Verified Encrypted Paper Audit Trails

Peter Y. A. Ryan · 2006

Voter Verified Paper Audit Trails (VVPAT) have been proposed as a mechanism to try to make touch screen style voting devices more trustworthy, e.g., \cite{mercuri02:e-vote}. We propose an analogous mechanism in cryptographic schemes that use encrypted receipts and argue that such a mechanism can yield considerable benefits, significantly greater in fact than the benefits of VVPAT in conventional voting systems that use plaintext ballots. © 2006 University of Newcastle upon Tyne.
