Security
Trustbuiltintoeverylayer.
Baalot's security is not a feature — it's the architecture. From voter identity to final result publication, every step is secured, anonymous, and auditable — with public, independent verification on our roadmap.
Planned distributed node architecture — no single point of failure
How We Protect Every Vote
Sixlayersofsecurity.
Blockchain-Anchored Results (Roadmap)
We're building public-blockchain anchoring so that every vote can be recorded as a signed transaction and independently verified once polls close. Today, results are tallied on Baalot's verified servers and ballots are stored unreadable.
Anonymous Ballots
Ballots are stored unreadable, so no one — not even Baalot — can tie a vote back to a voter. Zero-knowledge proofs that verify a vote is valid without revealing who cast it are on our roadmap.
NIN / BVN Identity Verification
Voters are verified against Nigeria's national identity infrastructure before any ballot is opened. Voting is server-verified and de-duplicated — one person, one vote.
End-to-End Encryption
All data in transit is encrypted with TLS 1.3. Voter credentials use AES-256. Even if traffic were intercepted, it would be unreadable.
Full Audit Trail
Every admin action, voter check-in, and ballot submission is time-stamped and logged. Any observer can download a complete PDF audit report at any time. On-chain anchoring of the log is on our roadmap.
Hardened Infrastructure
Votes are server-verified and stored unreadable on hardened, managed cloud infrastructure. A distributed node architecture, so that no single server can alter results, is on our roadmap.

Independent Verification · Roadmap
Verify any vote receipt yourself.
We're building blockchain vote receipts you'll be able to verify independently — with the Baalot CLI or any node, no trust required. Here's a preview of how it will work.
