Trojan Horse In Tally Server
Potential Gain:
To successfully alter the tabulated vote from some or all DRE’s in a county. A Trojan Horse attack would not have to explicitly reverse the recorded outcome of an election (e.g., create a republican victor in a predominantly democratic district) to be successful. It may be sufficient to simply alter a few undervotes, or reduce the margin of victory by a few votes. This would also be useful in voting events where a simple majority was not the determinate state, but where a ratio of votes (e.g., electing candidates across multiple possible positions, or as the basis for determining electoral representation) would be of enough interest to motivate the attackers.
