In the post, which includes screenshots of the dark site, it also highlighted an offer to sell this compromised data for 1000 US dollars or around Rp. 16.4 million.

Responding to this issue, the Head of the National Cyber and Crypto Agency (BSSN) Hinsa Siburian has coordinated with the police, and confirmed that the leaked data is old data.

"So of course we cross-check, we confirm with the Police. Is this really your data? They say there is data, indeed old data. That is their provisional answer," said Hinsa on Monday, June 24 at the Kominfo office.

Despite the issue of the leak, Hinsa ensured that all POLRI Inafis services and systems were running well to date.

"And we have confirmed this with the Police. That it is their old data that is traded on the dark web. My father is very respectful, that's roughly what I can say," he concluded.
