Letter from Synack Cybersecurity, August 2024

08.05.2024

To whom it may concern:

Synack is the nation’s premier Penetration Testing as a Service company, harnessing a vetted community of the world’s most talented cybersecurity researchers to deliver comprehensive security testing and vulnerability management for our customers.

Since 2020, Democracy Live has engaged Synack to conduct continuous, independent testing of the OmniBallot balloting portal. Synack researchers put the OmniBallot portal through ongoing rigorous security testing. Synack researchers conduct 365 testing on OmniBallot and its networks, searching for potential vulnerabilities. Our testing process draws on a pool of over 1,500 trusted cybersecurity researchers who are incentivized to find vulnerabilities.

Findings from a recent Synack security report showed nearly 400 independent researchers tested OmniBallot for vulnerabilities over 980 hours. The security report, available through Democracy Live, found zero vulnerabilities in OmniBallot.

At Synack, we are working with partners like Democracy Live by making it harder for attackers to compromise any part of our election infrastructure. Synack researchers will continue to independently test the OmniBallot portal through the 2024 Presidential election and beyond.

Sincerely,

Jay Kaplan · CEO & Co-Founder
SYNACK · The Premier Security Testing Platform
