Morpho’s latest-generation technology deployed by the Mahindra Satyam/Morpho consortium has played a pivotal role in the program for de-duplication of the biometric records enabling issuance of unique identification numbers. The Aadhaar project aims to deliver a unique number to each Indian resident, which will provide highly secure access (using fingerprint and iris recognition) to a wide range of benefits and services. The Mahindra Satyam/Morpho consortium is one of the three biometric solution providers contracted for the initial phase of this program during which 200 million residents are expected to be registered. “We are truly proud that our cutting-edge biometric technology has allowed the UIDAI authority to reach the two million milestone in this large-scale project,” commented Jean-Paul Jainsky, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Morpho. “This achievement highlights the efforts and commitment of all the partners involved to make the Aadhaar program a success.” www.morpho.com
