UIDAI Plans to Scale Aadhaar Authentications to 300 Million Daily with Enhanced AI SecurityPreviousNext

UIDAI Chairperson Neelkanth Mishra announced that Aadhaar currently processes around 100 million daily authentications and is preparing to scale up to 250-300 million to meet growing demand. The system supports over 600 entities and has nearly 60 million app downloads. UIDAI is enhancing security using AI, machine learning, and post-quantum cryptography to counter hundreds of daily cyberattacks. New tools like a face authentication SDK aim to expand Aadhaar's digital use cases while maintaining data protection and enabling local verification by partner institutions.
