The FBI has produced a video series as well as other tools and resources called “Protected Voices” found at fbi.gov/protectedvoices

The initiative focuses on information security concerns that should be addressed by political campaigns, companies, and individuals.

Even though the emphasis is on protecting the election process, much of the information applies to all types of information and cyber security threats faced by companies today.

One area overlooked by this FBI initiative, though, is the value of Technical Surveillance Countermeasures (TSCM) sweeps in protecting confidential information. All confidential data has it’s roots in voice conversation. So while it is important to address the cyber concerns, when considering “Protected Voices”, one should also think of the real voices that are present in confidential meetings and discussions. They are a serious target of espionage and eavesdropping and need to be protected as well.

Below is a list of the video topics provided by the FBI.

“America’s elections are the foundation of our democracy—so protecting them is a priority for the FBI and our partners,” stressed FBI Director Christopher Wray in his message introducing the expansion of the FBI’s Protected Voices initiative.

Protected Voices is the FBI’s effort to share resources, information, and tools with political campaigns to help protect the integrity of every election—whether it is for a county council seat or a U.S. Senate seat. Initially launched in 2018, the initiative released new and updated materials this week.
