Security & Compliance Questions
Answer: Yes, when properly implemented.
Security Features:
- Military-grade AES-256-GCM encryption
- RSA-4096 digital signatures
- Zero-knowledge proofs
- Same cryptography protecting banking systems
Compliance:
Designed to meet EAC VVSG 2.0 and Common Criteria EAL4+ standards.
Verification:
Every vote generates a cryptographic receipt voters can verify independently on our public blockchain ledger without compromising ballot secrecy.
VoteSecured offers three compliance modes:
- Blockchain-only: Cryptographic audit trail on immutable ledger (accepted in 12 states)
- Hybrid: Digital vote + printer-generated paper ballot for voter review (35 states)
- Paper-primary: Paper ballot scanned and recorded digitally (3 states)
Adaptation:
We adapt to your state's requirements. Our system is more auditable than traditional paper—every vote is timestamped, cryptographically signed, and independently verifiable by voters in real-time.
Multi-layered defense:
- Biometric authentication (fingerprint/face ID) prevents impersonation
- End-to-end encryption prevents vote interception
- Blockchain immutability prevents vote tampering
- Zero-knowledge proofs verify eligibility without exposing identity
- Air-gapped servers for tabulation (no internet connection)
- DHS CISA integration for threat intelligence
- Real-time anomaly detection using AI
Additional Security:
We conduct pre-election penetration testing and maintain 24/7 SOC monitoring. Our system is significantly more secure than internet-connected voter registration databases currently used in all 50 states.
No — these are two separate and unrelated products. VoteSecured (developed by Threat Tape LLC, available at vote-secured.net) is a full-stack election security platform combining post-quantum cryptography, blockchain audit trails, and zkSNARK zero-knowledge proofs. VoteSecure is an open-source SDK developed by Free & Fair (freeandfair.us), released in November 2025, with different technical architecture and institutional backing.
We share overlapping goals — cryptographic election integrity — but are distinct organizations with different approaches, code, and implementations. Trademark registration for VOTESECURED is in progress to formalize the distinction.
