The system under development is mostly focused on vote collection, storage, voter registration, validation, and analysis, etc. To my knowledge, they will continue with mail-in ballots and use this system to process and validate those ballots. I would assume that the mail-in ballots could provide the audit trail of exactly how votes were cast. Beyond that, I can't really discuss any technical details of the system for obvious security reasons. ___________________________________ Andrew Plato, CISSP President / Principal Consultant Anitian Corporation Enterprise Security & Infrastructure Solutions 503-644-5656 Office 503-644-8574 Fax 503-201-0821 Mobile www.anitian.com ___________________________________
