CoordinatingMinister for Political, Legal, and Security Affairs, Hadi Tjahjanto, affirmed that the government would strengthen and improve security capabilities at the National Data Center (PDN).
The minister explained that security arrangements were stepped up to prevent PDN from becoming the target of cyberattacks, as was experienced by the Temporary National Data Center (PDNS) 2.
“We carry out improvement at PDN to have multiple backup capabilities and layered backup with good security. This is still progressing,” the minister noted in a press statement on Friday.
Apart from anticipating hacker attacks, efforts to strengthen PDN are also carried out to support the government’s performance in serving the community, Tjahjanto remarked.
The minister highlightedthat the government had also improved the data security system when PDNS 2 was hacked some time ago.
Tjahjanto explained that improvement in the security system is reflected in the re-operation of public services at several agencies.
“As of July 1, the service has been running normally. Community services can be accessed by the people amid our efforts to improve our capabilities,” he remarked.
