Aadhaar Authentication Framework

Aadhaar Authentication Implementation Model

• Aadhaar authentication - process wherein Aadhaar number, along with other attributes

(demographic/biometrics/OTP) is submitted to UIDAI's Central Identities Data

Repository (CIDR) for verification

• CIDR responds with a “Yes/No”. No personal identity information is returned as part of

the response

• Authentication works on a Authentication Service Agency (ASA) –Authentication User

Agency (AUA) Framework. ASA provides a secure channel for sending the authentication

requests to the CIDR. AUA is User Department which intends to use Aadhaar

Authentication to verify its beneficiaries and deploys POS devices

Benefits

•Online real-time authentication from a secure system

•Biometrics not stored in the card or local machine/server – therefore, more reliable

•Required only a GPRS connectivity – size of authentication packet is < 1 KB

•Scalable ASA-AUA Model

•Economical – when compared to life cycle costs of issuing cards

Dos & Don’t of Aadhaar Authentication

What Aadhaar Authentication Will Do What Aadhaar Authentication Will Not Do

Authenticate against resident’s data in UIDAI’s CIDR

Authenticate against data stored on a smart card

Return response to requesting agencies as Yes/No

Return personal identity information of residents

Initiate request over mobile network, Landline network and broadband network

Remain restricted to broadband network

Require Aadhaar for every authentication request reducing transaction to1:1match

Search for Aadhaar based on details provided requiring 1:Nmatch

• Till Date, over 70 lakh Aadhaar Transactions are performed.• During the authentication, match is 1:1 i.e. biometrics captured during authentication are

compared with biometrics of that particular AADHAAR as existing in CIDR.• Best Finger Detection helps in identifying the fingers which result in great chances of match

during authentication process. BFD also helps to identify beneficiaries who may need to update their biometrics.

Authentication Service Delivery Model

Best Finger Detection

• BFD is against enrollment data• Enrollment quality impacts BFD selection

2 Finger Authentication

• During multiple attempts, simplified two finger scheme can be implemented which is detailed below. By retaining the last captured fingerprint minutiae in memory, application can only request one best finger and form two finger authentication requests. Sample capture flow process is indicated below.

Capture 1 – 1st best finger – single finger auth transactionIf fail, Capture 2 – 2nd best finger – two finger auth transaction ( using

capture 1 and 2)If fail, Capture 3 – 1st best finger – two finger auth transaction ( using

capture 2 and 3)

Aadhaar Authentication initiativesin Andhra PradeshFood & Civil Supplies Dept- Dept currently is disbursing

commodities to beneficiaries in 145 Fair Price Shops through Aadhaar

Authentication ( 100 FPS in East Godavari and 45 FPS in Hyderabad). Till date,

over 11 lakh Aadhaar authentication transactions are performed.

Multiple Seeding options are used by Dept which include • Inorganic Seeding through KYR+ Data• Organic Seeding – Mobile Field staff to collect UID from

beneficiary/ POS based seeding

Issues Addressed: - Connectivity: POS Devices are modified to support for

multiple mode of connectivity GPRS/BroadBand/PSTN ( Shadow areas in Urban Regions)

- Acceptability by Operators: Incentive Mechanism- Training and Capacity Building- Fraud Monitoring

Aadhaar Authentication initiativesin Andhra Pradesh

Social Welfare Dept- Govt of AP has an online application system for

scholarships called Electronic Payment and Application System of Scholarships-

EPASS. Aadhaar Authentication is integrated into existing workflow because of

which need for verification by Field officer to confirm the scholarship beneficiary

is removed.

It is proposed that scholarship amount will be disbursed to successfully

authenticated beneficiaries.

Dept is requesting the scholarship beneficiary to upload the scanned copy of

Aadhaar Letter and Bank Pass Book during the application for scholarship.

Departmental officers are using these scanned copies to verify the seeding

details and pass the verified information to LDM for Bank Seeding

Dept is also proposed to avail RASF Services for seeding.

.

Aadhaar Authentication initiativesin Andhra PradeshRural Development Dept – Dept in partnership with ICICI, Axis

Banks and Department of Post is currently disbursing NREGA wages and

Social Security Pensions in districts of Chittoor, East Godavari and

Anantapur through Aadhaar Authentication. Till date, over Rupees 100

Crores amount is disbursed through around 21 lakh Aadhaar authentications.

Dept of Post leverages the services of Branch Post Master ( BPM) to

organically seed data for pensioners. Dept of Post also made a provision

for POS based seeding.

State Resident Data Hub( SRDH) services are availed by RD Dept to aid in

seeding efforts.

UIDAI complaint MicroATMs are deployed by Banks & DoP for disbursing

Payments.

Aadhaar Authentication initiativesin Andhra PradeshRajiv Yuva Kiranalu – Dept is in process of integrating Aadhaar Authentication to conduct daily attendance monitoring of

trainees of RYK Program.

Issues observed in existing project include• Enrolment of Fake Candidates by Training Center• Recording of Fake Biometrics by Training Center• Training Center registers candidates with Ration Card,

for which there is no de-duplication.• Device level manipulation by Training Center• 90% of Training Centers are not claiming 3rd

installment

It is proposed that Aadhaar Authentication can be integrated into

existing Business Flow to conduct attendance monitoring of

students. Pilot

is launched in 4 training centers of East Godavari District

Authentication – Best Practices

• BFD and Two Finger Authentications- Improves the success rate for authentication. This needs to be planned at device UI level and proper operator training needs to be ensured. BFD is must do before any authentication attempt

• Mechanism for Aadhaar Seeding verification - Authentication could be rejected because of Aadhaar seeding issues. It is highly recommended to have a mechanism to verify/correct Aadhaar in database when resident comes for availing service for the first time.

• Operator training and Audits - There should be regular audit and training of operators to ensure that they improve constantly

• Appropriate Error Code handling at all levels -Clear and actionable messages should be configured at client level

• Fraud Monitoring and Analysis - Fraud monitoring mechanism required to ensure there is no misuse of exception handling mechanisms

• Issue reporting, tracking and resolution
