Audit Description

Municipal elections serve as a cornerstone for local democracy, and the outcomes of these elections significantly influence various aspects of the daily lives of residents in the State of Israel. The successful management of this national project necessitates the establishment of robust and secure computer systems that thoroughly support each stage of the electoral process. The Office of the State Comptroller conducted a real-time audit of the information systems and cybersecurity measures during the elections held in February 2024, accompanying the entire process from the preparation phase to election day and the subsequent days. The audit identified deficiencies in both the IT preparations for the elections and the actual conduct during the electoral process.
