HACK SIV
Internet voting system designed for government-grade election security, with mathematically provable privacy & vote verifiability.
BACKGROUND
SIV is already being used for impactful elections, having elected legislators and executives at the local, state, and national levels.
There are thousands more election administrators around the world, searching for truly secure, easy-to-use ways to allow citizens to vote and make their voices heard.
But the bar for security is incredibly high.
The threat model is adversarial Nation States, willing to expend military-sized budgets to seek any advantage available.
We invite you to play a role in evaluating and strengthening democracy for millions of people around the world.
