News: The Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) has launched its first structured Bug Bounty Programme.
About Bug Bounty Programme
- It is the first structured programme to enhance the security of the Aadhaar ecosystem by inviting cybersecurity experts to identify potential vulnerabilities in its digital platforms.
- Launched by: Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI)
- Aim: It aims at proactively identifying and fixing security gaps before they can be exploited.
- Implementation: The programme is being implemented in collaboration with ComOlho IT Private Limited.
- Features:
- Under the initiative, a panel of 20 experienced security researchers and ethical hackers has been selected to examine key UIDAI digital assets.
- Key UIDAI digital assets include the official UIDAI website, the myAadhaar portal and the Secure QR Code application.
- The programme allows experts to test the systems for potential security weaknesses and report them responsibly.
- Identified vulnerabilities will be classified into Critical, High, Medium and Low risk categories, with researchers receiving rewards depending on the severity of the issues discovered.
- The programme adds another layer of information security by allowing independent experts to help detect hidden risks and strengthen the resilience of Aadhaar’s digital infrastructure.
