E-Smart Voting System with Secure Data Identification Using Cryptography

This paper describes the strategy and functioning of E-smart voting system (ESVS) which is highly secure, biometric authentication system along with OTP based verification system to improve the voting process during election. Further the vote casted by a user is encrypted before storing in database. ESVS utilizes Aadhar number of user for identification and verification of voter. With smart voting system, voter can cast their vote with mobile phone and avoid all kind of queues at polling booth. At first, user must punch in its Aadhar number in the ESVS. The ESVS utilizes the Aadhar number to authenticate the user through OTP which will be received on their registered Aadhar linked mobile number. People without Smart phones can vote through ESVS with an additional step of authentication through highly sophisticated Aadhar based biometric authentication. Smart Voting System successfully allows people to vote using smart phones thus reduces the queues piled up at polling booth. Also, it provides a highly reliable biometric authentication mechanism for people who do not want vote using smart phones thus prevent electoral fraud.
