Preventing Phishing Attack on Voting System Using Visual Cryptography

Abstract

Phishing is one of the most common social engineering attacks that users over the internet fall for. An example is voting systems, and because such systems should be accurate and error free, phishing prevention techniques are crucial. Visual Cryptography (VC) is utilized for efficient voting system authentication to cast votes. VC is one of the most secure approaches for privacy protection as it ensures the confidentiality of the voting system. This paper discusses proposed phishing prevention methods and compares different proposed methods.
