5. For preparers: 4 basic criteria for an estimate found today
in a white paper prepared by two USC professors in response to South Carolina's proposal to buy iVotronic machines to use statewide in 2006. What they prepared is, essentially, an integrity estimate.

They are four possible risk factors: 1. Deliberate attack, 2. Software bugs and misconfigurations, 3. Human error, and 4. Loss of (voter) faith.

It's a pdf and can be read here:
