A novel simple secure internet voting protocol

Deepak Kumar, Rishikesh Sahay, Ganesh R. Hegde, Debasish Jena · 2011

A wide number of Internet voting systems have been implemented over the years for voluntary and mandatory purposes with mixed results. In 2002, Wu and Sankaranarayana [] proposed a simple protocol for Internet voting. However, their protocol does not satisfy all properties of an ideal Internet voting protocol. In this paper, we propose an improved Internet voting protocol like anonymity, third party verification and avoidance of double voting. To make it more secure and computationally faster, the proposed protocol has been developed using elliptic curve cryptosystem.
