Is AI going to impact the election? Most of us have seen deepfakes and social media bots aiming to influence the election. But a bigger problem is the potential for AI-driven cyberattacks targeting election infrastructure. Cyber pros need to prepare by securing infrastructure, monitoring for anomalies, planning for incidents, collaborating on intelligence, educating the public, and conducting attack simulations.
