What is "Make America Secure Again"?

"Elections play a vital role in a free and fair society and are a cornerstone of American democracy. We recognize the fundamental link between the trust in election infrastructure and the confidence the American public places in basic democratic function. A secure and resilient electoral process is a vital national interest and one of our highest priorities at the Department of Homeland Security." ~ Department of Homeland Security

We know now it will take an army of cyber and privacy experts to keep us safe. Having a secure and resilient electoral process should be one of our nation's highest priorities and collaborating with the best of the best in systems, policy and compliance experts will help us get where we want to be. We need to be aware of evolving threats and agile enough to combat them.

If you are a cybersecurity professional or a company with a solution, a startup that is building an AI solution that will make our election systems more secure, then get in front of our judges. They will pick the best idea and make you a winner of one on the most important things in defending our democracy.
