CISA, WASHINGTON, November 6, 2024: Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) Director Jen Easterly issued the following statement today on the security of the 2024 elections:
Over the past several weeks, citizens across our country came together to participate in our nation’s sacred democratic process by casting their ballots in the 2024 elections. I want to express my deep gratitude to the state and local election officials and the hundreds of thousands of Americans who served as poll workers yesterday. As the lead federal government agency for election infrastructure security, CISA is proud to call them partners. It is because of their tireless efforts that we can all have confidence in the security and resilience of our elections.
As we have said repeatedly, our election infrastructure has never been more secure, and the election community has never been better prepared to deliver safe, secure, free, and fair elections for the American people. This is what we saw yesterday in the peaceful and secure exercise of democracy. Importantly, we have no evidence of any malicious activity that had a material impact on the security or integrity of our election infrastructure.
Now, election officials will carry out their duty to certify the results and ensure that every eligible vote has been counted as cast. The United States government supported these partners throughout the election, bringing the full range of capabilities to bear in securing systems and pushing back against malicious actors seeking to disrupt our process and influence our election. CISA will continue to support our state and local partners as they move toward their certification deadlines and the official outcome of the 2024 elections.
