Tel: 886+(0)5-2721001 ext.2017 Abstract In 1997, Cranor and Cytron proposed an electronic voting protocol, Sensus protocol, intended to be applied in a real election. However, in 2005 Fabrizio et.al. pointed out there is a vulnerability exists in their protocol that the validator can impersonate anyone of those abstained voters to cast vote. They proposed a scheme, Seas protocol, to solve this ...

This research investigates the applications of homomorphic encryption systems in electronic voting schemes. We make use of Paillier cryptosystem which exhibits additive homomorphic properties. The other homomorphic cryptosystems RSA and Elgamal are not considered, since they exhibit only multiplicative homomorphic property. Our proposed method increases the level of security when compared to El...

In this paper, we review the electronic voting protocols based on blind signature scheme. These protocols try to fulfil the following electronic voting requirements: eligibility, privacy, receipt-freeness, fairness, accuracy, individual verifiability and universal verifiability. Some of them like eligibility and privacy are easily achieved by the nature of blind signatures; on the other hand, s...

An extension of previous developments of electronic voting and egovernment systems carried out at the School of Computer Science of the UNLP is presented, where a digital fingerprint recognition feature is added to the existing system used for faculty elections at this School. The characteristics and performance of the biometric recognition system are analyzed, as well as the modification of th...

Literature has shown that countries with strong democratic traditions, such as the United States and Canada, are not yet using electronic voting systems intensively, due to the concern for and emphasis on security. It has revealed that there is no such thing as an error-free computer system, let alone an electronic voting system, and that existing technology does not offer the conditions necess...

This paper presents some proposals of protocols for two types of schemes such as verifiable delegation of computation and remote electronic voting, based on polynomial properties. Our protocols for verifiable delegation of computation are aimed to the efficient evaluation of polynomials, working on schemes where the polynomial and/or the input are kept secret to the server. Our proposal for rem...

Approximately 25% (according to http://verifiedvoting.com/) of voting jurisdictions use direct recording electronic systems to record votes. Accurate tabulation of voter intent is critical to safeguard this fundamental act of democracy: voting. Electronic voting systems are known to be vulnerable to attack. Assessing risk to these systems requires a systematic treatment and cataloging of threat...

This paper proposes the use of Business Process Re-engineering (BPR) methods and analysis tools to address the issues arising in the implementation of electronic voting. We consider the electoral process as one which has to be re-designed in order to effectively accommodate e-Voting technology. We identify the key areas of e-Voting where the use of BPR can provide beneficial results.

This article offers an E-voting (Electronic Voting) approach that ensures security, privacy, and transparency. We have decided to use the blockchain system. Blockchain technology lowers cost of centralized Clouds, Datacenters, Networking Equipment, decreases need for middlemen, provides data privacy transparency; all which are critical a fair election.An Architecture Algorithm suggested blockch...

Electronic voting has been attracting the attention of governments and research groups with most work on the subject referring to the user requirements such a system should satisfy. For several cases, though, requirement identification seldom goes further than a simple narrative description of a basic set of nonfunctional characteristics related to security. On the other hand, governmental repo...
