Yes, Aadhaar card no may be publically available but UIAOI claims that Aadhaar is just like any other id like phone no, therefore, is never to be treated as a confidential document. By simply knowing someone's Aadhaar, no one can impersonate and harm him because Aadhaar alone is not sufficient, it requires biometrics to authenticate one's identity. Aadhar launched by the government of India has reached almost every part of India and almost every Indian is registered under it.

Aadhaar data is fully safe and secure and there has been no data leak or breach at UIDAI, " the authority said in response to a report based on RTI that 210 government website made Aadhaar information public. . "mere display of demographic information cannot be misused without biometrics, " the statement said.

Good evening friends,
Yes, the Adhaar card is secured according to my point of view. Because through adhar card we can identify the basic details such as address proof, dob, name, age. We can easily identify the person belong to the citizen of India and it is also useful for the government in recruitment process, bank account, railways reservation, domestic flight, etc.
It is also used to recognize a right and wrong person and protest terrorist attack in the form of security purpose.
Thanku.

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.

Yes, from my point of view, the Aadhar database is secure enough. And it is a great decision taken by our government to make Aadhar card compulsory 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 hackers 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.

In my point of view, aadhar is secured when compared to other cards. In India, aadhaar is equal to a green card in America. There are no cards that are perfect in database because hacking tricks increase day by day. From this reason, we also update the security in aadhar card also.

Hello everyone,
Well in my point of view Aadhaar is secure with some improvements still can be made; no system in the world can be perfectly secure but it can be made effective in improving the system, solving the glitches.
Aadhaar managed by UIDI gives a person a unique number, but that too is biometrically verified. A phone is attached to every Aadhaar card and process required to hack this system. However, being handled by the Indian Government they provide the best possible security but there are always some people who set the trap and there are some who fall in it. It means it much more depend on ourselves how to be aware of such frauds.

Yes, I think it is very secured thing. When we use Aadhar number any purpose as we know our bank accounts gas connection pan card voter I'd all these are connected with that 12 digit number. In Aadhar card, your mobile no is also attached when you access anything through your Aadhar no a notification msg is sent to your mobile no. When you approved that thing then only that service get accessed.
The government are taking gòod care of it that personal information of any individual is secured or not.
