Recommendation CM/REC(2017)5 of the Council of Europe and an Analysis of eVoting Protocols

Publikation: Beitrag in Buch/Konferenzband › Beitrag in Konferenzband

Abstract

Electronic voting via the Internet holds a number of promises, particularly in relation to citizens abroad and it may also replace postal voting, which is subject to postal delays and insecure lines of communication. This paper conducts an in-depth analysis of two prominent eVoting protocols, namely the Token protocol and the Envelope protocol explaining their strengths and weaknesses in relation to the Recommendations of the Council of Europe CM/Rec(2017)5. The findings show that Envelope protocols do not fulfil the requirements of the Recommendations, whereas Token protocols can fulfil the requirements, providing certain technical provisions are met.
