Police Personnel Data Allegedly Leaked, Distributed for Free

jpnn.com, JAKARTA - Cyber security expert Pratama Persadha said the data of National Police personnel was allegedly leaked and distributed for free on online forums.

He said it was known from an upload by Twitter account @son1x777, which had also defaced the website of the National Cyber and Crypto Agency (BSSN).

According to Pratama, the data was uploaded on Wednesday (17/11) afternoon by the same account as the alleged BSSN website hacker.

In the upload, he said, a link was also provided to download samples, which allegedly contained police personnel databases.

According to him, two databases were provided with the same size, namely 10.27 MB, with the first file named polrileak.txt and the second polri.sql.

"The file contains a lot of important personal data of police personnel, for example name, NRP, rank, place and date of birth, working unit, position, address, religion, blood type, ethnicity, email, and even phone number. This is clearly dangerous," Pratama said in a written statement, Thursday (11/18).

The chairman of the Communication and Information System Security Research Center (CISSReC) added that there were also data columns for rehabilitation decision, rehabilitation trial verdict, type of violation, rehabilitation information, punishment finished, and so on.

He said the data was possibly leaked by police personnel.
