Aadhaar Data Protection: HabileLabs’ AI-Powered Masking Solution for Enhanced Security and Compliance


On May 27, 2022, the Ministry of Electronics & Information Technology (MeitY) issued a crucial advisory mandating that everyone should share masked versions of their Aadhaar IDs rather than photocopies of the originals. This directive aims to protect individuals from identity theft. The Indian government has enforced stringent regulations to safeguard sensitive personal information, with Aadhaar numbers and QR codes being key to identity verification processes across the nation. Non-compliance with these regulations can result in severe penalties, legal consequences, and significant damage to an institution’s reputation.

For over a decade, banks, NBFCs, insurance companies, and background verification firms have been collecting Aadhaar card documents digitally for KYC purposes. These institutions now face the daunting task of managing millions of pages of documents, often stored in unclassified formats, which include Aadhaar and non-Aadhaar documents alike. Considering MeitY’s guidelines, particularly for regulated entities like banks and NBFCs, it has become critical to classify these documents and mask Aadhaar numbers and QR codes.

Several challenges complicate this task, such as the poor quality of digitally scanned copies, some of which are unreadable by the human eyes and the enormous volume of data, often stored in terabytes. Additionally, the documents may exist in various formats and languages, further complicating the masking process. Existing solutions tend to be cost-prohibitive, charging per page scanned, making them unviable for large-scale operations.

HabileLabs offers a breakthrough solution to these challenges with its AI-based Aadhaar Bulk Masking and API solution. This unique solution runs in the customer’s environment, ensuring the highest accuracy without incurring per-page costs. It guarantees full compliance with all regulations and has already processed, classified, and masked over 40 terabytes (TB) of data for various organizations.
