With voter confidence more important than ever, ProVoteSolutions is proud to offer GHOSTmark comprehensive security features.
Most paper ballots contain no security technology, resulting in an untraceable chain of custody. But our GHOSTmark technology incorporates multiple levels of security to ensure fast, easy validation and a fully-traceable chain of custody, giving voters a greater sense of confidence.
Developed by ProVoteSolutions and our sister company, International Security Products (ISP), GHOSTmark embeds several leading-edge security protocols within multi-colored UV inks used in ballot printing. GHOSTmark ballots can be customized for a particular state or county – even a specific election – while maintaining complete anonymity to ensure voter privacy.
GHOSTmark advantages:
- Covert security: The multi-colored UV inks are invisible to the naked eye, so voters are unaware security exists on the ballot. (Overt printing also available.)
- Black light visibility: GHOSTmark incorporates multi-colored UV pigments that glow under a black light for easy validation by election officials.
- Infrared security: GHOSTmark also embeds a rare infrared (IR) taggant that can be verified by election officials with an IR reader and is virtually impervious to fire and chemical exposure.
- Customizable added security: The GHOSTmark seal can be modified to incorporate additional security features such as microtext and intentional errors.
- Flexibility: GHOSTmark security works with any current election papers and systems, and can be licensed or provided to any current printer.
- Cost effectiveness: GHOSTmark is an economical security solution costing far less than what is proposed in legislation currently under consideration.
- Proven results: GHOSTmark technology has been deployed in live elections since November 2023 with tremendous success.
