Admin Urges Court Not To Allow Release Of ‘Secret Report’ On Dominion Voting Machines

Top officials at a U.S. federal cybersecurity agency are urging a judge not to authorize at this time the release of a report that analyzes Dominion Voting Systems equipment in Georgia, arguing doing so could assist hackers trying to “undermine election security.”

The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) was recently provided an unredacted copy of the report, which was prepared by J. Alex Halderman, director of the University of Michigan Center for Computer Security and Society.

The report discusses “potential vulnerabilities in Dominion ImageCast X ballot marking devices,” or electronic voting devices, according to the government.

While CISA supports public disclosure of any vulnerabilities and associated mitigation measures with election equipment, allowing the release of the report at this point “increases the risk that malicious actors may be able to exploit any vulnerabilities and threaten election security,” government lawyers said in a Feb. 10 filing in the case.

The case was brought in 2017 by good-government groups and voters who say the lack of paper ballots undermines the voting process.

U.S. District Judge Amy Totenberg, an Obama nominee overseeing the case, was urged by CISA to reject attempts to release a redacted version of Halderman’s report for now.

CISA officials want to review the information in the report and help Dominion resolve the vulnerabilities identified before the report is released. They said they weren’t able to provide a date by which they’ll be finished.

Totenberg must weigh the request against the wishes of Georgia Secretary State Brad Raffensperger, a Republican and one of the defendants, who called in late January for the release to happen immediately. more here

  3. I can’t wait to watch the fallout.

    And

    It WILL cross NORTH INTO this country. Lets see what Dominion did for Mr. Turdeau. I have still never heard anyone I know or met say that they Voted for Dicktaker Turdeau.

  4. What the hell. Grandpa-dementia-I sn’t-home-any-more’s handlers are using him to shield every illegal, unconstitutional totalitarian action or word, that obamination can think of!

    Every damn honest Congress person of any party, needs to overwhelm the courts and congressional agenda with impeachment processes.

  5. “…arguing doing so could assist hackers trying to “undermine election security.”

    Implying that the undermining of security hasn’t already happened – because how those Dominion systems were used was deliberately based on remote access/control. Yeah, and THAT’s not undermining their original security.

    A feature, not a security bug.

    This stinks – we need to put Dominion at Congress’s feet and have their (Dominion’s, not Congress’s!) head cut off. On second thought, where’s that Grim Reaper when we need him?…

  6. “doing so could assist hackers trying to “undermine election security.“ I hate to tell the CISA morons the election has been hacked. We need get the facts out and pound them into liberal’s heads with a 10lb shop hammer.

  9. I am no computer or voting machine expert
    but I constantly hear about multiple operating
    systems,modems,1000’s of files,tabulators, ETC.
    that are on these machines.The more the complicated the more the cheat.These machines were connected to Italy,Germany and other countries. Why?

  10. IT’S TOO HARD TO TRACK ALL THE SHITSTORMS..IT HAS TO BE THE MAIN STRATEGY OF THE WORST ADMINISTRATION IN U.S. HISTORY..FEED THE CHAOS…OR IS THAT GIVING THEM TOO MUCH CREDIT FOR BEING INTELLIGENT????

    CUE THE D.C. EARTHQUAKE!!

  12. So, In other words, reading a report on how the 2020 election was hacked and stolen by the democrats, might assist someone in the future to hack and steal an election away from the democrats.

  13. The courts are helping the elections to be stolen. They are required to assist in hiding our crooked election system the democrats have put in place, from being exposed to the public. How are they being paid off, and by whom ???

  18. Class… class… please put down your iPens, and take out your Shocked!(TM) kabuki masks.

    The loyalty officers of CISA, have finally killed the last symptoms of doing the department’s mission. (Feel free to put your masks on, and cheer.) They now can only do propaganda. (Clap, please.) When not doing propaganda, they have no, other, ability left. (Be careful, when you swoon… those masks aren’t padded to, newer, betterer, OSHA propaganda standards.)

    [For the peanut gallery, blissfully inexperienced with computer security wonkery: The (white hat) procedure for known vulnerabilities is — inform the maintainer(s) of the issue, give them a standard time frame to fix (typically 90 days — so 90 days after 2017), release the vulnerability to the public — so they can fix or abandon the product, according to their choice. This had been CISA’s procedure, for as long as CISA was. Until now.]

    They are being paid by the people that hired them. To do the job they’re doing. Not in any way underhanded. Only in your face if you just woke up.

    This is who they are. That is why they are chosen to do what they do.
