“WHY would anyone want to conduct a cybersecurity "exercise" on Election Day?”

The Homeland Security community of vendors, contractors and government agencies is coming for a large critical infrastructure conference that includes a "tabletop" cybersecurity threat exercise on Election Day in Atlanta, the capitol of one of the most hotly contested battleground states in America. It is reminiscent of the NORAD federal agency conducting aero defense exercises while we were attacked on 9/11. The exercise sponsored by the Armed Forces Communications & Electronics Association International (AFCEA), begs for specific answers to a variety of serious questions:

-What remote sites will the exercise access?
-What federal, state and local agencies will participate?
-Whose idea was it to have a cybersecurity threat exercise on Election Day in a key battleground state?
-Who is controlling the cybersecurity threat exercise?
-Why would key individuals be here instead of monitoring real threats on the very day when we are at the highest risk of attack?

The timing of this exercise further decreases the credibility of Homeland Security. Their Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) is the same agency that claimed the 2020 election was "the most secure in American history" while their own servers had been compromised without their knowledge by Sun Spot and Super Nova malware attacks on CISA's Solar Winds' Orion monitors. You can't make this stuff up.

Looks like the Election Day “cyber exercise” has been postponed.
