Is the Aadhaar database secured enough?

Hello guys,

First of all, thank you for giving me a chance to express my views on the topic of Aadhar card system. The Aadhar card gives us an identity of self. In Aadhar card our personal information is mentioned and we can use it a various places like bank and other place. It provided us with more security comparison to voter id by it's biometric.

I don't think Aadhaar database is secured enough as there is a substantial increase in hacking incidents where even our credits and debit cards are not secured. It is always found that this many amounts of card details have been made public so how one can trust Aadhaar. The government should lookover on this matter very seriously.

Hi.

Aadhar card is safe and more advantage for every person, like if apply the govt job to easily provide Aadhar card, this is not a normal database this is your biometric and including eye scanner, this is very useful for the police department, if you go abroad this is the main source to identity to you are an Indian, Aadhar is proof of you are an Indian citizen.

First of all I thank you for giving me opportunity to Speak on this topic,

Aadhar card makes a individual secure about his/her identity.

If you are in India, Aadhar is used every other place like stations, office, Booking train tickets / Bus tickets, Hotel rooms etc.

We cannot say Aadhar is completely secure an OTP is sent for validation purpose only, if their is any slight Chance you miss your wallet moving from one place to another things becomes challenging.

In my opinion, Aadhaar card is not safe as there is much evidence of breach this year about the security of Aadhaar. Even today Adhaar card of UIAOI chief executive is hacked as he gave his 12 digit Aadhaar card on Twitter challenging hackers that Aadhaar card security is top notch but his bank account is hacked and Rs 1 is added in a bank account so it is safe to say it Adhaar card is not secure.

Saying that Aadhaar card is 100 per cent safe and secure would be a personified statement. No doubt individual's data is stored in the UIDAI software which is then encrypted and thereby preventing data leaks. But recent cases about data leaks can't be ignored as in the case of are S. Sharma and leakages have also occured due to government websites, apps, third party leakages etc. Data leak incident of M. S. Dhoni which led to the blacklisting of CSC e-governance services is a perfect example of leakage of personal information due to human errors. So, Aadhaar is not completely safe.

The AADHAR was launched for the unique identification of the citizens of India. The current government is trying to link this identification to every public services. All the ban accounts, SIMs, PAN are linked so no one can hide any thing from government There has been many incidents of hacking into personal data through the UIDAI sever, which is a critical falw in the system. Recently the UIDAI has issued guidelines for not sharing the AADHAR number into public domains or social media this shows our secrets are not safe. Hackers are getting all the personal data through this which can lead to any serious criminal happenings with anyone.

Hello everyone I am Antara Saha.

Everyone point of view is different from their sides. From my side, Aadhar Card is useful for us. It can carry unique identification. Person's every identity is included there.

Before some years ago when we want to create our bank account or something like that we need many things but now a days for creating bank account or similar types of things we just only need Aadhar Card. That is much easier. And that will reduces people's golden times. We don't need our others extra ordinary details for all time through only Aadhar Card we can do everything.

Hello friend. I am sukanta.

In my point of view, the database of Aadhar is secure every time because it is not linked to any other database. But sometimes some hacker hacks this database for criminal activities. It is also th responsibility for India government to secure from hackers.

There has been a number of cases where people's data privacy has been breached through Aadhar database. This clearly shows that it is not secured enough. The database is created and stored with the help of biometrics like iris, fingerprints but still it can be accessed by hackers.
