(Reuters) - Key members of the U.S. federal judiciary on Tuesday were warned by one of their colleagues to guard against the risks of cyber breaches by foreign actors who could seek to interfere with election-related litigation and spread misinformation.
U.S. Circuit Judge Michael Scudder, who chairs a committee on information technology for the federal courts, warned of the potential election-year hacking risk during a meeting of the U.S. Judicial Conference, the judiciary's top policymaking body, in Washington, D.C.
