Paper discusses how the concept of e-voting system is designed to resist some of the main challenges of remote e-voting: secure voters authentication, assurance of privacy of voters, giving the possibility of re-vote, and how an e-voting system can be made comprehensible to build the public trust. 2004-01-01T00:00:00Z http://dl.gi.de/handle/20.500.12116/29131 Security as belief user's perceptions on the security of electronic voting systems Oostveen, Anne-Marie; Besselaar, Peter van den Prosser, Alexander; Krimmer, Robert In this paper a pilot e-voting system is being studied to gain insight into the complexity of IT security issues. The current debate about whether or not electronic voting systems need to have a verifiable paper audit trail provides the context of the paper. According to many researchers a voter-verified paper trail is the only way voters can have confidence that their vote has been recorded correctly. However, technologists start to acknowledge that security mechanisms are fundamental social mechanisms. Trust is of great importance; people no longer have a blind faith in scientific objectivity and the "experts". We examine the opinions of users involved in the testing of the TruE-Vote e-voting system, in particular concerning issues like security, verifiability and trust. The results do indeed suggest that IT security is more than just a technological issue. 2004-01-01T00:00:00Z http://dl.gi.de/handle/20.500.12116/29130 E-voting and biometric systems? Hof, Sonja Prosser, Alexander; Krimmer, Robert As e-Voting gains more importance while practicable solutions are being implemented, more questions arise concerning alternative possibilities for a secure and feasible authentication. The specific peculiarities of secure authentication to a system are various and for a sensitive area like e-Voting also challenging. In this paper we evaluate biometric systems in order to prove their capabilities for e-Voting systems. 2004-01-01T00:00:00Z http://dl.gi.de/handle/20.500.12116/29127 E-voting: International developments and lessons learnt Buchsbaum, Thomas M. Prosser, Alexander; Krimmer, Robert Countries worldwide are carrying growing interest in e-voting. The paper gives a brief overview on recent developments. The countries are joined in their interest by industry and international organisations. All three groups of actors - and individual actors within each group - have different and sometimes diverging reasons for their interest, and thus different goals. The paper focuses on remote / i[nternet]-voting. Member states of the Council of Europe (CoE) are in their final phase of standard-setting on e-voting. The paper provides a preview on a possible CoE recommendation. As the number of e-voting tests is growing, so are the lessons learnt. The paper contains a list of suggestions on ways how best to introduce (remote) e-voting. 2004-01-01T00:00:00Z
