As per my views, on this topic is positive for the secure database. If you use your Aadhaar no. Anywhere like when a person buy a sim card, KYC, Banking purpose then it will also send a mail as well as message to the registered email and registered mobile number. It is also secure because of the bio-metric.

Thanks.

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.

I agreed with all of you. As Aadhar is basically an identity proof but due to corruption and need for money has made the people corrupted in such a way that these cards are also being hacked. If all this continues, then there would not be a bright future for our country.

Hello everyone, I'm Devarshi.

In my opinion, the Aadhar databse is secured as the idea of safeguarding the individuals information is inherent in the UID Project. The data is collected by a UIDAI software and is encrypted to prevent any leaks during the transit.

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.

Hello Friends, I am Ram.

In my opinions, Adhar card is secure and a good initiative of the Indian government, earlier other identity cards miss used by other persons but now Aadhar card is secure and its accepted after biomatrix verification but it is also riskful for uneducated peoples because Adhar is recommended for every government schemes, bank and many more places.

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.

Aadhar database is not secured enough.

The thinking of cybercrime is going too far from the reach of government.

But there is one advantage of aadhar database, in today world all the things are linked with aadhar card in India.

Which gives all information to government.

Let's take an example-before 4-5 years people gave highschool exams many times to decrease age to get government jobs but after aadhar database it's not possible.

THANK YOU.

The Aadhar database of our government, is not secure enough. Cyber security experts say, that if any database is connected to a network, it can be hacked. Also, we've seen various cases of data being stolen with only the Aadhar numbers. Also, experts say that the firewall used by the government can easily be penetrated.

Hello friends, I Am Gurpreet Singh.

In My Opinion, Aadhaar card is very much beneficial for us and it is mostly used for unique identification authority of India.

While using Aadhaar card, we can also link with passport, LPG connection, bank account etc. Which is issued by government schemes.

So that every citizen gets the benefit of the schemes.

Aadhaar card is just like another identification card which is very much beneficial.
