Study on Security of Online Voting System Using Biometrics and Steganography

چکیده
It is very important to provide security to voting system and mostly which is online one. In this paper we provide security to online voting system with secure user authentication by providing biometric as well as password security to voter accounts. Basic idea behind this is to combine secret key with cover image on the basis of key image. As a result such new image is produced by system called stego image which is quite same as cover image. The key image is a biometric measure, such as a fingerprint image. Extraction of stego image is take place at server side to perform the voter authentication. The system minimizes the risk factor as hacker needs to find not only the template but also secret key and it is not possible. It makes election procedure to be secure against a variety of fraudulent behaviors. To improve speed SHA 256 used for hashing is replaced with MD5.

Data transmission security has become an extremely important field of research. Steganography is an art of hiding information in image, audio and video files in a way that would meet the security requirements in the form of overt or covert. In this study, we propose a new hybrid steganography technique for color images that hide secret messages in the frequency domain of a cover image's blu...
