ePrint Report: How to Verifiably Encrypt Many Bits for an Election?

Henri Devillez, Olivier Pereira, Thomas Peters

The verifiable encryption of bits is the main computational step that is needed to prepare ballots in many practical voting protocols. Its computational load can also be a practical bottleneck, preventing the deployment of some protocols or requiring the use of computing clusters.


We investigate the question of producing many verifiably encrypted bits in an efficient and portable way, using as a baseline …
