Prof. Aman Aggarwal, a renowned economist, and a senior vice-chairman at the Indian Institute of Finance based in India participate in Risk Roundup to discuss the Security Risks of the Aadhar Payment System.
Security Risks of Aadhar Payment System
While the increasing number of nations are trying to create a unique identification number for all their citizens, the lack of effective legal framework, regulations, identification and authentication tools, and technologies are creating complex security challenges.
As a result, Identity fraud is becoming a growing global problem. Irrespective of whether the fraud is tied to social security numbers (SSNs) in the United States or UID numbers in India or the digital ID in Estonia or in Spain; the emerging reality of identity fraud, crimes, and complex security risks is a cause of great concern.
Defining and designing a system at the national level is a complex challenge. So, as we evaluate, Aadhar Act, the Unique Identification Number, the Aadhar Payment System, and the Universal Payment Interface, it seems that the security risks begin with the UID numbers. The time is now to understand and evaluate the security risks emerging from the Aadhar Payment System and the Universal Payment Interface.
