“…In this case, ballot-stuffing attackers [36] enlarge their reputation by their self-announcement, including positive feedback from each other and concealing the incompatible intentions to the higher authorities. In consequence, all trust models are devoted to recommendation trusts directly and indirectly, which can be easily affected by ballot-stuffing attacks [37]. The e-voting model can be faced with ballot-stuffing attacks.…”

Blockchain-enabled cybersecurity system to ensure and strengthen decentralized digital transaction is gradually gaining popularity in the digital era for various areas like finance, transportation, healthcare, education, and supply chain management. Blockchain interactions in the heterogeneous network have fascinated more attention due to the authentication of their digital application exchanges. However, the exponential development of storage space capabilities across the blockchain-based heterogeneous network has become an important issue in preventing blockchain distribution and the extension of blockchain nodes. There is the biggest challenge of data integrity and scalability, including significant computing complexity and inapplicable latency on regional network diversity, operating system diversity, bandwidth diversity, node diversity, etc., for decision-making of data transactions across blockchain-based heterogeneous networks. Data security and privacy have also become the main concerns across the heterogeneous network to build smart IoT ecosystems. To address these issues, today's researchers have explored the potential solutions of the capability of heterogeneous network devices to perform data transactions where the system stimulates their integration reliably and securely with blockchain. The key goal of this paper is to conduct a state-of-the-art and comprehensive survey on cybersecurity enhancement using blockchain in the heterogeneous network. This paper proposes a full-fledged taxonomy to identify the main obstacles, research gaps, future research directions, effective solutions, and most relevant blockchain-enabled cybersecurity systems. In addition, Blockchain based heterogeneous network framework with cybersecurity is proposed in this paper to meet the goal of maintaining optimal performance data transactions among organizations. Overall, this paper provides an in-depth description based on the critical analysis to overcome the existing work gaps for future research where it presents a potential cybersecurity design with key requirements of blockchain across a heterogeneous network.

“…We note that the protocols in B-ID-MIX can handle more complex ballots than existing ones in B-ID-HOM. 4 We study sub-class B-ID-HOM in Sec. 6, where we demonstrate that the best protocols in this sub-class are [21] and its extension [29], as well as the homomorphic version of [22].…”

“…IV-C of [3], Baloglu et al observe that the reason for these issues is the fact that Belenios uses pseudonyms to achieve everlasting privacy. In a different work, Baloglu et al [4] show how to mitigate most, but not all of Belenios' verifiability issues they presented in [3].…”

Vote privacy is a fundamental right, which needs to be protected not only during an election, or for a limited time afterwards, but for the foreseeable future. Numerous electronic voting (e-voting) protocols have been proposed to address this challenge, striving for everlasting privacy. This property guarantees that even computationally unbounded adversaries cannot break privacy of past elections. The broad interest in secure e-voting with everlasting privacy has spawned a large variety of protocols over the last three decades. These protocols differ in many aspects, in particular the precise security properties they aim for, the threat scenarios they consider, and the privacy-preserving techniques they employ. Unfortunately, these differences are often opaque, making analysis and comparison cumbersome. In order to overcome this non-transparent state of affairs, we systematically analyze all e-voting protocols designed to provide everlasting privacy. First, we illustrate the relations and dependencies between all these different protocols. Next, we analyze in depth which protocols do provide secure and efficient approaches to e-voting with everlasting privacy under realistic assumptions, and which ones do not. Eventually, based on our extensive and detailed treatment, we identify which research problems in this field have already been solved, and which ones are still open. Altogether, our work offers a well - founded reference point for conducting research on secure e - voting with everlasting privacy as well as for future - proofing privacy in real - world electronic elections.

“…These three examples, TLS 1.3, 5G-AKA, and EMV were each developed by some subset of this paper's authors together with other colleagues. 1 We emphasize though that there are many other impactful examples, not covered here, by other users who have independently applied TAMARIN to ambitious, large-scale protocols, including payment systems [5], e-voting systems [6], and distance bounding protocols [7]. 1.…”
