Good morning everyone,

I would like to make a point. What I think is Aadhar was a good initiative taken by the Modi government in 2014.

It was a good move for a step towards digital India. By Aadhar, the government has a database of everyone so that a proper channel would be maintained. As this thing is solely operated by our government of India hence it is completely secured.

Yes, from my point of vie, w the Aadhar is secured. The facilities for poors by government are reached through adhar. The curruption rate reduced. As the whole information like address phone no, bank account, is linked with adhar the one can easily know the person and take action against the terrorism.

Thank you.

First of all, thank you for giving me an opportunity to put my views on a very amazing topic i.e. is the Aadhaar database secured enough,

So, first of all, I want to start my discussion by explaining some of the basic features which the Aadhaar card is having.

It has all the data related to our biometrics which includes our iris scan, and fingerprint scan it starts under the slogan of one nation one card talking about some of the advantages which the Aadhar card is giving us is; First, in an earlier time, we need to carry a bunch of documents to open a single bank account but now because of Adhaar card it becomes very simple and easy, in earlier days even for activation of a single sim card it almost takes 4-5 days but now agent just take our fingerprint scan and validate with our Aadhar database after validation it activates within a second which is very good from the part of digital India also.

Yes, it can be handled by the ministry of E&IT cell.

Aadhar is mandatory because it is a basic document which means other documents are also dependent on it. It proves that you are a legal and authenticate INDIAN person.

It also takes our IDs like our Retina, fingerprint and so on.

And that's the reason it is a crucial and secure document in INDIA.

It would be exaggerated if I say it is more secure!.

Recently I have listened.

Someone has two Aadhaar number of the same identity. How is it possible? it only possible when data leaks. It does not mean that govt take no step against the security of data. Nowadays UAIDAI has announced about virtual id which will be valid till 24 hours. Everywhere you were asked Aadhaar number then you must be used 16 digits virtual id which is generated by UAIDAI.

Hello everyone, As per my view, Aadhaar database is not secure enough. Because before some days a news is came on different era about Aadhaar database is not secure. I think government is not recruit more knowledgeable person to take care about it. If it going on like this then one day Aadhaar database will be hacked by hacker.

But nowadays the high court said that the Aadhar card is not necessary for the sim card, college, school. That is the most imp thing is that the aadhar is not madatory for all the identities.

That from the above discussion it is proved that by the honourable supreme court the data is not secured as high as required.

I think the Aadhar database is secure until one gives his own detail to the public. For example if I give my phone number here then am exposing my detail to all of them until that no one knows our phone number same like government database is safe but its depend on the other vendor like networks and other sectors who do not protect them recently TRAI lead has posted his Aadhar card number online in a challenging manner to hacker to hack his details and that lead to his data leak. That's what I have pointed out in beginning information is been passed out only from actual owner knowingly or unknowingly. After that court has reclaimed the order to mandatory for Aadhar to banks that's a good move by them.

Hi,

Every coin has two sides like that Aadhaar has positives and negatives.

Positive side might be linking to bank account linking for all such activities but if their database would be hacked all data might be easily stolen by hackers anything and everything might be stolen (data) so security measures must be taken for securing enough and Aadhaar has also a good thing if anyone lost or someone is missing we can use the data and find the person easily easy identification.

Hii everyone.

Myself Mohit Kumawat.

The topic is Aadhaar database is secure enough.

Aadhar is the main identity of an Indian. It is necessary for many works like as bank works, sim verification, govt schemes etc.

Point is that Aadhar database is secure or not.

It is not 100% secure because we know many hackers can take a high tech. System on behalf of its basic information so nothing is 100% secure but our govt is trying to make it more secure for example link Aadhar with biometric.

But we should careful against fake calls through which they want to know our personal details to break our security system.

Thanks.
