2016 Presidential Candidate Security Investigation

Fryan writes: InfoSec Institute has assessed the security posture of 16 of the presidential candidates’ websites. This is an indicator of the level of security awareness the candidate and the campaign staff has.

The recent breaches and security lapses of high profile individuals highlight the absolute need for everyone to take security awareness seriously. The hacking of the Director of the CIA’s (John Brennan) personal email account, and the storage of classified emails on a personal email server with Hillary Clinton, show how damaging a lack of basic good security hygiene can be.
