Could the Chinese military be linked to FDIC cyberattacks?

If we’ve learned anything in the last few months it’s that seemingly, no entity is safe from hacking. From banks to ballot boxes (or rather, voter registration systems), occurrences of high security breaches have been on the rise. And now, the FBI is investigating how hackers managed to make their way into computers at the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC). Unfortunately, this isn’t a new case — it’s been going on since at least 2010.

As per a new Reuters reports, FDIC

Snap doubled its acquisitions in 2016 as it builds toward IPO

As much of the world was welcoming Santa Claus down their chimneys, news emerged this week that Snap, the company behind perennially popular social network Snapchat, had acquired augmented reality (AR) startup Cimagine Media for “up to” $40 million.

Founded in 2012, Cimagine works on computer vision and real-time image-processing technologies, which is entirely in line with Snap’s mission to be a “camera company” that pushes far beyond its ephemeral photo-sharing roots into myriad other areas, including augmented reality and physical cameras.

Indeed, Snapchat (the company) rebranded as Snap in September and launched its first piece of hardware — a pair of $130 connected glasses, called Spectacles.

Aadhaar Payment App: Here's how it works

Government of India to launch Unified Payment Interface (UPI) based Aadhaar Payment app tomorrow.

So there's good news! Soon, consumers will be able to get rid of their stacks of plastic money, the confusing sets of passwords, and the fear of their digital payment account passwords being stolen. Answering the essays of criticism to the digital mobile wallets, the government of India is now set to launch the Aadhaar Payment app, which as the name suggests, will facilitate Aadhaar-linked digital payments.

The Aadhaar Payment app, which is scheduled to be launched tomorrow, that is December 25, uses consumer's Aadhaar card details and their linked bank account details, along with their biometric scans to authenticate transactions. Which means, that users would no more need to download wallet apps, and can make transactions and purchases directly using their Aadhaar card number, with the help of Unified Payment Interface (UPI). Here is how that works.

So you must have been receiving constant notifications from your bank lately, to update your Aadhaar card details with them. So, that was for a reason. Those linked bank account details with Aadhaar is being planned by the government to digitize your payments. How this would work is, if things go as planned, your each bank account, would be linked with your Aadhaar details. Now, the Aadhaar Payment app has two sides to it, one is the merchants app, and the other is the consumer app. ALSO READ: Aadhaar Payment App to launch tomorrow

While the consumer app is just another form of mobile wallet, which is linked with your Aadhaar card in this case, that can be used to make quick online transactions. However, the primary part of the Aadhaar Payment app is the merchant app. And the interesting bit of the entire merchant version of the Aadhaar Payment app is that it does not require the consumer to install that app in their phone's to successfully make payments, like how you need it right now in case of mobile wallets like Paytm, Mobikwik, Freecharge and the likes.

Talking about the merchants app, in essence, all that the merchant would need for the Aadhaar Payment app to work is an Android smartphone, and a biometric scanner. Now, when a consumer makes purchase, they would just require to share their Aadhaar card detail, which would automatically list down their linked bank account, and choosing the favoured bank account will process the payment from that particular bank, which will further be authenticated using biometric scans (flashback to the multiple fingerprint and biometric scans that you gave for making your Aadhaar cards). ALSO READ: Now, you can make payments via Aadhaar Card and mobile number only

Also, in case you are wondering, in an event where a customer has two accounts in the same bank, when you link your accounts with Aadhaar, you would be asked to choose a primary account out of the two, so that whenever any Aadhaar-based transaction is done it will credit or debit from that chosen account by default.

The Aadhaar Payment app aims to eliminate the fee payments for service providers like card companies such as Mastercard or Visa, which has been a stumbling block in merchants switching to digital payments making it affordable to even merchants in remote villages, said people familiar with the development.
