Abstract: ABSTRACT: Multi-Factor Biometric and Cryptographic Secure Electronic Voting Authentication System This invention describes a multi-factor biometric electronic voting authentication system designed to ensure secure, transparent, and tamper-resistant electoral processes. The system integrates fingerprint-based identity verification with liveness detection to authenticate genuine voters and prevent spoofing. A behavioral gesture-based verification mechanism ensures realtime human presence and active participation, thereby mitigating automated or proxy voting attempts. The system further incorporates an anti-coercion signaling feature that allows voters to discreetly indicate duress without external detection. Upon successful authentication, votes are securely processed and converted into cryptographic hash-linked records, forming a tamperevident sequential chain structure. Encrypted digital storage and controlled administrative access further enhance data protection and system integrity. By combining multi-layer authentication with cryptographic vote sealing, the invention provides a robust and reliable framework for preventing impersonation, coercion, and unauthorized vote manipulation in electronic voting environments.
