12th Workshop on Advances in Secure Electronic Voting
A Workshop Associated with Financial Crypto 2027
12 February 2027
Accra Beach Hotel & Spa
Barbados
Overview
Secure voting schemes, particularly cryptographically end-to-end (E2E) verifiable schemes, have been extensively researched over the past twenty years. However, real-world vulnerabilities present in voting systems have heightened the scrutiny of electoral security. Further, voting schemes face challenges in achieving and maintaining properties like (E2E-)verifiability, coercion resistance, high usability, good user experience, and accountability within complex, adversarial environments. Addressing these challenges requires a deep understanding of modern cryptography, information security, and human factors. Moreover, investigating electronic voting is interdisciplinary, demanding knowledge of governmental roles, voter behaviour, physical components, procedural methods, and legal frameworks.
