BPK Urges BSSN to Maintain Governance Improvements After All Audit Recommendations Completed
The National Cyber and Crypto Agency (BSSN) has once again received an Unqualified Opinion (WTP) for its 2025 Financial Report. During the audit, the Supreme Audit Agency (BPK) also noted that BSSN had followed up on all recommendations from previous examinations. BSSN is also recorded as one of the ministries/agencies that was fastest in submitting its financial reports to the BPK. This achievement is considered to reflect BSSN’s commitment to improving governance and accountability in state financial management.
BPK Member I Nyoman Adhi Suryadnyana stated that BSSN’s achievement is not only reflected in the WTP opinion it obtained again but also in the completion of all audit recommendations. The Audit Result Report (LHP) for BSSN’s 2025 Financial Report was handed over by Nyoman to BSSN Chief Nugroho Sulistyo Budi.
Nyoman said that BSSN has followed up on all recommendations provided by BPK thoroughly, making BSSN an example of a responsive and responsible government institution. He added that BSSN also contributed to the improvement of Indonesia’s Global Cybersecurity Index (GCI) in 2025. He emphasised that these various achievements should serve as a foundation to continue improving accountability, transparency, and the quality of state financial management for the greater benefit of society and the country.
In its audit of BSSN’s 2025 Financial Report, BPK issued an Unqualified Opinion. This opinion indicates that BSSN’s financial report has been presented fairly in all material respects in accordance with Government Accounting Standards (SAP). Despite obtaining the WTP opinion, BPK’s audit still found several areas requiring improvement, including the arrangement and optimisation of fixed asset utilisation, refinement of intangible asset management, as well as volume shortfalls and technical specification discrepancies in several goods and capital expenditure packages that resulted in overpayments.
In response to these findings, BPK recommended a comprehensive asset inventory, optimisation of software utilisation, and the deposit of excess payments into the state treasury in accordance with regulations. Beyond the audit results, BPK encouraged BSSN to continue developing its governance through the application of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) principles and the development of Government 5.0. Nyoman stressed that the WTP opinion is not the ultimate goal, but rather one outcome in the process of improving governance and strengthening the internal control system. He expressed hope that all BPK recommendations would be followed up consistently.
