Rick Weible, an election integrity expert, demonstrated how easy it is to circumvent the security of the ES&S Electionware system.
He was able to take a forensic copy of one of the hard drives and boot up the ES&S system on a non conforming laptop, using a special thumb drive.
In addition, the defaulted administrator user name and password is shown in the manual, which is publicly available online.
Rick was then able to log in and change the password to what he wanted.
These systems were literally developed to steal elections worldwide.
