SecuGen India provides the Registered Device (RD) Service required for biometric authentication in India's Aadhaar ecosystem. The RD Service ensures that fingerprint data is encrypted and signed at the hardware level to prevent unauthorized storage or reuse. Critical Service Update (July 2025) As of July 1, 2025, several SecuGen L0 models—including
