A Secure and Transparent Voting System Framework Using Finger Vein and Blockchain Technology
The traditional voting system faces widespread mistrust due to its vulnerability to exploitation, lack of transparency, and limited reliability, leading to concerns about the security of democratic rights. Attempts to digitize voting have also faced challenges, with current digital systems often failing to ensure the transparency and security necessary for fair elections. Both traditional and current digital voting systems are susceptible to exploitation, and their inherent weaknesses often lead to mistrust and vulnerability. This proposed solution is secure and transparent voting system framework that leverages finger vein recognition technique integrated with block chain technology to ensure the integrity and confidentiality of votes. Blockchain technology to create a more secure, transparent and reliable voting system. By utilizing blockchain, we aim to address the issues in both physical and digital voting systems, ensuring a fair election process that upholds voters' democratic rights. Blockchain technology offers a platform that maximizes transparency and reliability, fostering a trustworthy relationship between voters and election authorities. each Voter will be registered with Finger Vein as the password and this finger vein will be encrypted and secured by using Pepper-Salt algorithm. Our proposed framework allows voting activities to be conducted entirely online through blockchain, removing the need for physical polling stations. The system employs a scalable blockchain supported by flexible consensus algorithms, with a Chain Security Algorithm to enhance transaction security.
