Challenges of Cloud Data Privacy in Surveillance: Legal, Technical, and Ethical Implications
Ahmed S. AlMahmeed
DOI: 10.17148/IJARCCE.2026.15701
Abstract: The migration of surveillance systems to cloud infrastructure has improved scalability and analytics capabilities but introduces distinct privacy challenges: jurisdictional conflicts between GDPR and the CLOUD Act, expanded attack surfaces from third-party integrations, mandatory retention that conflicts with data minimization, and function creep enabled by centralized data lakes. Using case law from Schrems II, breach reports from ENISA, and technical evaluations of federated learning and differential privacy, this paper systematizes core risks of cloud surveillance. We contribute: 1) a taxonomy of seven cloud-surveillance privacy challenges, 2) an end-to-end architecture with privacy controls, 3) a STRIDE+LINDDUN threat model, and 4) a four-layer mitigation framework. Evaluation shows federated learning reduces raw video egress by 98% with 4% F1 loss, while geo-fenced encryption satisfies Schrems II supplementary measures. We argue that technical safeguards alone are insufficient without multilateral legal harmonization and independent oversight.

Shashank G, Gurudeep V, Vijay M
DOI: 10.17148/IJARCCE.2026.15702
Abstract: The growth of digital learning platforms has changed the way students look for knowledge and academic support. As these environments continue to expand, there is a rising demand for tools that can respond instantly and adapt to the needs of individual learners. Educational chatbots have emerged as one answer to this demand, offering students immediate answers, access to study resources, and academic guidance outside the traditional classroom. This paper presents EduAssist, a conceptual educational chatbot built around Natural Language Processing (NLP), designed to support personalized learning and sustained student engagement. By analyzing user queries through NLP techniques, the system is intended to generate relevant answers and recommend educational resources tailored to each learner's needs. Through the combination of conversational interaction, structured knowledge management, and voice-based accessibility, EduAssist aims to make independent study more approachable and consistent. Because this work presents a system design rather than a deployed application, the paper focuses on architecture, proposed functionality, and anticipated behavior, and identifies the steps — including prototype development and empirical evaluation — required to validate the framework in practice.

Agentic AI for Autonomous Cyber Incident Response: A Multi-Agent Framework for Intelligent Threat Mitigation
Syed Saifuddin Ahmed Muzaffar
DOI: 10.17148/IJARCCE.2026.15705
Abstract: As a result of hidden-run Agentic approach, AI becomes a huge form of protecting computers against any hacker attacks. It enables systems to work autonomously based on goal-oriented reasoning, planning, and implementation. In this paper, we will try to analyses how it is possible to implement agentic AI technology (in a broader sense) to achieve autonomous cyber-attack response. We would like to know how it could help make wise affirmative action an automated one and thus transform its people-dependent nature into a defensible real-time reaction to any attack. According to the architecture proposed, there are many cooperative agents playing separate roles (detect, analyses, decide, respond, and learn). Such a system learns continually by combining reinforcement learning and threat intelligence, coupled with feedback mechanisms, which results in making a computer immune to any advanced cyber- attack and zero-day attack. Many benchmark datasets have been applied, and as a result, this system was proved to significantly outperform other systems in terms of detection accuracy, response time, and automation efficiency, despite being compared with classic/semi-automatic one.
Abstract: Communication plays a major role in educational institutions, offices, and public places. Traditionally, notice boards have been used to display important announcements, schedules, circulars, and emergency alerts. These notice boards require manual posting, which involves printing the notice, physically placing it on the board, and frequently updating or removing it. This traditional process is slow, time-consuming, labour-dependent, and often leads to communication delays. With the increasing use of smartphones, cloud computing, and IoT (Internet of Things), there is a growing need for a modern, efficient, and instant notice delivery system. IoT technology allows devices to communicate and share information over the internet in real time. By applying IoT to notice boards, messages can be updated wirelessly from anywhere, eliminating the need for manual updates.
The ESP32 microcontroller, with built-in Wi-Fi, makes it possible to connect a display system to the internet. Combining ESP32 with Firebase Realtime Database enables fast and reliable cloud-based communication. A notice posted from a mobile app can reach the display board instantly through the cloud. This forms the foundation of an IoT-powered digital notice board system. In this project, a mobile application is used to create and send messages. These messages are uploaded to Firebase, and the ESP32 retrieves them and displays them on a VGA monitor. This provides a smart, eco- friendly, and automated replacement for traditional notice boards. The system is especially useful for institutions that require quick updates, such as schools, colleges, offices, malls, and transport stations Over the past several decades, notice boards have remained a common means of communication in public and private institutions.

