(EFFECTIVE-EVOTE) IDI-20230522
Context
At Kuorum we collaborate with universities and researchers internationally to lead advances in the field of cryptography. Below, we give you information about one of these projects that has been co-funded by CDTI.
Target
The overall objective of the project is the development of an innovative technological solution for cloud environments specifically adapted to the requirements demanded in elections and assemblies of private organizations in terms of voter privacy, end-to-end verifiability of the votes cast, usability and availability of the final results quickly.
The technological challenge lies in the practical application of the cryptographic properties researched in the new cloud voting framework to make the remote electronic voting system verifiable, private, fast and adaptable according to the specific needs of union elections, as well as in assemblies and elections of other entities, as segments where Kuorum focuses the offer of the new service for online collective decision processes.
