A secure e-voting system based on fingerprint
In past few years, few countries have started using computerized methods and automated technology as a replacement for paper-based voting in their election. However, many countries such as Malaysia are still having their outdated and unsecure election process. So far, there are many methods which...

description |
In past few years, few countries have started using computerized methods and
automated technology as a replacement for paper-based voting in their election.
However, many countries such as Malaysia are still having their outdated and
unsecure election process. So far, there are many methods which have been used to
enhance the election processes, using sealed boxes, punch cards and optical scan
system instead of manual counting are some of the examples. But still there are many
cases of electoral fraud in history, for instance, presidential election of United States
in 2000 and presidential election in Iran, 2009 are some of the most controversial
cases in last few years. The purpose of this study is to investigate existing e-voting
systems, to find out major security and reliability concerns and determine
recommended practices related to security and reliability of e-voting systems. In this
study, a secure e-voting system based on fingerprint proposed to increase the security
and reliability of the current election process as well as reducing the cost, time and
manpower. By enhancing fingerprint template generating and verification models,
we can speed up the election process, especially on identification and authentication
parts. Results compared between two existing e-voting machine; Smartmatic
Machine and eSlating Machine. The results verified that, in all cases, the proposed
system can guarantee the security and reliability and avoid possible electoral frauds. |
