JAKARTA - The State Intelligence Agency (BIN) has secured its documents. This at the same time denies claims by hackers or Bjorka who say they have thousands of letters addressed to President Joko Widodo (Jokowi), including from his institution.

"Hoaks itu. Dokumen BIN aman dikendalikan," kata Juru BIN Wawan Hari Purwanto dalam keterangan tertulisnya, Sabtu, 10 September.

He said each document was specifically secured to prevent leakage. There is layered encryption and disguised documents.

"Especially if it's a document to the President, it's always done through crypto (sandy) and crypto every time it's changed," said Wawan.

"So the BIN documents to the President are not leaked," he continued.

Previously, a number of correspondence documents and transactions belonging to President Jokowi were reportedly hacked by Bjorka on Friday, September 9.

This news then became a hot topic of discussion on Twitter after @darktracer_int revealed that 79 thousand data claimed belonged to the president of the Republic of Indonesia were uploaded by Bjorka to the deep web.

From the screenshots shared, the amount of data measuring 40 MB includes correspondence transactions sent to the President as well as letters sent by the State Intelligence Agency (BIN).

"Fills about letter transactions and documents sent to the President include a collection of letters sent by the State Intelligence Agency," the site said.

Not only that, but Bjorka challenged the Indonesian government through his Telegram group. He said that the next target was the President of Indonesia.

"Further data leaks will come from the President of Indonesia," wrote Bjorka in the Telegram group, as is widely circulated.
