E-voting has its own risks: Expert

Cyber-security expert, Given Shingange, says e-voting has its own challenges.

“E-voting has a perceived advantage as I think of more people will vote because they will vote from their houses. There is also another positive part because it will be easier. But if you look at the security issues, you have got some countries who have been doing it. However, with technological development, you have got the issue of security,” he said.The police say none of them succeeded in casting more than one ballot.

True. IEC must just fix the ID scanner to make sure people only vote once. Electronic stuff can be easily faked and hacked

Like eToll?🤔🤔

all for it
