Jakarta, CNBC Indonesia - Indonesia’s digital transformation is progressing rapidly alongside the massive development of technology, particularly in recent years. This transformation positions connectivity as the main backbone in supporting economic activities, public services, and social interactions among the population.

The impact of this digital transformation progress can be seen in the expansion of networks, adoption of cloud-based services, and integration of digital systems across various strategic sectors. As a result, this expansion is able to drive operational efficiency, accelerate innovation, and strengthen the contribution of the digital economy to national growth.

In this context, the digital space is no longer merely a supporting medium but has evolved into crucial infrastructure that determines the nation’s competitiveness in the global era. However, behind the rapid digital transformation, it also brings security consequences with the increasing cyber threats.

High dependence on digital systems will open vulnerabilities to various risks, from data leaks, attacks on critical infrastructure, to disinformation that can disrupt social stability. These threats not only impact institutions or industry players but also have broad implications for economic stability and public trust in the digital ecosystem.

Therefore, robust digital space resilience is needed as an urgent national strategic agenda. In addition, synergy is required between strengthening digital infrastructure, enhancing human resource capacity, and utilising cutting-edge technologies such as artificial intelligence to build a predictive and responsive defence system.

To discuss in more depth the challenges of cyber security amid digital transformation, CNBC Indonesia presents the Tech & Telco Forum with the theme “Building a Safer Digital Nation: From Connectivity to Cyber Resilience”. This event is organised on Wednesday, 6 May 2025 at Menara Bank Mega, Jakarta.

This forum is expected to encourage the exchange of insights, strengthen collaboration, and formulate concrete steps in ensuring that Indonesia’s digital connectivity growth goes hand in hand with the establishment of strong cyber resilience, to support the creation of a national digital ecosystem that is safe, trustworthy, and globally competitive.

This event is supported by DataOn, Sangfor Technologies Indonesia, AMD, Uptime Institute, Ingram Micro Indonesia & HPE Indonesia, and PT Telkom Indonesia (Persero) Tbk.
