Analyzing The Trade-Off between Anonymity and Verifiability in Electronic Voting Protocols
E-voting, also known as electronic voting, is the practice of casting a ballot or voting using digital technology. Verifiability and anonymity are two important considerations in this situation. The study aims to find the optimal balance between these two crucial concepts, specifically the method of value range area (trade-off) between anonymity and verifiability in e-voting protocols. High levels of e-voting verifiability and anonymity are combined in this value range. The result should be an electronic voting system that protects voters' rights to privacy while promoting confidence in and transparency surrounding election outcomes. This study evaluated several current e-voting protocols to see which ones came closest to the ideal harmony between anonymity and verifiability, utilizing verifiability calculation metrics and anonymity calculation metrics. The balancing area was divided into 4 areas in this investigation. The study's area of balance between verifiability and anonymity can demonstrate that the e-voting protocol is in the ideal category region for such a protocol. After examining numerous e-voting procedures, some issues have finally been identified. The e-voting protocol is ideal because Area 2 is the area where anonymity and verifiability have ideal degree values. E-voting enhancement verifiability protocols are examples of protocols that achieve the perfect balance between anonymity and verifiability.
