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 However, many countries such as Malaysia are still having their outdated and unsecure election process.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...

Electronics Nuclear engineering 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 However, many countries such as Malaysia are still having their outdated and unsecure election process.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. 2013 Thesis http://eprints.utm.my/id/eprint/48147/ http://eprints.utm.my/id/eprint/48147/1/EhsanAhmadizadehMAIS2013.pdf application/pdf en public http://dms.library.utm.my:8080/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:81981?queryType=vitalDismax&query=A+secure+e-voting+system+based+on+fingerprint&public=true masters Universiti Teknologi Malaysia, Faculty of Computing Faculty of Computing
