Foreign adversaries are actively utilizing “troll factories” to undermine trust in U.S. elections. These malicious campaigns, often orchestrated by state-sponsored actors, spread misinformation and disinformation through various online platforms, aiming to sow discord and influence public opinion. This tactic builds on past interference strategies, like those witnessed in the 2016 U.S. presidential election, and highlights the increasing sophistication of cyber threats targeting democratic processes.
