Contest To Hack Brazilian Voting Machines
,----[ Quote ]
| "Brazilian elections went electronic many
| years ago, with very fast results but a few
| complaints from losers, of course. Next month,
| 10 teams that accepted the challenge will have
| access to hardware and software (Google
| translation; original in Portuguese) for the
| amount of time they requested (from one hour
| to four days). Some will try to break the
| vote's secrecy and some will try to throw in
| malicious code to change the entered votes
| without leaving traces."
