Secured Electronic Voting Using Ethereum Blockchain Technology

Abstract

This project aims to solve the problems of the existing centralized server-based voting system by implementing a blockchain-based e-voting system. The decentralized nature of the system ensures that the voting details are maintained by multiple nodes, and even if one node fails or crashes, the data can still be retrieved from other working nodes. The use of cryptography in this system ensures the security of the voting details. Each user's voting data is encrypted and stored in the blockchain, which is secured by a hash code. The hash code acts as a digital signature and helps to ensure the integrity of the data. This makes it very difficult for anyone to alter the data or hack into the system. The immutability of the blockchain is another important feature of this system. Once the data is stored in the blockchain, it cannot be altered or deleted. This ensures that the voting details are tamper-proof and cannot be manipulated by anyone. Overall, the use of decentralization, cryptography, and blockchain technology makes this e-voting system more secure, transparent, and reliable than the traditional centralized server-based voting systems. It eliminates the risk of data loss, hacking, or manipulation, and ensures that each vote is counted accurately
