The Head of the Criminal Investigation Unit of the National Police, Komjen Wahyu Widada, said that handling the National Data Center (PDN) hacking case was not an easy matter.

Ransomware is called by the police as the mastermind behind the attacks or hacks against PDN.

"In the law enforcement process, it doesn't have to be urgent, everything goes through an in-depth process, ransomware is not an easy thing to handle," Wahyu told reporters, Monday, July 15.

In fact, Wahyu explained that from several of his colleagues, this hacking issue took years to solve it.

"Some time ago, yesterday I also met with friends from Australia it took years to figure out how to solve this problem," he said.

Even so, the National Police will continue to evaluate every development of handling the case. So, it is hoped that it can be resolved soon

"But we will continue to evaluate and also to review all of this, hopefully we can finish it as soon as possible," said Wahyu.
