CYBERVOTE

The objective of the CYBERVOTE project is to develop the first completely secure cyber voting system based on WAP, WML, XML, HTML and Java technologies that will enable European citizens to vote through their mobile phones and PCs connected to Internet. The CYBERVOTE design will be driven by solutions which will allow the user authentication while guaranteeing ballot secrecy, sanctity and integrity but also the freedom of expression of the voter and the user-friendliness and the acceptability of the system. Trial applications will be conducted with disabled, ill and travelling people on different pilot elections. CYBERVOTE's objective is to implement a trustworthy e-voting protocol which can be integrated to existing infrastructures for identification of voters. The e-voting system will be able to handle multiple and concurrent elections and different versions of cryptographic protocols. It will also provide citizen access to supplementary information related to voting with standard browsers.

<p>The CYBERVOTE project aims to contribute to the development of European democracy by enabling all its citizens the use of a modern electronic voting system. The goal is to increase the overall participation of European citizens to all kind of elections and more specifically to increase the participation of the young, physically handicapped people, immigrates and socially excluded people.</p>
