The presidential campaign of 2016 thankfully – and we can only hope officially – ended this evening. As of when this article was posted, there are no reports of widespread cyberattacks or other digital interference against state voting systems. Of course, since votes are still being tallied, we're not in the clear yet. But current indications are that this was a fairly uneventful election, from a cybersecurity perspective at least.
