Implementasi Blockchain untuk meningkatkan keamanan data dalam sistem Pemilu elektronik
Abstract
Data security in electronic election systems is a crucial issue that requires attention to maintain integrity and public trust. This study explores the application of blockchain technology as a solution to improve data security in electronic election systems. This research adopts an experimental design by integrating blockchain technology into an existing electronic election system and comparing its performance with conventional systems. Research methods include developing a blockchain-based election system prototype, simulating cyber attacks to test system resilience, and performance analysis based on several security parameters, including data integrity, resistance to attacks, and transparency of the election process. The research results show that blockchain implementation is able to improve data integrity by preventing vote manipulation and ensuring transparency through records that cannot be changed and can be audited by all interested parties. Discussion of these findings suggests that blockchain has significant potential to minimize the risk of fraud and cyberattacks in electronic elections. However, the research also identified several technical and operational challenges, including the need for reliable infrastructure and voter education about this new technology. In conclusion, blockchain technology offers an innovative solution to improve data security in electronic election systems, although further implementation and testing in real environments is needed to overcome various existing challenges.
