Is the Aadhaar database secured enough?

Good Morning.

Thank you for giving me the opportunity to give my opinion to this amazing topic. Is the Aadhaar database secured enough?

First of all, I want to explain the feature of Aadhaar card, Aadhar card is the combination of our all the documentary evidence that include our biometric information such as fingerprints, eye scan, etc. Our other documents like pan card, voter id, passport, bank passbook, etc. Are linked to Aadhaar card so we don't need to carry these card along with us. Because government providing the facility to us ''one nation one card''. It is secured for the general public that no one can get the personal identity of an individual, without his prior permission, because it is linked to the mobile number of the user, if anyone tries to log in then automatically a message prompt to this registered mobile number and user will be notified. Even if anyone try to do any banking transactions with Aadhaar card it requires users fingerprints. So in this sense, we can say it is OK. But, If I think about the security of the Aadhaar database, In one word, I can say it is also secured, But I can't say it is cen percent secured. Because recently a news we hared that a website leaked over 5 lakhs Aadhaar card's data, and then the government has banned the website. If I say the security of Aadhaar database in this point of view I can say, if the Aadhaar database is secured enough then how can the data get leaked. Keeping in mind these things the government of India has to reserve more cyber security experts in the system of the Aadhaar database. So in my opinion, It's OK but not completely secured.

Thank you.

Adhar was introduced by the govt to make the government more transparent. A very famous judgement i.e. (puttaSwami vs union of India) of supreme court is also linked to it concerning the right to privacy. As per my opinion I think we can trust Aadhar and it is very well secured. The underlying technique behind Aadhar I. E, the biometrics makes it duplicate proof. Initially there was much debate about it, people were saying it will do some harm with their right to privacy but we all are very well aware of the today's scenario. Of course, govt was trying to bring Aadhar in almost every aspect but as supreme court said that in Aadhar act it was clearly mentioned that it is going to be used for direct benefit transfer of services. Aadhar is just treated as a resident and identity proof and the govt is using it for providing the benefits of various schemes. Moreover, the Aadhaar database also facilitates targeted policy making.

See for now, I am saying that Aadhar is best for data base because now a day all things that belong to Aadhar means all the data ex:- if you want to purchase a single sim then you need Aadhar if you want to make your voting card than you need your Aadhar.

Now also Aadhar takes too much data and secured data safely so it's good.

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, 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.

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.

About security, there is no doubt that it is secured by 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 the Aadhaar 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.

Nowadays Aadhaar card is mandatory for everything. It is the identity of a person. Now your identity card is checked everywhere it may be airport or station. It is also used in banks for opening any type of account. Now everyone is using adhaar card as their identity card. In my opinion, Aadhaar database is secured enough.

Good morning friends, I am Rahul Kumawat.

I am glad to start the discussion, Friends the topic given to us is 'Is the Aadhar database secured enough?'.

In my opinion, the topic is related to our daily uses.

I believe that nowadays Aadhar is the ID from which a person can be identified. From this, we can open a bank account and can buy a new sim within a minute. It is secured enough as it includes biometrics like iris verification and fingerprint verification and also has an OTP validation if in case you lost your Aadhaar then you can lock your Aadhar by a website provided by the Indian government so that no one can illegally use your Aadhar.

Yes, it's secure because our Aadhar card data contained a lot of information about the identity of all Indians so the more focus on the security purpose no one can misuse that data because it's under security I heard about the news the data of liked by one website in India but Indian gov band that website so in seeing all perspectives. I am not thinking about the security of the data.

An Aadhar card is the most important document proof is required to an opening bank account or sim purchase but it gives a proper security scanning system so, I think the data is secured in my opinion.

I think the Aadhaar card I one of the most important I'd for Indian because maximum Indian have an Aadhaar and this is like an identity of Indian.

This shows our real identity and saves us with a fake id. This is more secure than others I'd because there is unique authentication than other ids.
