Roundtable video: Disinformation and election security
Summary: Cisco Talos published a roundtable video with four Talos and Cisco researchers discussing disinformation as one of the cornerstones of threat actors' efforts to disrupt the American election process. The discussion covers how legitimate websites can fall victim to disinformation campaigns and what can be done to stop the spread of fake news.
