It is only valid for 30 seconds and then it automatically gets\u00a0<strong>expire<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif\">\n\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif\">Due to its validity, it is called\u00a0<strong>TOTP<\/strong>, which is called Time-Based OTP.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif\">\n\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif\">TOTP is\u00a0<strong>8 digits<\/strong>\u00a0long numeric string.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif\">\n\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif\">It is generated\u00a0<strong>separately<\/strong>\u00a0for every Aadhaar card holder in for 30 Seconds.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif\">\n\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif\">With time-based OTP, the TOTP validation server and token generation app like\u00a0<strong>mAadhaar<\/strong>\u00a0use their respective system times to generate OTPs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif\">\n\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif\">The TOTP algorithm assumes that the system times are synchronized.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif\">\n\n<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif\">Why to use TOTP?<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif\">\n\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif\"><strong>#1.<\/strong>\u00a0The biggest problem of\u00a0<strong>SMS<\/strong>-based\u00a0<strong>OTP<\/strong>\u00a0is that we have to rely on our mobile network for that.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif\">\n\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif\"><strong>#2.<\/strong>\u00a0Due to Aadhaar TOTP, we do not have to face the\u00a0<strong>problems<\/strong>\u00a0of SMS-based OTP.TOTPs avoid a number of shortcomings that are associated with traditional SMS based OTP.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif\">\n\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif\"><strong>#3.\u00a0<\/strong>Sometimes, even if we have a\u00a0<strong>network<\/strong>\u00a0in Mobile, our Registered Mobile Number does not come with an OTP.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif\">\n\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino,
