Description

This week, we present an episode on elections from an Internet and cybersecurity perspective, given that 2024 has been considered the “year of elections.” Over 70 national elections took place, impacting more than half of the world’s population.

Host João Tomé is joined by Alissa Starzak, our Deputy CLO and Global Head of Policy, and Jocelyn Woolbright from Public Policy. Together, they discuss Cloudflare’s various Impact initiatives and how these were utilized during the 2024 elections, particularly in the United States.

We explore how Cloudflare assembled a tiger team for the US elections and addressed the unique needs and challenges at the county, state, and national levels, including those of political campaigns. Additionally, we examine Internet and threat trends related not only to the US but also to Europe and other regions.
