A voting scheme with post-quantum security based on physical laws
This addresses the problem of secure electronic voting for users in a post-quantum era, offering a novel approach that is not incremental but based on physical limitations rather than computational assumptions.
The paper tackles the threat of quantum computing to traditional cryptography by proposing a new post-quantum voting scheme based on physical laws, which ensures security against quantum attacks and rigorously demonstrates properties like completeness, privacy, and verifiability.
Traditional cryptography is under huge threat along of the evolution of quantum information and computing. In this paper, we propose a new post-quantum voting scheme based on physical laws by using encrypted no-key protocol to transmit message in the channel, which ensures the post-quantum security. Unlike lattice-based and multivariate-based electronic voting schemes, whose security is based on the computational problems assumption that has not been solved by effective quantum algorithms until now, the security of the voting scheme based on the physical laws is depended on inherent limitations of quantum computers and not influenced by the evolution of new quantum algorithms. In detail, we also rigorously demonstrate that the scheme achieves the post-quantum security and all properties necessary for voting scheme such as the completeness, robustness, privacy, eligibility, unreusability, fairness, and verifiability.
