The opening ceremony of the server infrastructure has been held at the Central Election Commission today. US Ambassador to Georgia Kelly Degnan, USAID Mission Director Peter Wiebler and CEC Chair Tamar Zhvania have attended the event.

The Central Election Commission’s server infrastructure has been upgraded with US assistance, enabling the CEC to minimize cybersecurity risks.

Ambassador Degnan highlighted the U.S. Government’s strong partnership with Georgia to protect the upcoming Parliamentary elections from external malign influence. The new server center was equipped in partnership with the International Foundational for Electoral Systems, an implementing partner of USAID’s Elections and Political Processes program.
