Helios Voting System — Launched!

Posted on by

I just gave my talk at Usenix Security on Helios, my new web-based voting system that supports cryptographic auditing. Since it’s web-based, you don’t want to use this for elections where coercion is a serious concern. But if you’re running an online election for your club, software community, etc.., it’s perfect.

Just go to:

http://www.heliosvoting.org

Oh, and you need Firefox 3 for now (and for you Linux geeks, you also need the Java plugin.)

The source code is available at github under the GPL v3.

  4. Hi Eric,

    A few people have been getting that error, so I removed the start and end date fields for now since I’m not (yet) enforcing them anyways. Try it now!