DOI: 10.17148/IJARCCE.2026.15711
Abstract: Mobile processors are advancing at a blistering pace, but managing the heat they generate remains a massive challenge. This paper investigates how different tiers of smartphone processors handle heat buildup and performance drops during a variety of sustained workloads, including 3D rendering and high-resolution media consumption. By using diagnostic tools (ADB) to bypass standard benchmark software, raw hardware metrics were extracted directly from the devices. The data reveals that highly clocked processing units generate extreme heat during heavy compute tasks, suffering massive performance drops (up to 35%) to stop themselves from overheating. In contrast, processors designed for balanced power draw naturally operate cooler by prioritizing efficiency cores. Furthermore, the data demonstrates that offloading sustained media tasks to dedicated Video Processing Units (VPUs) significantly reduces thermal saturation across all architectures, providing a more stable, long-term user experience.

DOI: 10.17148/IJARCCE.2026.15713
Abstract: Extractive text summarisation has become an essential Natural Language Processing (NLP) task for managing the rapid growth of digital textual information. However, conventional graph-based summarisation methods often suffer from high computational complexity and memory consumption due to exhaustive pairwise sentence similarity computations, limiting their applicability to large-scale datasets and low-resource languages such as Hausa. This study proposes a scalable extractive text summarisation model for Hausa language documents using K-Nearest Neighbours (KNN) and Sparse Matrix Representation to improve computational efficiency while preserving summary quality. The proposed approach preprocesses Hausa news articles through tokenisation, stop-word removal, and TF-IDF vectorisation, after which KNN identifies the nearest neighbouring sentences to construct a sparse similarity matrix. This reduces computational complexity from O(N²) to O(N log N) by eliminating unnecessary similarity computations while preserving the most informative sentence relationships for graph-based ranking. The proposed model was evaluated on a corpus of Hausa news articles and compared with a Graph Convolutional Network–Recurrent Neural Network (GCN– RNN) model using ROUGE-1, ROUGE-2, ROUGE-L, execution time, memory consumption, compression ratio, and computational complexity. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed model completed summarisation in 32 s while consuming only 4.79 MB of memory, compared with 104 s and 112.96 MB for the GCN–RNN model, representing reductions of 69.23% in execution time and 95.76% in memory usage. It also achieved ROUGE-1, ROUGE-2, and ROUGE-L F1-scores of 85.36%, 75.64%, and 76.77%, respectively, outperforming the baseline while maintaining superior computational efficiency. These findings demonstrate that the proposed KNN with Sparse Matrix Representation provides an efficient, scalable, and practical framework for extractive text summarisation of Hausa language documents and offers a promising solution for other low-resource languages.

Abstract: Road traffic accidents remain one of the leading causes of preventable fatalities worldwide, primarily due to delayed hazard perception and delayed emergency response. This paper presents a Multi-Featured Smart Vehicle with Safety Monitoring using IoT, a low-cost, retrofit-capable embedded system that combines real-time obstacle avoidance, blind-spot monitoring, automatic accident detection and GPS-based emergency alerting on a single dual-core ESP32 platform. The system fuses data from an HC-SR04 ultrasonic sensor, two infrared proximity sensors, an MPU6050 accelerometer-gyroscope and a Neo-6M GPS module, and uses an RTOS-based dual-core scheduling strategy to guarantee that collision-avoidance logic is never delayed by network activity. On detecting a severe impact, the system autonomously halts the drive motors and broadcasts an SOS message containing a live Google-Maps location link over Bluetooth to a connected terminal, eliminating dependence on human intervention during the critical “golden hour” after a crash. Experimental evaluation of the prototype across repeated test trials shows a crash-detection accuracy of 96%, a forward-obstacle avoidance efficiency of 95%, a blind-spot alert reliability of 98%, and an average end-to-end SOS response time of 1.45 seconds. These results demonstrate that high-end vehicular safety features, traditionally restricted to expensive luxury vehicles, can be replicated at a fraction of the cost using accessible embedded hardware, making the proposed architecture suitable for retrofitting into economy and public-transport vehicles.

