Performance Improvement using Pseudorandom One Time Password (OTP) in Online Voting System

Abstract

In today's world of growing advanced mobile technologies, the traditional voting method can be changed to a newer and effective approach termed as mobile voting. The Mobile voting system provides a convenient, easy and efficient way to vote eliminating the shortcomings oftraditional approach. In this paper we propose to build an E-Voting system which is basically an online voting system through which people can cast their vote through their smart phones or by using an e-voting website. To achieve the required security we are using OTP (one time password)approach , which is most commonly on the web to tell the difference between a human using a web service and an automated bot thus making the website more secure against spam- bot attacks. If the results of the matching algorithm are three point match then checks whether this person own voter ID after that it will check with AADHAAR ID, If he has the right to vote then a voting form is presented to him, and the third level of authentication is carried out by using One Time Password (OTP) principle. The OTP principle emphasizes that each time the user tries to log on, the algorithm produces pseudorandom output thus improving the security. The result shows that the proposed algorithm capable of finding over 90% of the faces in database and allows their voter to vote in approximately 58 seconds. choices regarding exact issues, pieces of rule, citizen initiatives, constitutional amendments, recalls and/or to select their government and political representatives. (19) Nowadays Technology is being used more and more as a tool to contribution voters to cast their votes. To allow the use of this right, almost all voting systems around the world contain the following steps: Voter identification and authentication, voting and recording of votes cast, vote counting, publication of election results. (16) Voter identification is required during of the electoral process: 1. first for voter registration in direction to establish the right to vote and then, at voting time, to allow a citizen to use their right to vote by authenticating if the person satisfies all the requirement sneeded to vote (authentication). (14) 2. Security is important of the e-voting process. Therefore the necessity of designing a secure e- voting system is very important. Generally, mechanisms that ensure the security and privacy of an election can be time consuming, expensive for election administrators, and inconvenient for voters.(12)
