So proud of the outstanding technical work done by my students, showing serious risks of mobile app voting in a system that is actually being used today. And thanks to @andy_sellars @BUTechLaw who gave us confidence to pursue the truth.
Today, myself and co-authors @jimmykoppel and @djweitzner released a paper discussing a slew of vulnerabilities we found in @voatz, a blockchain voting app that's been used in US federal elections. You can read about it in the @nytimes! nytimes.com/2020/02/13/us/po…
