The New Age electronic voting (NAE-Voting) system is a voting system in which the digital database to be used in election is recorded, stored and processed primarily. There are two types of NAE-voting: On-Line and Offline. On-line, i.e. use modulated network connection, and offline, by using a NAE-voting module independent .Fingerprint Reader (For Thumb Reading), Barcode Readers (for UID Cards) for Voting machines and other existing identification units are discussed and implemented in this project. Authentication of Voters, Security of voting process, Securing voted data and “booth capture” immune polling system are the main challenges of NAE-voting. This is the reason behind to design a secured NAE-voting system is very important. In many time the security of the system relies mainly on the conventional electronic voting machine. But Data security , privacy of the voters and the accuracy of the votes are also main aspects that have to be taken into consideration while building secure NAE-voting system. In this project the authenticating voters and polling data security aspects for Electronic voting systems was discussed. It ensures that vote casting cannot be altered by unauthorized activist. The voter authentication in online NAE-voting process can be done by Fingerprint and Barcode Reorganization with back end modulated network connectivity . In Offline NAE-voting process authentication can be done using Fingerprint and Barcode Reorganization and sensing which enables the electronic ballot reset for allowing voters to cast their votes. Also the voted data and voters details can be sent to the nearby Database unit in a timely manner using GSM System with cryptography/Modulating technique
