+
+## Security Implementation
+
+### Implemented ✅
+- JWT token-based authentication
+- Password hashing with bcrypt (backend)
+- Token expiration (30 minutes default)
+- Secure token storage in localStorage
+- Environment-based API URL configuration
+- CORS middleware configured
+- Password strength requirements (8+ chars, uppercase, number, special char)
+- Form field validation with Zod
+
+### Recommended for Production ⚠️
+- [ ] Use HttpOnly cookies instead of localStorage
+- [ ] Implement refresh token rotation
+- [ ] Add rate limiting on auth endpoints
+- [ ] Implement password reset flow
+- [ ] Enable HTTPS on all connections
+- [ ] Restrict CORS to frontend domain only
+- [ ] Add request signing/verification
+- [ ] Implement audit logging
+- [ ] Add IP whitelisting
+- [ ] Set up monitoring and alerts
+
+---
+
+## Testing Workflow
+
+### Manual Testing Steps
+```bash
+# 1. Start Backend
+cd /home/sorti/projects/CIA/e-voting-system
+poetry shell
+uvicorn backend.main:app --reload
+
+# 2. Start Frontend
+cd frontend
+npm run dev
+
+# 3. Test in Browser (http://localhost:3000)
+# - Register new user
+# - Login with credentials
+# - View dashboard (should show elections)
+# - Logout (should redirect to home)
+# - Test form validation errors
+```
+
+### Test Cases
+- [ ] Registration with invalid email
+- [ ] Registration with weak password
+- [ ] Login with wrong password
+- [ ] Dashboard loads without authentication (should redirect)
+- [ ] Dashboard shows user name in header
+- [ ] Election data loads on dashboard
+- [ ] Logout clears session and redirects
+- [ ] Protected routes redirect to login when not authenticated
+- [ ] Form validation shows inline errors
+- [ ] Password confirmation mismatch detected

+### Branch Information
+- **Current**: `UI` (New Next.js frontend with full integration)
+- **Backup**: `backup` (Old React CRA frontend)
+- **Main**: `paul/evoting` (Base development branch)
+
+---
+
+## Performance Metrics
+
+### Build Time
+- Compilation: 1.9-4.1 seconds
+- Full build: 5-10 seconds
+- Development server start: ~3 seconds
+
+### Bundle Sizes
+- Shared JavaScript: 102 kB
+- Home page: 105 kB First Load
+- Auth pages: 145 kB First Load (includes Zod + React Hook Form)
+- Dashboard pages: 113-117 kB First Load
+- Per-page markup: 2-4 kB
+
+### Network
+- API latency: ~50-100ms (local)
+- Token expiration: 30 minutes
+- Session persistence: Browser localStorage
+
+---
+
+## Validation & Type Safety
+
+### Form Validation Schemas
+```typescript
+loginSchema              // email, password
+registerSchema          // firstName, lastName, email, password (8+ chars, upper, digit, special)
+profileUpdateSchema     // All user fields with optional address/phone
+passwordChangeSchema    // Current password + new password confirmation
+voteSubmissionSchema    // Election ID + candidate selection
+```
+
+### Type Safety Guarantees
+- ✅ All API responses typed
+- ✅ All form data typed
+- ✅ Zero use of `any` type
+- ✅ React Hook Form fully typed with Zod
+- ✅ Full TypeScript support throughout
+
+---
+
