Abstract

Protocols for electronic voting are becoming popular with the widespread use of Internet. In this paper we propose an e-voting protocol. Our architecture is unique in that it attempts to integrate two topics of much relevance in e-voting: secure coding and information security. The former sometimes referred to as defensive programming provides defense against certain exploits while the latter deals with confidentiality, integrity and availability of information.
