CTCL Hosting a Webinar on Securing Automatic Voter Registration Data

Modernizing the National Voter Registration Act (NVRA) and implementing state Automatic Voter Registration (AVR) laws focuses on the secure and efficient transfer of data from one government agency to another. And the innovation of moving government data electronically rather than by paper presents both new opportunities and new risks.

Led by Noah Praetz, election cybersecurity consultant and former Election Director of Cook County, IL along with Maurice Turner, Senior Technologist at the Center for Democracy and Technology, this webinar will overview election security threats, how to protect voter registration data, and how to design a security system during AVR implementation that mitigates vulnerabilities.

Key topics of the webinar include:

  • Threats to voter data & where vulnerabilities occur

  • Best security practices when designing a data transfer system

  • Making your plan to upgrade technology
