NEW DELHI: Unique Identification Authority of India<\/a> (UIDAI) has said that all devices using Aadhaar<\/a> authentication will have to adhere to its new encryption standards from June 1.
\n
\nThe move is aimed at adding another security layer to the hardware at a time when such devices are all set to take the centre stage in biometric-based digital payments.
\n
\n\"We have recently come out with new specifications and asked manufacturers and vendors to go for STQC certification as per the new standards. We have advised that from June 1, they should get devices on the new specifications and that the existing devices should be upgraded to the new norms,\" Ajay Bhushan Pandey, CEO of UIDAI told PTI.
\n
UIDAI is the nodal body responsible for rolling out Aadhaar, the 12-digit unique identification number that identifies residents based on their
biometrics<\/a>. While more than 112 crore Aadhaar have been generated in the country, the Aadhaar authentications have crossed 500 crore, and 100 crore e-KYC<\/a> have been done on the platform.
\n
\nPandey, however, emphasised that only those devices that wish to use Aadhaar authentication, would have to meet the new standards.
\n
\nOnly such 'registered devices' that incorporate the new specifications would be allowed to perform Aadhaar authentication.
\n
\n\"We are continuously trying to tighten the security. We felt that while the system is secure, we want to further improve the security by building one more layer. So, if the device itself can be encrypted it will be harder to break into the system,\" he said.
\n
\nSimplifying this, he said that while two locks exist currently - one at the level of agency and another at UIDAI - the new system will place a third lock on the biometric device itself.
\n
\nHe said that UIDAI has been been in talks with the device manufacturers for almost 1.5 years for implementation of the new specifications. In this period, Aadhaar has seen its numbers swell both in terms of enrolment and authentication.
\n
\nThe Aadhaar daily authentications now stand at almost 2 crore against 10 lakh about 1.5 years ago.
\n
\n\"Unless they see demand, no manufacturer will manufacture as per your specification. Now manufacturers too are showing interest...They know when they make specially designed biometric fingerprint scanner for Aadhaar and put another lock as per UIDAI's requirement, it will sell in the market. Hence, they are open to the idea,\" Pandey said.

新德里消息:印度唯一标识的权威(UIDAI)表示,所有的设备使用Aadhaar认证必须坚持其新的加密标准从6月1日。

此举旨在增加另一个安全层硬件时,这些设备都将采取中心舞台在biometric-based数字支付。

“我们最近推出新的规范和要求制造商和供应商去STQC按新标准认证。我们建议从6月1日,他们应该得到设备在新规范和现有的设备应该升级到新规范,”首席执行官Ajay Bhushan Pandey UIDAI PTI说。

UIDAI节点主体负责推出Aadhaar, 12位数的独特的识别号码,识别居民根据自己的生物识别技术。而超过112卢比的Aadhaar已经生成,Aadhaar认证已经跨过了500卢比,100卢比e-KYC已经完成的平台。

然而Pandey,强调只有那些希望使用Aadhaar身份验证的设备,达到新标准。

只有这样注册设备,结合新规范将被允许执行Aadhaar身份验证。

“我们不断努力加强安全。我们觉得系统是安全的,我们要进一步提高安全通过构建一个层。所以,如果可以加密设备本身就很难进入这个系统,”他说。

简化这个问题,他说,目前存在两个锁——一个层面的机构,另一个在UIDAI——新系统将第三个锁在生物识别设备本身。

他说,UIDAI一直在与设备制造商近1.5年新规范的实施。在这一时期,Aadhaar的数量膨胀的入学率和身份验证。

Aadhaar每日认证现在站在几乎2卢比的对10十万的大约1.5年前。

“除非他们看到需求,没有厂家会按你们的规格制造。现在制造商也表现出兴趣…他们知道当他们让Aadhaar特别设计的生物指纹扫描仪,把另一个按UIDAI锁的要求,它将在市场上出售。因此,他们是开放的,”Pandey说。
