Benefits of using STARTEK with RD Service- Device identification
Each and every device comes with a unique identifier that allows traceability, security, and fraud management. With the rising number of data breaches in recent times, the data is not stored in the device and subsequently provides an additional security layer.
Removing the need for stored biometrics
The system captures the biometric data using the provided key for security. An encrypted PID block is provided by the Registered Device (RD) Service before returning back to the host application to nullify all possibilities of a data breach.
Certified registration
Secure and certified registration is performed by the Registered Device (RD) service with Aadhaar. RD Service summarizes the capture of biometric of an individual, encryption of biometrics within it, and also previewing any user experience during the capture of biometrics.
RD Service supplies UIDAI certification to the devices. It also provides end-to-end security at all steps required from signing-in, capturing biometrics and protection, and encryption of data necessary for the registration process.
Conclusion
The Digital Era has provided many benefits to the people. It has made the world more connected through digitization. This has led to an increase in demand for Digital Signature Certificate (DSC). This is where STARTEKwith RD Service comes into the picture to avail the benefits of linking of Aadhaar is a must, and it must be done so securely.
