Distributed Internet Voting with Authentication

This project involves developing a cybersecure Internet voting framework that can be used to allow active duty military personnel to vote during a general election. This framework was developed with security at the forefront in an attempt to solve the most common issues that Internet voting solutions face. During the course of this project the registration phase of the framework was addressed and a solution was developed. The Distributed Internet Voting with Authentication system (DIVA) is designed to use a web based application to collect data from a registering user and store it in a secure database. This data is then written onto to JavaCard for later use in authentication. This system allows for a user to become registered in the DIVA database for Internet voting.
