As Share Investment Interest Rises, Platform Security Becomes a Priority

Amid a growing number of investors and rising public interest in share investment, security has become the primary factor to consider before selecting a share investment platform or application. Cyber attacks and threats in the digital world are relentless, can occur at any time, and can affect anyone. In response, Indonesia’s leading investment application, Stockbit, has introduced multi-layered security features that allow the public to invest with peace of mind. Stockbit has consistently enhanced its multi-layered security system to meet this need. The company has implemented a 3 Factor Authentication (3FA) system, which includes Face Recognition, Trusted Device, and Freeze Account. Stockbit’s Face Recognition technology provides an additional security layer to ensure that only the account owner can access and conduct transactions within their trading account. Users will receive a notification if an illegal sign-in occurs, similar to the security experience when using applications like Gmail or Apple ID. With the Trusted Device feature, Stockbit’s system automatically rejects any login attempt from an unrecognised device. Additionally, the Multiple Verification system ensures every important activity within the account undergoes an additional verification process, minimising the risk of misuse by irresponsible parties. Meanwhile, Freeze Account is a feature that allows investors to temporarily lock or freeze their account if unusual activity is detected or suspected. “The 3 Factor Authentication system is designed to provide maximum protection for user account access through three strict layers of verification. In addition, Stockbit also has a Cybersecurity team on standby 24/7,” explained William, Head of PR & Corporate Communication at Stockbit. William stated that besides prioritising security in accessing investment accounts, Stockbit continues to innovate by providing real-time analytical tools and data in Indonesia. This enables investors to monitor market movements quickly and make accurate, data-driven decisions. “The good news is that Stockbit is designed for various levels of investors, both experienced and beginners who wish to invest professionally, whether they trade daily or invest for the long term. Stockbit is designed for investors who need security, speed, accuracy, and depth of information in every decision-making process,” he added. Recently, Stockbit introduced the Stockbit AI Reports feature. This feature helps summarise company information disclosures into more concise, rapid, and sharp analytical points. Through AI Reports, users can understand important information more efficiently while gaining insights that assist in making faster and more directed investment decisions. “We have served and understood the needs of millions of investors in Indonesia. Investors invest smartly by not only focusing on ease of application use but also ensuring a strong and reliable security system is in place. We express our gratitude for the public’s trust in Stockbit thus far,” said William. As of the end of May 2026, data from the Indonesian Central Securities Depository (KSEI) showed the number of share investors in the capital market had reached 9.73 million, with nearly 80 per cent dominated by young investors under the age of 40. This figure has risen significantly compared to the end of 2023, which recorded 5.2 million investors, and the end of 2024, which recorded 6.3 million investors. “Once again, in addressing this positive trend, Stockbit is committed to being a share investment application that prioritises security, is reliable, and is credible through innovative features and fast execution times for every transaction,” William concluded.
