Breaking: Major National Cybersecurity Exercise on Election Day; What??? https://jonrappoport.substack.com/p/major-national-cybersecurity-exercise-on-election-day?utm_source=cross-post&publication_id=806546&post_id=150556404&utm_campaign=702469&isFreemail=true&r=djel3&triedRedirect=true&utm_medium=email&fbclid=IwY2xjawGEvKlleHRuA2FlbQIxMAABHRQwcZzj1A3wccWxJA4jGB4fjXq6MZsGsC_7cecB6F7chin66jlFsw16Eg_aem_ll2ZyTijFGbjAitWxFAeFw Background: “AFCEA [Armed Forces Communications & Electronics Association International] Atlanta [Chapter] Homeland Security Conference on Critical Infrastructure, November 6-7, 2024, with a large scale cybersecurity exercise on November 5, 2024” (link in footnote) —On Nov. 5, ELECTION DAY, there will be a special cybersecurity exercise at the Conference. Get this. The exercise is described as a large-scale interactive event, with participants from federal, state, county, city government agencies, academia, and industry. The exercise will simulate a cyber-attack on “critical infrastructure.” That’s right. It’s a so-called “Jack Voltaic”-type exercise, which was developed to test responses to attacks on large infrastructures. QUITE odd to schedule the exercise on Election Day.
