| description | Electronic voting systems such as Direct Recording Electronic systems have become
more prominent in election processes because of their potential in consistency of
implementing security policies. Despite of this potential, most of the systems still
exclusively rely on the integrity of election officers and poll workers to ensure that the
election maintains the proper security and privacy. Various cryptography voting
schemes have been proposed to tackle the problem of how to trust the voting machine
with correct recording of votes. However, still the probability of cheating is relatively
high.
This thesis proposes an electronic voting system that provides a trustable voter
verification system by scrambling ballots as the cryptography method. The system
selects and unselects candidates, and Rubik’s cube is used for encrypting ballots and generating receipts. The receipts can be used by voters to verify their votes in the final
tally of votes.
Cheating probabilities were analyzed to evaluate the strength of the proposed system.
The results of the probability analysis show that cheating probabilities in the proposed
system are very low. |
