UNAIR NEWS<\/strong> \u2013 The recent exposure of a syndicate in Surabaya\u2013Sidoarjo that sold personal data for online gambling transactions involving billions of rupiah has once again raised alarms over Indonesia\u2019s cybersecurity. The case highlights not only data breaches but also the weak enforcement of the Personal Data Protection Law (PDP Law).<\/p>\n\n

Dr. Faizal Kurniawan, S.H., M.H., LL.M., a law lecturer at 51动漫<\/a>, said the main problem lies in the gap between legal provisions and on-the-ground practices. Although Article 20 of the PDP Law requires data controllers to protect information from misuse and illegal access, weak oversight continues to allow such crimes to thrive.<\/p>\n\n

\u201cThe law clearly guarantees every person the right to data protection. Yet sensitive information, including banking customers\u2019 records, is still being sold to fuel digital crimes such as online gambling,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n

Law enforcement still reactive<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n

Kurniawan noted that enforcement of personal data violations remains reactive. Authorities typically act only after major cases surface, rather than taking preventive measures. <\/p>\n\n

\u201cArticle 67 of the PDP Law provides for up to five years in prison and fines of up to Rp5 billion. But in practice\u2014like in the Cambridge Analytica case\u2014legal sanctions often come too late, after the social damage has already occurred,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n\n

He added that cases involving cross-border networks, such as online gambling syndicates, make prosecution even more difficult. Without strong international cooperation, such groups will continue exploiting legal loopholes.<\/p>\n\n

Strengthening digital safeguards<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n

On the security front, Kurniawan stressed the need to apply the principle of privacy by design outlined in Article 20 of the PDP Law. Banks and digital platforms, he said, must strengthen safeguards with encryption, multi-factor authentication, access controls, internal audits, and incident response plans.<\/p>\n\n

\u201cIn the event of a breach, data controllers are required to notify owners within 72 hours. This is the minimum step needed so victims can act quickly,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n

Role of individuals and public awareness<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n

Kurniawan added that individuals must also take responsibility for protecting their personal data. Avoiding phishing scams, withholding OTPs, and securing PINs are basic but essential steps.<\/p>\n\n

\u201cThe PDP Law allows people to request copies of their personal data. Citizens should not remain passive\u2014they have the right to demand transparency from institutions managing their data,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n

He stressed that public education must be strengthened so people understand their rights and responsibilities in the digital age.<\/p>\n\n

Long-term strategic steps<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n

As a long-term strategy, Kurniawan recommended accelerating the creation of an independent supervisory authority, setting minimum technical standards, and enhancing public literacy as well as forensic capacity.<\/p>\n\n

\u201cWithout strong regulation and public awareness, similar cases will keep repeating,\u201d he concluded.<\/p>\n\n
