"In the country, there are efforts for improvement, for example through the formation of CSIRT (Computer Security Incident Response Team). The CSIRT coordinates a lot with the BSSN when a hack occurs," he added.

An example of a weak cybersecurity management system was in the case of the Ministry of Health's eHAC, where the Ministry of Health's IT team did not respond to reports of data leaks twice.

Only after a report was submitted to the BSSN, within two days, the eHAC system was taken down. This should have been done in a matter of hours.

He hoped that the Personal Data Protection Law (UU PDP) could provide early warning to state and private institutions.

"If from the beginning they do not treat personal data properly, when there is a leak due to hacking, they should be sued for compensation of tens of billions of rupiah," he said. (boy/mcr20/jpnn)
