JAKARTA, KOMPAS – We need to look back and evaluate our cybersecurity governance in order to handle data breaches. The National Cyber and Encryption Agency (BSSN) has stated that reported cyberattacks in 2021 had received minimal follow-up by the relevant ministries and agencies.

From the beginning of this year to 13 Sept., the BSSN sent a total of 1,261 notifications to ministries and agencies regarding attempted breaches, but only 72 notifications, or 6 percent, received a response.
