Instrument · Module 7

Turn the question bank into a requirements section

Twelve questions, each with requirement language a procurement officer can paste and the evidence that would settle it.

The standard: could a third party determine objectively whether a vendor meets this?

That is the whole test the Module 7 workshop applies, and it is why “the system must be secure” is not a requirement. Select the questions that matter for your procurement; each produces requirement language and names the evidence that would settle it.

The certification landscape, stated accurately

VVSG 2.0 applies to voting systems — equipment that marks, casts, or tabulates. Custody and tracking systems sit outside that boundary, and VVSG 2.0 in fact requires that election systems be air-gapped from the voting system.
