Internet voting is fundamentally insecure – report

In more news from the United States, there are multiple articles today covering a report for the Pentagon that gave a damning analysis of an internet-based voting system to be used by ex-pat and military voters in at least seven states for the primary and Presidential elections this year. Prepared by four leading experts, the report claims that the architecture of the internet makes internet voting fundamentally insecure, and there is no way to ensure that untraceable attacks do not take place. Despite the damning nature of the report, the Pentagon plans to continue the roll-out of the system.
