        "content": "<p>Amid increasing public digital activity, cases of personal data\nmisuse and dissemination remain a concern for various parties. Sensitive\ndata such as identity cards (KTP), family cards (KK), driving licences\n(SIM), telephone numbers, and banking information are frequently\ntargeted for misuse that can harm their owners. Risks ranging from fraud\nand identity theft to the misuse of financial service access must be\nguarded against. Therefore, awareness of maintaining the confidentiality\nof personal data is an important step every individual must take. A\nnumber of information security practitioners have reminded the public\nnot to carelessly share personal documents through social media,\nmessaging applications, or digital platforms with unclear security\nmeasures. Documents such as KTP, KK, and SIM should only be given to\nparties with official and trusted interests. In addition, the public is\nadvised to obscure some important information when sending document\ncopies, use strong passwords, and activate two-step verification on\ntheir digital accounts. Awareness of safeguarding personal data is also\nconsidered part of efforts to build better digital security. The public\nneeds to get into the habit of rechecking every link, form, or data\nrequest received online. If there is an indication of misuse or a\nsuspicious data request, the public is urged not to provide any\ninformation and to immediately verify with the relevant parties through\nofficial channels. Supporting this, PNM President Director Kindaris\nrevealed that personal data protection is a shared responsibility that\nneeds to be built through the awareness and discipline of every\nindividual. Personal data, he explained, is a highly valuable asset.\nMaintaining its confidentiality not only protects oneself but also one\u2019s\nfamily and surroundings from various risks of misuse. \u2018In the current\ndigital era, caution in sharing information is the main key to creating\na safe and trustworthy digital space,\u2019 he said in a statement on\nWednesday (10\/6\/2026). Through increased digital literacy and concern\nfor data security, the public is expected to be increasingly able to\nprotect their identity and personal rights amid increasingly rapid\ntechnological developments.<\/p>",
