The FCC appears to be firmly out of its depth on this one.

FCC to Call for Government Data Overhaul
March 2, 2010
http://www.internetnews.com/government/article.php/3867876

The plan will also call for reforms to the voting system. The FCC will recommend that all states establish a secure, online mechanism for
voters to register. It will also recommend that the Defense Department
create an online voting system for members of the military stationed
overseas...

I guess no one in the FCC has been reading about recent break-ins at Google, Yahoo, Adobe, Juniper Networks, etc.  No one seems to have told them about the Zeus virus.

Sigh....
