Since the Covid-19 pandemic, people have spent more time at home. This has led to increased reliance on the internet, a situation exploited by various parties to commit virtual crimes. The National Cyber and Crypto Agency (BSSN) recorded a surge in cyberattacks during the pandemic.

From January to July 2019, there were at least 39.3 million cyberattacks in Indonesia. The number jumped almost fivefold the following year, with BSSN reporting 189.9 million attacks by July of that year.

Common attacks included those targeting websites, information gathering, and trojan attacks. Trojans are attacks that secretly install themselves and steal user data.
