Elastic partners with DDC to offer free election security to 2020 campaigns

By Devon Kerr

We are excited to announce that Elastic will offer free, monitored Elastic Endpoint Security to the 2020 US presidential and congressional campaigns in partnership with Defending Digital Campaigns.

Defending Digital Campaigns (DDC) is a non-partisan organization that provides low- and no-cost security products and services to federal campaigns to help defend them from cyberattacks and election interference. We are proud to deliver a monitored Elastic Endpoint Security solution, supported by members of the Elastic Security team.

Campaigns have faced two significant barriers as they seek to better secure themselves from cyber threats: The high cost of quality cybersecurity products and the experience to organize an effective security strategy. The DDC helps campaigns quickly overcome these barriers of cost and expertise, allowing campaign staff to focus on what they do best.
