Tech Titans to Address Senate on Election Security

Leading executives from top tech companies such as Google, Adobe, Microsoft, and Meta will testify at a U.S. Senate Intelligence Committee hearing regarding election threats. The hearing aims to address concerns about disinformation campaigns impacting the upcoming November elections, as U.S. officials work to counter foreign interference from nations like Russia, Iran, and China.

Top executives from leading technology companies, including Google, Adobe, Microsoft, and Meta, are set to testify at a U.S. Senate Intelligence Committee hearing next week to discuss election security threats.

Kent Walker of Google, Nick Clegg of Meta, Brad Smith of Microsoft, and an Adobe representative will present their testimonies on September 18, confirmed by a spokesperson from Senator Mark Warner's office.

With a tightly contested election between Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris and Republican former President Donald Trump, U.S. officials are striving to mitigate disinformation from international actors, particularly Russia, Iran, and China.
