Secure E-Voting System using Blockchain Technology

Abstract

With the advent of IoT, gadgets are now becoming more smart and independent. Truth is that the transformation towards the innovation is in progress yet there are still flaws, mainly in security areas like dependence on the data. Keeping in mind the advancement of IoT in the future, trusting in this vast approaching data source is of great importance. Blockchain is reached up to the position where it became the key innovation that will change the way we share data. Providing trust in conveyed situations, without using any advanced technical team is a development, which could change the way of working of numerous enterprises, the IoT amongst them. We can say with confidence that the concept of Blockchain, which is the technology behind crypto currency [3] Bitcoin [1], introduced a new era in the world of Internet and online services. In this paper, we will talk about develop a secure E-voting system using Blockchain technology where nobody can manipulate the votes and every user can vote only once. This is possible using the advantage of Ethereum smart contracts [2]. Smart contracts make it a powerful tool for the digitization of services in the Ethereum platform. Blockchain with smart contracts develops a safe, cheap, secure and transparent E-voting system. Ethereum and its network are suitable for it. Due to its consistency, large scale use and provision of smart contract logic. E-voting is an application that is possible using Blockchain technology with infused smart contracts. It needs to be digitalized over the Internet & that's what we will be working upon.
