ICYMI: Spy agency warns campaign teams 'more likely' targets of cyber attacks

for political campaigns.

It’s the first time a guide like this has been created by the federal electronic spy agency, and comes after the Canadian Centre for Cyber Security issued reports in 2017 and 2019 warning that foreign interference in the fall federal campaign is "very likely" and that political campaigns are one of the higher-risk entities vulnerable to these attempts to meddle in the outcome of the election.

The guide includes general basic reminders such as not using free Wi-Fi, using two-factor authentication, and being wary of clicking suspicious links.
