2018 ELECTION SECURITY PLAYBOOK
remotely wipe a device, use password enforcement, enable application whitelisting or blacklisting, use data encryption enforcement, control application distribution and software updates, and more. Chain of Custody Procedure Chain of custody procedures are used by the OCROV as an administrative control as part of its overall strategy to secure our voting system. The chain of custody procedures include the following: • Voting booth controllers are secured within a locked caged area, under video surveillance until they are deployed for the election. • A minimum of two people are present when the voting booth controllers are returned on Election Night.
• Chain of custody documents are used for an additional layer of auditing.
• Voting booth controllers are placed in a numerically sealed transportation box.
• Memory cards are numerically sealed in the voting booth controller.
• All voting equipment is tracked when deployed and returned to the OCROV.
• Election personnel sign chain of custody documents for voting equipment at distribution locations. • Election personnel and polling place workers are required to check the security seals periodically and report any broken seals or suspicious activity to the OCROV. • An OCROV driver is accompanied by a Deputy with the Orange County Sheriff’s Department that returns voting booth controllers to the OCROV.
• An OCROV representative signs for equipment upon its return.
• Voting equipment is inventoried and placed in a secured, video monitored location.
• Voted memory cards are tallied in a room that allows for open observation.
