UIDAI has rolled out two new features to nix privacy concerns, says Anagh Pal
Worried about the safety of your sensitive, personal information due to news around compromise of Aadhaar data? Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) has come up with two antidotes—facial recognition and virtual ID—in an attempt to eliminate possibilities of such data breach and misuse.
Facial recognition will be made available from July 1 as a means of authentication along with a combination of fingerprints, iris scans or OTP to verify Aadhaar details. This will come as a relief to the elderly, many of whom have lost clarity of their fingerprints, and for those engaged in manual labour. Since a photo is captured at the time of Aadhaar enrollment and already stored in the database, there will be no need to capture any new data.