Abstract: Fire accidents pose a serious threat to human life, property, and the environment, especially in industrial areas, forests, warehouses, and residential buildings. Traditional firefighting methods often expose firefighters to hazardous conditions and may result in delayed emergency response. This paper presents the design and development of a DIY Fire Extinguisher Drone, a low-cost unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) designed to detect and suppress small-scale fires efficiently. The proposed system integrates an ESP32 microcontroller, flame sensor, smoke sensor, GPS module, camera module, relay-controlled water pump, and brushless DC motors to create an intelligent firefighting platform. Upon detecting fire, the drone identifies the affected area, activates the onboard extinguishing mechanism, and simultaneously transmits real-time video and GPS coordinates to the operator for effective monitoring and emergency response. The lightweight design, affordable hardware, and modular architecture make the system suitable for educational institutions, industries, and disaster management applications. Experimental evaluation demonstrates reliable fire detection, rapid response time, and effective suppression of controlled fire scenarios while reducing human involvement in dangerous environments. The proposed DIY Fire Extinguisher Drone provides an economical, efficient, and scalable solution for enhancing firefighting operations and improving public safety through modern UAV technology.
Smart Saline Monitoring and Alert System Using IoT

DOI: 10.17148/IJARCCE.2026.15716
Abstract: Giving a patient IV saline is about as routine as hospital care gets, yet how that drip is tracked has barely changed in decades — a nurse still walks over and eyeballs the bottle. Drip rates are set by hand, and hand-set rates drift, so pinning down exactly when a bag will run dry is more guesswork than science. If nobody catches an empty bottle in time, the consequences are not trivial: blood can back up into the line, the line can become contaminated, or, worse, air can enter the vein and trigger an embolism.The moment fluid drops into the Low band, the system does more than flash a light. A buzzer sounds close to the patient, and a SIM900 GSM/GPRS module sends an SMS directly to the caretaker's phone over the cellular network — a channel that keeps working even when hospital Wi-Fi is congested or down entirely, so the message gets through regardless. To stop staff being bombarded with repeat alerts for a single event, the firmware relies on state flags that cap each threshold breach at exactly one notification.Cost was a deliberate design constraint: every part is a common, off-the-shelf component, and the total build comes in well under the price of a commercial infusion-monitoring pump, which makes the system a realistic option for hospitals and clinics working with tight budgets.

DOI: 10.17148/IJARCCE.2026.15718
Abstract: The increasing complexity of modern wireless communication systems has significantly transformed the antenna design process. Conventional antenna development primarily relies on full-wave electromagnetic (EM) simulations combined with iterative optimization techniques. Although these methods provide accurate results, they often require extensive computational time, particularly when dealing with multi-parameter, multi-objective, or broadband antenna structures. In recent years, artificial intelligence (AI) has emerged as a promising alternative for accelerating antenna analysis and design. Machine learning (ML), deep learning (DL), surrogate modeling, inverse design, and generative approaches have demonstrated the ability to predict antenna performance with considerably fewer electromagnetic simulations while maintaining satisfactory accuracy. This review presents a comprehensive analysis of recent research on AI-assisted antenna design, covering studies involving microstrip patch antennas, ultra-wideband (UWB) antennas, antenna arrays, metasurfaces, horn antennas, and reconfigurable antenna structures. The reviewed literature is organized according to major AI methodologies, including classical machine learning algorithms, deep learning architectures, surrogate modeling techniques, inverse design frameworks, and hybrid optimization approaches. Their advantages, limitations, and practical applications are critically discussed and compared. Furthermore, this review identifies several challenges that continue to limit the widespread adoption of AI-driven antenna design, including the absence of standardized benchmark datasets, inconsistent reporting of computational efficiency, limited experimental validation, and the difficulty of developing generalized models that can perform well across multiple antenna topologies. Finally, potential research directions such as physics-informed learning, transfer learning, generative artificial intelligence, digital twins, and automated antenna design frameworks are highlighted. The objective of this review is to provide researchers and engineers with a structured overview of current developments while identifying opportunities for future advancements in intelligent antenna design.

