Cyber attacks on democracy


We've heard a lot about alleged cyber attacks and interference in elections over the pas few months - the surprise outcome from the US elections, the French avoiding online voting for their current Presidential elections and now the NCSC being galvanised to avoid the upcoming UK general elections being compromised (see article above).

You can't help but think that this is only the start of the these type of attacks, but what can be done to prevent them?
And will we always have to cast a vote by visiting a polling station and casting our vote with paper and pencil (as we do in the UK)? Can we ever move to electronic voting whilst maintaining the integrity of our democratic systems?

    Which particular intervention in Ukraine do you mean?


    As for training in Lithuanian forests, vs exercising in fields near Dublin, I cannot imagine that Russia does not have comparable landscapes to whatever they could find in ROI, whilst Britain does not have comparable landscapes to what may be found in Lithuania. - much like when forces train in Norway, it's about the snow and cold weather training over the proximity to Russia.
