Comment : | SECURITY OF VOTING SYSTEMS When I set aside all issues of tone and politics, one fact stands out that appalls me: Of the pool of people who have written papers on voting equipment that I have read, who have publicly spoken on the topic or briefed me privately, if I restrict my focus to people who strike me as credible judges of information security, every one of those has expressed deep reservations about the level of security that is NOT required in these Guidelines (as expressed here or in the comparable P1583 sections) compared to the level of security that reasonably could be required.
