As agencies responsible for governing elections, electoral management bodies must develop expertise in cybersecurity practices. With the increasing use of digital technologies in electoral processes, many of them need technical assistance to protect against cybercrimes, as defined in the CoE Convention on Cybercrime (2001), such as illegal access to computer systems, illegal interception or data and system interference, threatening the confidentiality, integrity and availability of election computers and data. In fact, there have been (foreign) cyberattacks on critical electoral infrastructure in a number of countries, such as Ukraine.
