Success Cases:
State of Victoria (Australia)
The State of Victoria wanted to implement electronic voting for its 2006 parliamentary elections. The configuration of the election implicated several difficulties: different ballot styles, use of EML, inclusion of audio support, burn boot CDs, key management, multiple language support and use of smart cards to access the voting booth.
Scytl provided a very flexible solution to adapt all the requirements of the Australian government. Larger deployments are forecasted in future elections.
Ministry of Science and Research (Austria)
The Austrian Ministry of Science and Research implemented electronic voting for the 2009 university representatives' elections. The configuration of the election implied a complex election configuration due to: over 400 simultaneous elections, multiple ballot styles, complex and complete end-to-end election administration, EML, etc.
Scytl provided a very flexible solution to adapt all the requirements of the Austrian Ministry.
