Ahmedabad, Gujarat Oct 1, 2025 (Issuewire.com) - Mantra Softech Receives UIDAI Recognition for Innovation in Biometric Authentication
Mantra Softech, a leading provider of biometric and identity management solutions, has been honored with the Certificate of Recognition for Outstanding Contribution to Innovation in Biometric Authentication Solutions by the Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI).
The certificate was presented by Shri Bhuvnesh Kumar, IAS CEO, UIDAI, together with the UIDAI leadership team, to Mr. Hiren Bhandari, Director Technical, and Mr. Bhavyen Bhandari, Director Project, during the fourth Aadhaar Samvaad hosted by UIDAI in Hyderabad. This recognition highlights Mantra Softechs pioneering development of the most accurate spoof detection technology in biometrics, an innovation that sets a new benchmark in secure identity management.
Tackling the Challenge of Spoofing in Biometric Systems
Biometric authentication has become an integral part of Indias digital identity infrastructure, powering secure access for millions across government, banking, telecom, and enterprise ecosystems. However, as adoption has grown, so have the threats. Fraudulent attempts using fake fingerprints, silicone molds, digital projection, and paper projection pose serious challenges to the integrity of biometric systems.
Recognizing these risks, Mantra Softech dedicated significant R&D resources to developing a solution that could accurately detect and prevent spoofing attempts in real time. This led to the creation of one of the worlds most advanced spoof detection technologies, combining AI-driven liveness detection with compliance to global security standards.
The Innovation: Most Accurate Spoof Detection Technology
The technology that earned Mantra Softech this recognition is designed to fortify biometric systems against increasingly sophisticated attacks.
