Security and convenience in e-Voting system has been a major issue that has been looked into recently in time past. Application of smart card technology has brought breakthroughs which affect this aspect. But there can be improvement in the convenience of a general smart card society by solving the problem of carrying a barrage of smart cards in order to identify with various e-Government and e-Payment systems. The general security of an e-voting process was improved by implementing biometric (fingerprint authentication) into the process. Thus, a 3-factor authentication system was developed based on PIN, Smart Card, and Biometrics. Also, attempt was made to develop a multipurpose and multifunctional card for the convenience of all carriers. With these, security and convenience are achieved.
