Description

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.
