The Technical Feasibility and Security of E-Voting
An Electronic voting (E-voting) system is a voting system in which the election data is recorded, stored and processed primarily as digital information. E-voting may become the quickest, cheapest, and the most efficient way to administer election and count vote since it only consists of simple process or procedure and require a few worker within the process. The main task of this paper is to introduce the idea of the internet voting systems. It discusses the different ways in which voters can vote, then we introduce the concepts of E-voting system. This paper observes the security threats that may affect E-voting system. This paper discusses technical and secure attributes of a good E-voting system and the reason for each attributes with respect to the voting process. In this paper we analyze some researcher's efforts in E-voting systems in order to minimize the threats that compromise E-voting systems. We end with our opinion about technical feasibility of E-voting in developing countries.
