Full Description

Scope

The standard specifies the process and requirements for the framework of e-Voting systems--The process includes the following: a) Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) to enhance security of registrations and voting with electronic or paper ballots, b) Real-time audits to detect and resolve suspicious activity, c) A database to summarize validated and suspicious results

Purpose

The purpose of the standard is to provide procedures and protocols for DLT-enabled registrations and voting that can help secure the voting process. Secure voting is more than a signature on a voting log or voting envelope. It includes the following: a) A registration process that verifies authorized voters, b) Registered voters who can authenticate that their marked ballot was received and recorded as intended without malicious changes, c) A real-time audit that can detect suspicious activity, d) suspicious voting activity is recorded and investigated, but is not counted with valid votes

Abstract

New IEEE Standard - Active. e-Voting is an application of modern Web 3 and distributed ledger technology (DLT) for more choices and security in registration and voting. Choices range from voting with anonymous paper ballots and postal mail, to online voting where an electronic ballot can be authenticated that it was received and recorded as intended. For security, DLT-enabled systems: validate sources with cryptographic methods, secure communications with digital signatures, and confirm valid transaction with a transparent ledger. Suspicious transactions are recorded as part of a private real-time audit and database, and e-Voting can be tailored for the local needs and methods of a country or administrative sub-division.
