Head of Statistics Division of the Blora Communication and Information Service ( Dinkominfo ) Sri Widayaningsih revealed that the BPPKAD website hacking case requires the district government to cooperate with the National Cyber and Crypto Agency ( BSSN ) if the website is attacked.
Currently, it is still in the analysis process to find out the cause of the easy hacking.
"We followed up by inviting the BSSN team to conduct a forensic audit," he said.
This effort was made because the party realized that the human resources it had were not qualified enough.
However, the party is still trying to always upgrade with training.
"Even so, it is not as capable as BSSN people," he stressed.
He admitted that the website security budget was budgeted at around Rp 50 million. This amount was deemed insufficient to maintain security.
