According to the methodology approved, the documents, the software, the hardware, the processing, storage and downloading of the information shall be subject to control, as will the election process itself – for example whether a voter can cast their vote more than once, whether unauthorized access to the machines for other purposes is possible, whether there is any risk of disclosure of the vote etc.
