now uses "I check" software to scan the train ticket two-dimensional code, the result only shows the ticket number.
a day ago, the reporter learned from the railway department that the two-dimensional code information on the train ticket has been processed by the encryption technology. Only the railway special equipment system can be read, but the two-dimensional code can not get personal information through the mobile software, and the privacy of the passengers is further protected.
the two dimension code of the train ticket for the million soldiers was once worried about the real name system of the train ticket issued by the railway department, and many netizens reflected that the name and ID number hidden in the train ticket two-dimensional code pattern were able to be hidden by the two-dimensional code scanning software downloaded by the mobile phone. All the personal information is read. "What's the privacy of this, what if the bad people take the fraud?" some passengers have been worried that the security and confidentiality of the train ticket is too bad if it can easily get other people's privacy through some free software.
it is learnt that unlike the original train tickets, the name of the train ticket is marked with the name of the ticket holder and the number of the identity card. Among them, in order to protect personal privacy, the four numbers in the ID card number are replaced by asterisk. At the same time, there are two dimensional codes at the corner of the ticket. This is the two-dimensional code, once let passengers talk about color change, afraid of being exploited by bad guys.
, however, a few days ago, there was a message from the railway department that the current train ticket two-dimensional code has been encrypted, only through a special railway identification tool to read the information.
is this the case? On the 11 day, the reporter conducted interviews and verification.
now only a dedicated railway device can read "not heard of encryption, but I know only the railway specific identification tools can read the information." On the afternoon of 11, the person in charge of the JiNan Railway Station ticketing department told reporters that she had not heard of the two-dimensional code encryption of train tickets. However, in her opinion, the personal information on the train ticket can not be obtained by other software.
on the G40 train from Hangzhou to the west of Ji'nan, the passenger's personal information can be displayed when the train chief Yang Xiao routinely checks the passenger ticket and reads the railway special equipment. However, when the reporter used the Android system to download the "I check" and other software to scan, only the train ticket scanned words, as well as a string of number numbers, no personal name and ID card number and other information.
reporter learned from the railway related departments that, in the early period of the real name system, the information on the ticket can be read through the general two-dimensional code reading software because of the needs of the new and old software compatibility. However, the current train ticket two-dimensional code has adopted a special strong encryption technology, the personal information inside has been protected, and the ability of anti-counterfeiting has been improved. At present, software can only be read through railway special equipment, and it is generally difficult for the outside world to obtain information illegally.
, however, as the name of the passenger and the number of ID cards are still marked on the real name system, the railway department reminds us that the passengers should keep their tickets properly after using the tickets, and try not to throw them at random, so as to avoid any other trouble to themselves.
