ONLINE VOTING SYSTEM

Abstract

Abstract : The development of an online voting system aims to modernize the electoral process by leveraging digital technologies to ensure a secure, efficient, and accessible voting experience. This system addresses critical issues such as voter authentication, ballot secrecy, vote integrity, and result accuracy. It employs robust cryptographic techniques to protect the confidentiality and integrity of votes, ensuring that each vote is uniquely linked to an authenticated voter while maintaining anonymity. The platform supports multi-factor authentication to verify voter identity and employs end-to-end encryption to safeguard vote transmission. Additionally, the system includes mechanisms for real-time monitoring and auditing to prevent and detect any fraudulent activities. By enhancing accessibility, the online voting system makes it easier for individuals, including those with disabilities or residing in remote locations, to participate in the electoral process. This system promises to improve voter turnout, reduce costs associated with traditional voting methods, and provide timely and accurate election results. However, it also necessitates addressing potential challenges such as cyber security threats, digital literacy, and ensuring equitable access to technology. Overall, the online voting system represents a significant advancement in the evolution of democratic processes. IndexTerms – Online voting, E-voting, Security.
