چکیده

Internet polling also known as “e-voting” became popular in past few years, since it reduces the tallying cost and time, increases the number of voter participation, also reduces the human resources and the traditional work that means less fraud and corruption. In this paper, a remote e-Voting system is designed and implemented using homomorphic encryption. The homomorphic property in ElGamal cryptosystem are exploited to achieve two important voting requirements: first, the security of device used for electronic voting by voter. Second, the voter has the ability to choice willfully and uncoercionly. The general voting system requirements such as eligibility, privacy, accuracy, fairness, Receipt-freeness, coercion resistance, mobility, simplicity, individual verifiability, scalability and availability are also achieved in the system.

Secret Sharing Homomorphism and Secure E-voting

Secure E-voting is a challenging protocol.Several approaches based on homomorphic crypto systems, mix-nets blind signatures are proposed in the literature.But most of them need complicated homomorphic encryption which involves complicated encryption decryption process and key management which is not efficient.In this paper we propose a secure and efficient E-voting scheme based on secret sharin...

The Theory and Implementation of an Electronic Voting System

We describe the theory behind a practical voting scheme based on homomorphic encryption. We give an example of an ElGamal-style encryption scheme, which can be used as the underlying cryptosystem. Then, we present efficient honest verifier zero-knowledge proofs that make the messages in the voting scheme shorter and easier to compute and verify, for voters as well as authorities, than in curren...

Secure Electronic Voting Protocols

This chapter gives a summary of cryptographic e-voting protocols. We start with a motivation and an overview of some aspects of traditional elections. We then outline the security requirements of e-voting and present in detail two approaches to cryptographic e-voting, based on homomorphic encryption and mix networks. We finish the chapter with a list of open problems.

A homomorphic encryption - based secure electronic voting scheme

In this paper we propose a homomorphic encryption-based secure electronic voting scheme that is based on [5]. It guarantees eligibility, unreusability, privacy, verifiability and also receipt-freeness and uncoercibility. The scheme can be implemented in a practical environment, since it does not use voting booth or untappable channel, only anonymous channels are applied.