Abstract: Poor road conditions, especially potholes and damaged road surfaces, are a major cause of traffic accidents, vehicle damage, increased travel time, and higher maintenance costs. In many regions, road inspections are still carried out manually, making the process time-consuming, expensive, and often incapable of identifying road damage in real time. This paper presents an IoT-Based Smart Pothole Detection and Alert System designed to automate pothole detection and provide instant location-based reporting using low-cost embedded hardware. The proposed system is built around an ESP32 microcontroller, which continuously monitors road surface conditions using a VL53L3CX Time-of-Flight (ToF) sensor. Whenever a significant increase in the measured distance indicates the presence of a pothole, the ESP32 processes the sensor data, activates a buzzer to indicate successful detection, and acquires the geographical coordinates of the damaged road using a Neo-6M GPS module. The collected information, including the pothole status, latitude, longitude, and detection time, is transmitted through the ESP32's built-in Wi-Fi module to the ThingSpeak cloud platform, where it can be monitored remotely through an online dashboard. This enables road maintenance authorities to identify damaged road locations quickly, monitor road conditions in real time, and prioritize repair work more efficiently. A working prototype of the proposed system was developed and experimentally tested under different road conditions. The results demonstrated reliable pothole detection, accurate GPS location tracking, and near real-time cloud data transmission with low processing latency. Overall, the proposed system demonstrates that a simple, portable, and cost-effective combination of embedded sensors, GPS technology, wireless communication, and cloud computing can significantly improve road monitoring, enhance transportation safety, reduce vehicle damage, and contribute to the development of intelligent transportation systems and smart city infrastructure.

The Support Vector Machine model also showed strong and consistent performance across different validation folds. Other models such as Logistic Regression and Random Forest produced competitive results, while Decision Tree and Gradient Boosting showed comparatively lower performance. Overall, the results demonstrate that machine learning techniques can be effective tools for predicting heart disease and can help support early diagnosis. In the future, the performance of these models could be improved by using larger datasets and applying advanced feature selection or optimization techniques. These findings demonstrate that machine learning techniques can be useful for supporting early detection of heart disease and assisting healthcare professionals in decision-making.

DOI: 10.17148/IJARCCE.2026.15723
Abstract: This survey examines quantum-enhanced machine learning techniques for intrusion detection in Internet of Things (IoT) and fog environments, synthesizing recent work on hybrid quantum-classical models, quantum convolutional neural networks (QCNNs), quantum support vector machines (QSVMs), and quantum-assisted clustering. We review five recent primary studies that apply quantum methods to IoT security, summarize their methodological choices (encoding, circuit ansatz, classical-quantum interfaces), and evaluate reported benefits and limitations with respect to accuracy, computational cost, and deployability in resource-constrained settings. The literature indicates potential gains in feature expressivity and false-negative reduction from quantum encodings and variational circuits, but practical barriers remain: limited qubit counts, noisy hardware, encoding overhead, and scarce real-world deployment studies. We identify concrete research gaps and propose directions for lightweight encodings, noise-aware hybrid architectures, federated quantum-assisted Intrusion Detection System (IDS), and standardized benchmarks for reproducible evaluation. The survey aims to guide researchers and practitioners toward scalable, explainable, and deployable quantum-enhanced intrusion detection for IoT.

DOI: 10.17148/IJARCCE.2026.15724
Abstract: The rapid proliferation of Internet of Things devices (IoT) across healthcare, smart homes, transportation, and industrial automation has led to an unprecedented exchange of sensitive data over wireless channels, exposing these networks to cyberattacks, eavesdropping, and unauthorized access. Conventional cryptographic techniques, which rely on computational hardness assumptions, are increasingly vulnerable to the emerging capabilities of quantum computing.

By exploiting the fundamental principles of quantum mechanics, QKD allows two communicating parties to generate a shared secret key while inherently detecting any attempt at interception. The proposed approach aims to enhance data privacy, ensure secure authentication, preserve confidentiality, and safeguard IoT systems against present and future quantum enabled threats. The integration of quantum based security techniques into existing IoT infrastructure is examined, along with its implications for improving the reliability and trustworthiness of wireless IoT communication systems. This work positions Quantum Enhanced Secure Data Communication as a forward looking security solution for next generation IoT networks.

