Hackers will never know that on election day, all Belgian localities will have to connect via the internet to the regional instance of MARTINE to upload their results. A DDoS attack would only ruin the election night. Bugs and misconfiguration do that too.

Voter Verified Paper Audit Trail (VVPAT) saves the day when voting machines results differs from paper count. For Paper to be useful:.1) The human readable vote should be the true record, not a QR code.2) Risk-Limiting Audit (RLA) must be performed. Belgium does none of that. .
Puerto Rico’s primary elections just experienced hundreds of voting irregularities related to electronic voting machines, according to the Associated Press. Luckily, there was a paper trail so the problem was identified and vote tallies corrected. What happens in jurisdictions.

Observing #evoting is challenging because once running you cannot tell what software is running. even if you were presented with some source code. Apparently some do not want more transparency and the likely negative publicity that more eyeballs at the system would bring.
Election observers with more than 1000 signatories petitioned @Riigikogu constitutional committee to "render #evoting meaningfully observable", but in January 2024 after six months of silent processing the proposals were dismissed without an explanation.

A touch screen voting machine, activated by a chip card, that produce a QR as the trace/proof of the vote. and the QR code is not human readable, and the machine can be hacked. A very Belgian scenario, but this is a US trial to get rid of the machine.

All of the IT aspects in election are risk and make control by the citizen difficult or impossible. This is true for voting machines, e-counting, internet voting and digital transmission of election results. Basic tabulation can go wrong. The problem is similar, solutions differ.
Brief thread on @StatSchweiz miscalculating🇨🇭election results. I let this rest for a few days, but I think we see clearer now. I have a gut feeling this has been the biggest blow to #EVoting that has been dealt so far. In a very indirect way, but intimidating nevertheless. 1/🧵.

Flipping bit in computer used to be hard, random and requiring high energy cosmic ray to have a cascade effect (affecting eVoting):. (Radioactive material could also help but seems impractical and dangerous). Those days are gone:.

What do a hacked Belgian election, a falling airplane and a fleet of runaway cars all have in common? The answer just might lie in the stars.

It was not safe, cannot be made safe:."The current cybersecurity environment and state of technology make it infeasible for the Working Group to draft responsible standards to support the use of internet ballot return in U.S. public elections at this time".
opb.org
The advice from cybersecurity experts is unanimous: Internet voting is a bad idea. But it's already happening in every federal election. In 2020, more than 300,000 Americans cast ballots online.

Paper based elections are more secure. "The London-based body added that the largely paper-based process of elections meant it would be 'very hard' for hackers to influence the outcome of a vote.".
"According to UK data protection law, a data breach of such an extraordinary scale and risk should've been notified immediately, yet we've been informed about it seven months after it was identified and two years after it happened.". 🗣️ ORG's @ds_m4riano.

"attackers could exploit the flaws to change votes or affect election outcomes, e.g., by changing ballot QR codes, which are what scanners count".You would think any country using QR code on printed ballots would check a significant number of ballots for this risk. NOT BELGIUM!.
This makes it possible to attack BMDs at scale, over a wide area, without needing physical access to them. Our report explains how attackers could exploit the flaws to change votes or affect election outcomes, e.g., by changing ballot QR codes, which are what scanners count.
