Nigeria's Architecture is almost entirely represented by 21st-century architecture in

This unique characteristic of ransomware malware has drawn the attention of security professionals and researchers striving to develop safer, high-assurance systems capable of effectively detecting and preventing such attacks. This paper delves into the recent high-profile data breaches instigated by ransomware, such as those experienced by Colonial Pipeline, Kaseya, and MGM Resorts International. It further explores the role of social engineering in these incidents and emphasizes the importance of understanding the psychological triggers that make individuals susceptible to these tactics. This paper concludes by identifying potential areas for future research, highlighting how social engineering contributes to these attacks, including the impact of emerging technologies on ransomware attacks and the effectiveness of current cyber threat training programs.

It delves into advancements in homomorphic encryption, post-quantum cryptography, and zeroknowledge proofs, which are fundamental to ensuring the security and privacy of online voting systems. The study also investigates robust auditing processes, including using blockchain technology for transparency and risk-limiting audits. Furthermore, it advocates for stricter regulations for private companies involved in electronic voting and emphasizes the importance of user-friendly cryptographic interfaces and educational initiatives. The research integrates human factors research and addresses legal and ethical considerations of online voting cryptographic protocols. The findings underscore the need for a multi-faceted approach to realize secure, reliable, and user-friendly online voting systems.