Abstract: Generative AI is shaking up how we think about academic honesty and professional integrity—and not always in a good way. Most old plagiarism checkers aren’t up to the task anymore. They catch copy-paste or obvious paraphrasing, but miss the tricky stuff: clever rewording, translations, or anything cooked up by modern AI tools. Add in all the weird formats—images, messy PDFs—and things get even more complicated. PlagiGuard AI bridges this gap. Instead of relying on a collection of different tools, it uses deep learning and large language models to spot when the meaning’s been stolen, not just the wording. It can even flag when AI wrote the text. You just upload your files—PDFs, Word docs, images—and PlagiGuard pulls out the content, compares it locally and online, and gives you a straight-up risk report. You’ll see which sentences are copied, paraphrased, or machine-generated. The architecture’s built for speed, security, and scale, handling more than twenty languages with no sweat.

Abstract: Novice programmers frequently struggle to translate cryptic compiler diagnostics into actionable understanding, while contemporary generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) assistants optimized for professional productivity tend to resolve reported errors by supplying complete corrected code immediately. This mode of instant resolution, though efficient for experienced developers, is pedagogically counterproductive for learners, as it discourages active engagement with the debugging process. This paper presents CodeMentor AI, a full-stack hybrid web application combining a locally hosted statistical Machine Learning (ML) pipeline with a cloud based Large Language Model (LLM) to deliver both rapid error triage and structured, Socratic-style tutoring. The FastAPI backend integrates a TF-IDF vectorizer with a Logistic Regression classifier for baseline error category prediction, and a cosine-similarity Nearest Neighbors model for code retrieval, with the Groq-hosted openai/gpt oss 120b LLM used for explanation, progressive hinting, and solution verification.The React frontend provides an integrated Monaco-based workspace, a three-tier Learning Mode hint system, and an administrative analytics dashboard with Firebase Authentication and a Supabase (PostgreSQL) backend for persistence. This paper documents the system's architecture, module design, and AI pipeline as implemented, and situates it within recent literature on AI-assisted programming education, retrieval-augmented debugging, and comparative studies of commercial AI coding tools. Formal empirical evaluation of learning outcomes and system accuracy has not yet been conducted and is identified as future work.

DOI: 10.17148/IJARCCE.2026.15727
Abstract: The fifth generation (5G) mobile communication system is looking forward to achieving much better spectral efficiency, higher mobility, and lower end-to-end latency in comparison with the fourth-generation (4G) system. To deal with the influence of the fast time-varying wireless mobile channels, orthogonal time frequency space (OTFS) modulation has been proposed. Orthogonal Time Frequency Space (OTFS) is a 2dimensional (2D) modulation technique designed in the delay-doppler domain which has the strong doppler-resilience over doubly selective channels and SM-OTFS system by the joint design of SM and OTFS modulation and to achieve the improved spectral efficiency and enhanced transmission reliability of the OTFS system when compared to OFDM and OTFS.

Abstract: Smart Intrusion Detection System (IDS) plays a vital role in recognizing network malicious activities in the present network environment. The traditional signature-based methods are usually ineffective towards detecting zero- day and new cyber threats. This paper has presented SMART IDS, as a machine learning based intrusion detection system that attempts to minimize the false alarms and preserve the detection accuracy of the system in both simulated and real network environments. The system is running in simulation mode whereby the CICIDS2017 dataset is used to train and test the model and live capture mode whereby real time packet analysis is performed. An extensive preprocessing pipeline is used. This involves cleaning of data, selection of features, encoding and standardization to provide an assuring model performance. A variety of machine learning models are utilized and considered: Decision Tree, Random Forest, XGBoost, and Logistic Regression. To improve the detection capability, a custom weighted ensemble method is suggested. It has an attack override feature, which puts the emphasis on threat detection and minimizes false negatives. In the experimental area, the accuracy of the Random Forest model is high (99.86). At the same time, the ensemble approach enhances recall and reduces the number of missed attacks as compared to the single models. Real-time packet capture, which is added with the help of PyShark, and deployment with a Flask-based API make the system applicable to dynamic network environments. The SMART IDS is a scaled, adaptable, and efficient framework, which could be applied to handle the cybersecurity reality in contemporary times. It uses machine learning methods with real-time analysis, which greatly improves the performance of intrusion detection and decreases the number of false alarms.
A Hybrid Self-Supervised Denoising and Attention-Guided Segmentation Framework for Robust Medical Image Analysis

