The article contains an analysis of the problems and prospects of the implementation of electronic voting in Ukraine through the prism of assessing potential threats. An expert survey has been conducted on the threats of implementing electronic voting during elections in Ukraine, which is based on the author's methodology for calculating the level of electronic voting security. Based on the expert assessment of 4 groups of security threats have obtained as a result of the expert survey, the author's assessment of the feasibility and prospects of the implementation of electronic voting in Ukraine was made.
