The Indonesian and British governments have established cooperation in cybersecurity as a joint effort to safeguard the digital space and strengthen the foundations of national digitalization.
"Cybersecurity is the foundation of our digital sovereignty and economic stability," said Deputy Minister of Communication and Digital Affairs Nezar Patria in a statement.
He conveyed this when meeting with the Deputy British Ambassador to Indonesia Matthew Downing at the Ministry of Communication and Information Office, Central .
Collaboration with partner countries with greater expertise and experience in the digital sector is considered a strategic step to ensure Indonesia's readiness to face the risks of cyber threats in the digital space.
"The UK's experience is invaluable. We hope the partnership between the two countries can enhance national digital security and resilience," Nezar said.
According to him, reflecting on the cyberattack on the Temporary National Data Center (PDNS) in 2024, every digital infrastructure needs to have high cybersecurity standards.
