Secure e-voting system using Schorr's zero-knowledge identification protocol
In today's era of technological progress, the electoral system has changed significantly with the introduction of electronic voting (e-voting). The traditional voting system poses many vulnerabilities to manipulation, potential human error, and problems with voter privacy. These limitations can lead to reduced trust and participation in elections. E-voting has emerged to address this issue, aiming to improve the convenience, security, and privacy of voters. E-voting systems are evaluated on accuracy, security, privacy, and transparency; however, ensuring voter privacy while maintaining these principles remains a significant challenge. A potential solution to improving privacy in e-voting is Schorr's zero-knowledge identification protocol. This protocol allows voters to confirm their identity without revealing personal information, maintaining voter privacy throughout the process. By implementing these protocols, the e-voting system can strengthen security and privacy, making elections more transparent and trustworthy. As technology evolves, adopting solutions like Schorr's zero-knowledge identification protocol can help e-voting systems meet the growing demand for safe, fair, and private elections.
