The security of today's midterm elections in the U.S. depend in part on the integrity of the electronic voting machines and in how well government agencies can thwart foreign influence campaigns. With officials being concerned about cyber attacks, several government agencies have joined forces to stand ready to combat influence efforts and help state and local officials secure the election process.

United by this goal is the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS), the U.S. Department of Justice (DoJ), the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (DNI), and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). These agencies are working with partners from the federal, state, local and the private sector to ensure a correct count of every vote.
