Yes, from my point of view, Aadhar database is secure enough. And it is a great decision taken my our government to make aadhar card compulsary in every field like in government field, bank accounts, job applications form etc. So aadhar card number is essential day by day. Everything is linked with your Aadhar number like bank acc. And if a hacker wants to hack your account through your Aadhar number he or she won't be successful because at the end of the process it requires an OTP (one time password) which is the most important part of that. The OTP is sent on your mobile number which is linked through your Aadhar card. So hacker can't have the access to your otp without your knowledge. And it will only be possible if you are a dumbass or idiot. So be aware and keep calm everything will be okay it's secure enough.

Is the Aadhar database secured enough?

Aadhar database is the initiative taken by the government of India, which contains people's basic and biometric information, which is used several times as an ID proof of the people. Now the point is whether the data is secured enough or not. There is no doubt on the security of data as it works under the UIDAI (Unique Identification Authority Of India). But if the ID is being hacked it requires identification code which is nothing but the OTP and which is only sent to users mobile phones. And Aadhar is the most used document as an Id proof of people. But the point is, at present newly citizenship bill has been passed by the parliament and the president of India which is now the act. So in that case, the Aadhar database is not secured enough for the identification of people.

Aadhaar card provides a unique identification number to every citizen of India. It is a smart step taken by the prime minister for the digitalization of the country.

When we talk about the security of stuff connected to our Aadhar card, Government organizations are working to provide maximum security.

Aadhaar card number can be accessed by anybody but, for various security purposes biometric as well as OTP authentication securities are provided by it which is far better than any other card in India in terms of security.

We can add some other security features in Aadhaar card with the help of various industries government should also give the opportunity to a private organization to add various security features after examining add on features.

Security is a major issue in today's world.

Aadhaar is a unique identity in India which requires everywhere for every purpose. It's good decision taken by govt to link Aadhaar to a bank account, pan card, even Aadhaar is like identity card of India. This decision is very Resultable for the age is below 18. Because this category doesn't have any identity of India.

One issue happened last month that one small boy rescue by just because of Aadhaar card.

But on another side, we have to secure firmly this. Because our every information are linked with Aadhaar if someone stole our Aadhaar then it is very easy to hack our personal Information because they can easily know about our DOB.

So moral is that Aadhaar is the best thing to grow our country only we have to implement more security for that.

Thanks.

Hello friends. Aadhaar is one of the most important Identity for everyone. Nowadays it is compulsory in every field like in government field, bank accounts, job application form etc. Moreover people have their personal information linked to Aadhar so they might be quite worried about misuse of information or they might be thinking that is it safe or not ? So according to UIDAI i.e. Unique Identification Authority of India uptil now there is not a single case of financial loss due to Aadhar. For any Aadhar access we require finger print scanning and two IRIS scan and at the end of all the process we get one OTP i.e.one time password which comes on our mobile number linked to Aadhaar. So looking to all these securities I think Aadhaar database is secured.

Hi everyone!

Today's topic is the Aadhar database is secured or not.

I consider that the data of Aadhar card is fully secured. Because it is not easy for hackers to hack our accounts or stole for personal details because for all these things they need an OTP code that is on your phone.

That's why it's not easy to hack them.

And our government takes a good initiative. So it is very beneficial for us. And it is used in every field because Aadhar card contains our id password that is used in every field. Such as bank account and in any type of form filling. So it helps us in every field of life. Because with the help of an id password we can do many things. Finally we all thanks our government who takes a good decision for our country.

Thankyou you.

Adhaar database is secured enough because if hacker wants to hack his/her details he can hack easily but he can't get much information except contact details or address. If hacker wants more details he will use contact details but it is not useful for them because OTP will be send to that number and that sim or number is not with him so he can't get more details about anyone except their address or contact details.

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.

Thank you.

Hello, Everyone, I am Shahzaman Khair.

I would like to mention some important aspects of Adhar card. Right now Adhar is the most important documents in India. It was a good initiative by the government. It is useful for every person of India because every individual's details captured in Aadhar through Biometric. Earlier ID cards could be misused by other people for example Sim card registration so in terms of this condition. Aadhar is the most convenient Documents in many parameters and it is secured. It can't miss used by any person. But it is risky because of govt mandates in Banks, Government schemes and many places. Right now cybercrime is common So govt should make a more secure Aadhar database. Then it will be more beneficial for Indians.

I want to put my view here;

Nowadays Aadhaar card is needed for everyone everywhere.

So the Government of India made such brilliant things for their society it has been helped us in many things either bank propose, verify ourself to anywhere by Aadhaar card. We have proof that we all are Indian. Obviously, Government has taken this decision so our data would be saved. They may have enough security for this.

This decision was taken by Government. It should fully depend on our Government to take responsibility for it.

It is also unique identification and with the help of the Aadhaar card, it has been helping to the more rural area people. They are using it more.

So my conclusion is that it had a good decision taken by our government.

Hello everyone.

We have topic 'Is Aadhar database secured enough' to discuss here.

UIDAI (Unique identity authority of India) declared publicly that Aadhar is fully secured and safe as there is no date leak at UIDAI. Report based on RTI clarifies that 210 gov websites made Aadhar information public.

By simply knowing Aadhar number no one can harm your personal data because only the Aadhar number is not sufficient, it requires biometric to identify Aadhar details.

Hacker will not be able to harm your private details until you are alert because for any transaction they require OTP that has been shared only with your own mobile number.

In my opinion, Aadhar database is secured enough until you are alert with your mobile data exchange.
