What is Aadhar?

Unique Identification Number linked to a person’s demographic and biometric information.

Mission is full enrolment of all Indian residents, with special focus on poor and under privileged.

One of the main aim is to improve service delivery to the poor.

What problem Aadhar solves? Existing identity databases are laden

with problems of fraud and duplicate entries.

Aadhar will prevent this by ensuring proper information verification.

Suitable measures will be taken to include people lacking identification documents.

Aadhar Architecture

Page 5: AADHAR TECHNOLOGY Gurneet Kaur, Nitin Mangal. What is Aadhar?  Unique Identification Number linked to a person’s demographic and biometric information

Entities & Roles

UIDAI Will develop Aadhar database initially Will provide standards to be followed

Registrars Operate to provide enrolment services Eg. Dept in state govt, banks, telephone companies

Enrolment agency Provide necessary conditions for enrolment of

residents Collect demographic data prior to enrolment drive

Page 6: AADHAR TECHNOLOGY Gurneet Kaur, Nitin Mangal. What is Aadhar?  Unique Identification Number linked to a person’s demographic and biometric information

Entities & Roles

Introducer Authorized by UIDAI or Registrar Mechanism introduce to allow for missing

documents Typically officials, school teachers,

aanganwadi folks

Resident Indian national who wishes to obtain UIDAI

Page 7: AADHAR TECHNOLOGY Gurneet Kaur, Nitin Mangal. What is Aadhar?  Unique Identification Number linked to a person’s demographic and biometric information

Features

Enrolment on proper verification Demographic and biometric information

Central ID Repository (CIDR) A central UID database will be maintained

Leverage existing infrastructure Partner with agencies to act as ‘Registrars’

who will issue Aadhar after connecting with CIDR

Page 8: AADHAR TECHNOLOGY Gurneet Kaur, Nitin Mangal. What is Aadhar?  Unique Identification Number linked to a person’s demographic and biometric information

Features (contd)

Online authentication Provide way for agencies to compare data

with CIDR

Resident privacy All transactions with CIDR result only in

‘Yes’ or ‘No’

Security Aadhar database will use latest security

features

Network Security

Sensitive data flows over the network between the registrars and the UIDAI

Data encrypted using the public key provided by the registrar.

Registrar maintains the <public key, private key> pair securely.

De-Duplication

Comparison using biometric data (iris and ten fingerprints) – only one chance to enter database.

Enormous computing power needed – large “grid” of networked computers will be used.

Complex algorithms to quickly compare biometrics have been procured from specialist vendors.

Application hosted in CIDR

Enrolment – serves client enrolment request

Authentication – identity authentication services

Fraud Detection – misrepresentation of information

Administrative – user management, role, access

Analytics and Reporting – statistics, aggregate level

Information – information about the system

Contact Center – query the database Logistics – data, printing

UBCC

UIDAI Biometric Centre of Competence To design biometric systems that

enables India to achieve uniqueness in the national registry

UBCC will specify initial biometric systems and enhance features at regular intervals

Constantly innovate to push the state of the art in biometrics to achieve UIDAI’s objectives.
