Title of the presentation
The French Experience with E-Voting
Abstract
This talk will focus on the impact of the e-voting recommendation which defines a framework for a trusted e-voting system and which was published by the CNIL in 2003.
First, we will recall the national legal framework and describe the broad outline of the recommendation. In order to explain why this recommendation contributed to improve the transparency and security of e-voting systems, we will then describe its impact on e-voting companies and data controllers, both from an economic and technical perspective.
We will conclude by giving hints about a future revision of the recommendation and by foreseeing the role that privacy certification could play in this environment.
