What is AVault?

AVault from Adwebtech is a PKI encrypted data store which is highly secure. AVault undertakes tokenization of all Aadhaar data. Aadhaar Data Vault is centralized storage for all the Aadhaar numbers collected by the AUAs/KUAs/Sub-AUAs/ or any other agency for specific purposes under Aadhaar Act and Regulations, 2016. It is a secure system inside the respective agency’s infrastructure accessible only on a need to know basis.

Aadhaar Number has been identified as the “Identity Information” under the Aadhaar Act 2016 and can uniquely identify residents in India. Since it’s the lifetime identity of the residents of India and will be used to avail various services in India involving financial transactions, and unauthorized access to the Aadhaar number can be devastating because it can be misused in many ways. The objective of the Aadhaar vault is to reduce the footprint of the Aadhaar number within the system/ environment of the organization hence reduce the risk of unauthorized access.
