Aadhaar Masking

A report in the Technology edition of the Economic Times has reported on the recent twin product launches at IDfy – Aadhaar Masking and Video KYC. The report says that “both these mechanisms can help companies authenticate their users lawfully and at a cheaper cost”.

30 May 2022 The Ministry of Electronics & Information Technology (MeitY) has recently urged the use of masked Aadhaar to prevent misuse of personal information.

Automated Masking of Aadhaar Number


IDfy’s automated masking processes the image of an uploaded Aadhaar card and delivers the same image with the first 8 digits of the Aadhaar number masked. This allows organizations in authenticating users while keeping customers’ data private and secure. The masking process is completed in 8 seconds.

“We are happy to provide a solution that provides for comprehensive fraud detection while respecting people’s privacy,” said Wriju Ray, co-founder and CBO, IDfy. “With Automated Masking, we are bringing the benefits of eKYC back to the industry while ensuring that people’s data remains private.”

He worried about his woefully inadequate credit history and his inability to provide a land bank as collateral for his loan – a common expectation from the lending officer at the bank.
