Adiline Macriga G    

Resumen

At present, the social life of everyone has become associated with the online social networks. Also, every online business is linked to users through websites. Users are allowed to create separate personal or official accounts in order to access these websites. The rapid growth of these websites despite being advantageous, it also causes some serious issues. Problems such as fake profiles, online impersonation have become prone these days. The most important issue is that, the websites maintains separate servers with storage area for all the users. Creation of number of accounts by a single user leads to occupying extra storage space in those servers which causes wastage of storage resources. The fake profiles and online impersonation issues are becoming threat to several people like celebrities, businessmen and even to innocent general public. In order to restrict these problems, an idea is suggested to prove the uniqueness of users in these websites and restrict them to create limited number of accounts permitted by the website holders. Like Aadhar in India, most of the countries has unique id and has become mandate. This id?s has an advantage of giving uniqueness to every individual. The user?s Aadhar card/unique card can be scanned to generate a unique id. Using this unique id, the individuality of users in websites can be identified and a unique username and password can be given to each user. Whenever a user tries to create an account in a registered website, the user will be asked to prove uniqueness and hence can be restricted from creating multiple accounts more than the number of accounts allowed by the website.
