INDONESIA'S CYBER SECURITY AND RESILIENCE BILL: PROGRESS AND SETBACKS
When President Prabowo Subianto's administration sent a Presidential Letter (Surpres No. R-07) to the House of Representatives on the Cyber Security and Resilience Bill (RUU KKS), formally confirmed in the DPR's 16th Plenary Session on 12 March 2026, it marked the opening of a legislative debate that will shape how Indonesia regulates cybersecurity for the foreseeable future. The bill has been designated a Prolegnas priority for 2026. Deliberation is now underway in earnest. There is a genuine gap in Indonesia's legal architecture that the RUU KKS is trying to fill. The Electronic Information and Transactions Law (UU ITE) was built around individual conduct in digital spaces: content, transactions, defamation. The Criminal Code addresses crimes that happen to use digital tools. Neither was designed to protect critical information infrastructure as such, and the June 2024 ransomware attack on the National Data Centre, which knocked out immigration, education, and other services across more than 200 government agencies, made that gap impossible to ignore.Source: https://www.lab45.id/detail/486/indonesias-cyber-security-and-resilience-bill-progress-setbacks-and-what-remains-unresolve (ICE GIACARTA)
