What are Software Bills of Materials (SBOMs)? Why are they important in security testing? How are they used in the RABET-V program? John Dziurlaj answers these questions in this post.

The RABET-V program, in collaboration with Enhanced Voting, is pleased to announce that Enhanced Ballot, Enhanced Voting’s electronic ballot delivery solution, has received verified status under the program.

NIST published a guidebook developed by The Turnout to help technology providers implement the Common Data Formats (CDFs). It contains materials on how CDFs are constructed, cross-referencing data inside and outside CDF instances, handling of geopolitical geography, and low-level processing.

A roundup of articles on the RABET-V program, the STEM for Elections Network, our work researching state election official associations, and how process modeling can preserve business knowledge and improve transparency for voters.

John Dziurlaj explains how election officials can maintain resiliency, improve training, and foster trust in their communities with process modeling.

The Election Center commissioned Consilium Colorado, a consultancy focused on public and non-profit management consultation, and The Turnout to conduct an in-depth landscape analysis of state election official associations. This article covers some of our initial findings.

Over the past few years, The Turnout has supported the work of the Engineering for Democracy Institute (EDI) at the University of Rhode Island (URI). Recently, The Turnout moderated three workshops for EDI’s STEM for Elections Network.

In the first post of a new series on spatial data, John Dziurlaj discusses what a spatial audit is and how it can help with election administration.