Abstract: Medical image analysis plays a fundamental role in modern clinical diagnosis and treatment planning. However, the presence of acquisition noise, low contrast, and indistinct anatomical boundaries often degrades image quality, thereby reducing the reliability of automated image analysis systems. Conventional denoising techniques are effective in suppressing noise but frequently compromise fine structural details that are essential for accurate medical interpretation. Similarly, segmentation models trained on degraded images often struggle to identify complex anatomical structures and pathological regions with high precision. To address these challenges, this paper proposes a hybrid medical image processing framework that integrates a self-supervised image denoising network with an attention-guided U-Net segmentation architecture. The denoising stage is designed to remove noise while preserving structural information and edge continuity, producing high-quality intermediate representations for subsequent analysis. The restored images are then processed by an attention-enhanced segmentation network that selectively focuses on diagnostically significant regions while suppressing irrelevant background features. This integrated strategy improves the interaction between image restoration and segmentation, leading to enhanced robustness under challenging imaging conditions. The effectiveness of the proposed framework is evaluated using widely accepted quantitative metrics, including Peak Signal- to-Noise Ratio (PSNR), Structural Similarity Index Measure (SSIM), Mean Squared Error (MSE), Dice Similarity Coefficient (DSC), and Intersection over Union (IoU). The proposed methodology provides a scalable and reproducible solution for medical image enhancement and segmentation and offers potential applicability across multiple imaging modalities, including Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), Computed Tomography (CT), ultrasound, and chest X-ray imaging.

Abstract: Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD) is a serious vascular condition that is often underdiagnosed due to reliance on manual interpretation of Doppler ultrasound reports. Early detection is critical to prevent complications such as critical limb ischemia and amputation. This study presents an automated PAD detection system that integrates Optical Character Recognition (OCR) with machine learning to analyze Color Doppler reports. The system extracts key clinical parameters, including the Ankle-Brachial Index (ABI), using text parsing techniques from reports in PDF and image formats. A hybrid decision framework combining a Random Forest classifier with rule-based clinical logic is employed to determine PAD presence and severity. A clinical override rule ensures that PAD is flagged when ABI ≤ 0.90, improving diagnostic reliability. To address class imbalance, Synthetic Minority Oversampling Technique (SMOTE) is applied, resulting in improved accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-score. The proposed system reduces manual effort, enhances diagnostic consistency, and enables real-time clinical decision support, making it suitable for practical healthcare applications.

Abstract: Conventional modes of transportation — rail, road, water, and air — tend to be either relatively slow, expensive, or both, and each carries its own footprint of congestion, emissions, and infrastructure cost. Hyperloop is a proposed mode of transport that seeks to overcome this long-standing trade-off by moving people and goods at very high speed inside a sealed, low-pressure tube while the transport pod is magnetically levitated above the guideway. Because the tube is maintained at low pressure, aerodynamic drag is drastically reduced, which in turn lowers the energy required to sustain high velocity. This paper reviews the origins and operating principle of Hyperloop, surveys prior literature on its design, and explains the construction and working of the core subsystems — the tube, capsule, compressor, suspension, and propulsion. It further discusses potential applications, compares Hyperloop against existing modes of transport on the dimensions of speed, cost, and environmental impact, and examines the safety and engineering challenges that must be resolved before commercial deployment. A proposed constructional model addressing the Kantrowitz limit and levitation is presented, along with a summary of advantages, limitations, and directions for future enhancement.

Abstract: Electronic voting (E-voting) systems have become an essential part of modern democratic processes due to their ability to provide secure, efficient, and transparent elections. Traditional paper-based voting systems suffer from issues such as long waiting times, ballot tampering, human errors, and delayed result processing. This research proposes a secure E-voting system using web technologies integrated with biometric verification techniques. The proposed system employs web frameworks, databases, image processing, and facial recognition to authenticate voters and ensure that only authorized users participate in the election process. The system architecture consists of voter registration, authentication, vote casting, result computation, and administrative management modules. Image preprocessing and feature extraction techniques are used to improve voter verification accuracy. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed model achieves high accuracy, enhanced security, and faster vote counting while maintaining voter privacy and election integrity.
