Election officials in the two unnamed Florida counties where Russian agents hacked voter rolls in 2016 are able to publicly disclose whether they had been attacked. But they are clamming up instead.
The FBI does not prohibit hacking victims from speaking out publicly. When Yahoo was hacked in 2017, for instance, the agency did not notify the public. It left that up to the company, which disclosed the information to its millions of customers.Stacy Arruda, a veteran FBI agent who worked on cybercrime before leaving the bureau in 2018, said that sometimes “victims don’t necessarily want to talk about how they were victimized. it shows a weakness in their network.
Arruda also noted that the counties likely got a far less in-depth briefing than Gov. Ron DeSantis did when he signed his NDA. They would've been told their networks were affected so that they could fix the problem but probably not much more.the justification for keeping the identities of the counties secret.
