#Canadian #election databases use "canary traps"—and they work

In a world awash in high-tech #security tools like #passkeys , quantum-safe algorithms, & public-key #cryptography , it can be refreshing to get back to the simple things... like a good old-fashioned #canary trap.

The canary trap is a simple tool often used to identify #leakers or #doubleagents. To make one, you simply share a document, image, or DB but make tiny changes that are unique to each recipient.
