As Cyber Security expert, great to have you here, what is the main threat or threats facing the us . Threats are coming in for the past couple years, russia, china, iran, north korea is probing our systems and not just our Election Systems but water, electric grid, power supply, all those things and americans have less faith in our electoral system. Lets show right now the initiative over the next 90 days, in my estimation there is a lot of jargon. I want you to tell us exactly what they are doing first and is that what they need to be doing . Dhs has been on top of this, the primary voice in terms of cybersecurity regarding the election process. What they are trying to do is
gain more federal control over what the states are doing in terms of Election Systems. The problem is a booklet to pass where every state and county has its own way whether it is a paper ballot, or connect to the internet, the department of Homeland Security is trying to unite these and implement ways of these election counts.

What the government is worried about is some sort of malware attack. They follow this noise, people start getting nervous about how to use these systems but poll workers keep that under control. You cant vote changing but democracy undermining. The issues have been whether foreign nationals have seen Voters Databases and they have in illinois and arizona dating back to 2016.

No more than what has been released, who else or what else may have been done but going back to what her father says. Every case like this, someone somewhere knows something, it may be something they dont realize helps the investigation. Even if you think it has little value, let them know. Jillian why is this taking so long . Is it that police are trying to get information from social media accounts . How long does that normally
take . The fbi is paramount, they are great in doing this but it does take time, take time to go through her computer, her phone. If they get a lead they have to follow it somewhere and we have her snapchat. A lot of material in a short time. Jillian we do have a digital footprint. How much information can it provide . They are going to find her at some point whether it is positive or negative. We have seen cases where women have gone missing and weeks or months later they show up and that is what they are hoping. They want to locate her no matter what regardless of what the situation is. Jillian her boyfriend, police told us he had an alibi, a couple hundred miles away. Could that information change . What do you think at this time . Based on the small amount of information that has been released already i am surprised if they released that because it could change. What if there was a relationship somebody he knew, who knew she was going to be at his house watching his dogs alone . Jillian we are only saying that because she was out for a jog and snapchat from his house after her job. The fit bit, lets talk about that fit bit. What information can it provide . Every Electronic Device contract you, facebook, twitter, you can be followed so the fbi will be able to eventually pinpoint that and follow her to the point the device was destroyed or discarded. Jillian the latest information we had, on a pig farm in the area nearby, what type of information, are they going off
of the tip or focusing on a special area . They had 30 to 50 fbi agents along with the iowa investigation and so they have to follow up on it and one by one they have to go through them, and lets excluded. Jillian lets talk about the importance of hope in situations like this. We have to have hope, the family has to have hope. You have to prepare for the inevitable but believe something good will come out that. We see so many cases across the country where somebody has gone and we have this crazy investigation, the lady locked in a been in South Carolina and they found they are okay so the possibility, we dont know, we can remain hopeful. Jillian it is important to give that information out. You can call the Sheriffs Office on your screen, 6235679 or you can email and mollys dad and Twin Brothers will join fox and friends live at 7 20 eastern time, stay tuned for that, a situation that has the entire country in this hoping for a good outcome.
