Hence, the bilinear pairings cryptosystem is a practical cryptosystem. 　　 　　In this paper, we analyze several current electronic voting protocols and deniable authentication protocols. Then we design an electronic voting protocol and propose a deniable authentication protocol both based on bilinear pairings. The new electronic voting protocol can satisfy the security requirements of an e-voting system and the proposed deniable authentication protocol can not only attain the desired deniable property but also can prevent all known attacks.
