Design and formal analysis of electronic voting protocol using AVISPA

There are many important security properties that electronic voting protocols and systems need to satisfy. They are eligibility, fairness, security, verifiability, coercion resistance and receipt-freeness. Presently, most electronic voting systems fulfill only some of the required properties. Among these properties, receipt-freeness and verifiability properties contradict each other. So, this paper aims to describe a voting protocol that satisfies both properties simultaneously without effecting security. And an electronic voting system is implemented and formally analyzed by using AVISPA tool.
