Abstract

This paper presents and evaluates a new security primitive in the form of non-transferable “visual secrets”. We show how they can be used in the design of voting systems. More specifically, we introduce a receipt-free low-tech visually verifiable boardroom voting system which is built for simplicity and can serve as a teaching tool to introduce people to verifiable voting.
