ElectionShield utilizes BrandShield's technology to protect political campaigns and candidates from a growing range of online threats.

BrandShield can provide political candidates with the tools to monitor, detect and takedown these threats, through an AI-Based technology and online threat hunters team.

The launch of ElectionShield comes as political campaigners are increasingly communicating with voters digitally, using advertising services bought from digital and social media companies like Facebook, Google, YouTube, Twitter or Instagram.

This channel expansion exposes these campaigns to a growing number of online threats.

Yoav Keren, CEO, BrandShield, said: "Good campaigns that communicate with voters are central to well-run elections and referendums. In terms of online campaigning, the growing range of threats, such as social impersonation, social phishing, fraudulent fundraising and fake news, weakens people's faith. Having been a political campaigner myself, I know how important it is to ensure this faith is maintained. I am delighted that we have been able to utilize BrandShield's proven technology in the political arena. We look forward to working with campaigns around the World."
