Public Intrusion Test (PIT) Swiss Post will be carrying out resilience testing, also known as a public intrusion test (PIT), on its e-voting system between 25 February and 24 March 2019. During the test, hackers and other independent IT specialists can challenge the Swiss Post e-voting system with deliberate attacks. [...] Why is Swiss Post performing an intrusion test on its e-voting system? Swiss Post believes that only a transparent e-voting solution can be successful in the long term. By opening it up to an intrusion test, it is exposing its system to the intelligence and skill of sophisticated hackers to identify whether, when and how its e-voting system can be compromised. It will incorporate the results of the intrusion test into the development of its e-voting system. Swiss Post will identify and rectify any vulnerabilities that may be found. Last but not least, the intrusion test should also establish hard facts and thereby contribute to a fact-based discussion of e-voting. Intrusion tests are an established procedure within the IT field and are a standard part of developing many IT systems. https://www.evoting-blog.ch/en/pages/2019/public-hacker-test-on-swiss-post-s...
