Jakarta. Muhammad Qodari, the Deputy Chief of the Presidential Staff Office (KSP), assured that KSP's data was not hacked by cybercriminals, following concerns raised about a potential breach.

In a message to the Jakarta Globe on Saturday, Qodari said, "We have conducted a thorough examination, and so far, there has been no hacking of the main KSP system."

He emphasized that the data held by KSP is currently secure.

This reassurance comes after reports emerged on social media alleging that KSP data had been compromised. The account @stealthemole_int on platform X claimed early Saturday that more than 3,000 pieces of government data and information from the official KSP website, ksp.go.id, had been leaked.

"A hacker on the dark web claims to have leaked over 3,000 records of government staff information from the KSP," the account stated.

According to the post, the compromised data amounts to 1.3 gigabytes and includes an SQL database.

Cyber attacks on government agencies have become increasingly frequent, prompting the establishment of a fourth branch of the Indonesian military, the Cyber Force, alongside the Army, Navy, and Air Force.

In September, a contract teacher from Banyuwangi, identified as Barik Abdul Ghofur, was arrested for hacking into the National Civil Service Agency (BKN) website and selling the stolen data on the dark web, reportedly earning $8,000 (approximately Rp 121 million).

On June 20, a breach at the Temporary National Data Center (PDNS) 2 in Surabaya disrupted essential government services, including immigration and school admissions. On September 18, a hacker known as Bjorka claimed to have hacked the personal data of 6 million taxpayers, including President Jokowi and other high-ranking officials, and offered it for sale on the dark web for $10,000.
