About

Cyber Ninjas was a cybersecurity firm hired by the Arizona State Senate to conduct an audit of the 2020 election results in Maricopa County, Arizona. The firm's selection and the audit itself were highly controversial due to the perceived bias and lack of election auditing experience of Cyber Ninjas, as well as the methods employed during the audit. The audit, which ultimately reaffirmed Joe Biden's victory in the county, was widely criticized for its flawed methodology and promotion of unsubstantiated claims of election fraud. Cyber Ninjas is newsworthy now because records related to the audit have been subpoenaed by a federal grand jury and handed over to the FBI. This suggests an ongoing investigation into the events surrounding the audit and potentially related efforts to spread false claims about the 2020 election. The FBI's involvement underscores the seriousness of the matter and the potential legal ramifications for those involved in the audit and its aftermath.
