Secure electronic voting system based on image steganography

As information technology evolves over time, the need for a better, faster, more convenient and secure electronic voting is relevant since the traditional election procedures cannot satisfy all of voter's demands. To increase the number of voters and to offer an enhanced procedure in an election, many researchers have been introducing novel and advanced approaches to secure electronic voting systems. This paper proposes a secure electronic voting system that provides enhanced security by implementing cryptography and steganography in Java. As a preliminary investigation, two steganography techniques are considered and their performances are compared for different image file formats
