The Speaker of the Indonesian People's Consultative Assembly (MPR RI), Bambang Soesatyo (Bamsoet), who also serves as Head of the Law Enforcement, Defense, and Security Agency of the Indonesian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (KADIN), revealed that there were 1.6 billion anomalous traffic events or cyberattacks in Indonesia during 2021.

Of that number, Bamsoet mentioned that hundreds to thousands of potential cyberattacks were directed at the Ring-1 of the Presidential Palace, including against President Joko Widodo.

He revealed this during a meeting with the Head of the National Cyber and Crypto Agency (BSSN), Lieutenant General TNI (Ret.) Hinsa Siburian, at the BSSN office in Jakarta on Wednesday, April 13, 2022.

Bamsoet stated that cyberattacks could cause a country's telecommunications and internet networks to completely shut down, disrupt digital banking, and render military and civilian aviation radar unusable.

"Even more frightening, weapons systems such as aircraft and submarines could be controlled from abroad to carry out attacks, such as dropping bombs, without being controllable by our side," said Bamsoet, as reported by Antara, Wednesday, April 13, 2022.

"Therefore, BSSN needs to be strengthened. Indonesia needs to immediately have a National Cybersecurity and Resilience Law," he continued.

Further investigation reveals that the increasing cyber threats have not been matched by an increase in national cybersecurity funding.

In the 2022 State Budget (APBN), this year's BSSN budget allocation is only Rp554.6 billion.

This budget is divided into Rp152.8 billion for the national cybersecurity and cryptography security and resilience program, and Rp401.8 billion for the management support program.

The total BSSN budget for 2022 is also recorded as being approximately 60% lower than the 2021 outlook, which reached Rp1.39 trillion.
