关于选票标记装置的安全问题

On the security of ballot marking devices

Dan S. Wallach

摘要:

选举专家最近的一场辩论考虑了电子选票标记设备(BMD)是否具有足够的安全性来抵御恶意软件的风险。恶意的BMD可能会产生一张与选民实际意图不一致的选票,希望选民不太可能发现这个诡计。本文考虑如何选举管理员可以创建合理的审计程序,以获得信心,他们的车队的BMD是正确的操作,让选民受益于可用性和可访问性功能的BMD,而整体选举仍然受益于相同的安全性和可靠性属性,我们期望从手写的纸质选票。

英文摘要:

A recent debate among election experts has considered whether electronic ballot marking devices (BMDs) have adequate security against the risks of malware. A malicious BMD might produce a printed ballot that disagrees with a voter's actual intent, with the hope that voters would be unlikely to detect this subterfuge. This essay considers how an election administrator can create reasonable auditing procedures to gain confidence that their fleet of BMDs is operating correctly, allowing voters to benefit from the usability and accessibility features of BMDs while the overall election still benefits from the same security and reliability properties we expect from hand-marked paper ballots.
