Abstract

Abstract: Electronic decision making process has been adjudged as an alternative measure to address the flaws of ballot voting system for the delivery of free, fair, confident, credible and transparent elections. Electronic ballot spoofing, remote voter’s masquerading, voter’s coercibility and ballot integrity breach are some of the security issues in electronic voting system. In this paper, we proffer solution to the problem of authentication and verification of voters as well as the integrity and confidentiality of the casted electronicballot. The developed e-voting system adopts two levels of security: authentication of voters for whom they are using Radio Frequency Identification Technique and protection of casted votes in transit using enhanced LeastSignificant Audio Steganographic for credible electronic decision making. The results obtained from the testing and qualitative evaluation using both human psychoacoustic and histogram analysis of the audio cover and stego audio of the system demonstrated an effective level of security from pre-election phase, election phase and post-election phase of the electioneering processes. When electoral processes are exercised with guaranteed security techniques, the electorates can have confidence in the conducted election for improved e-decision system of governance in developing countries with significant digital divide.
