JAKARTA - Server of the TNI Strategic Intelligence Agency (Bais) has been temporarily disabled. This was done for investigation purposes after the hack of BAIS data by hacker MoonzHaxor.

Head of the TNI Information Center (Kapuspen TNI) Major General TNI Nugraha Gumilar also confirmed that the hacked data was old information that had been released this year.

"The hacked data is old data and will be released in 2024. Currently, the server has been deactivated for further investigation," said the TNI Kapuspen as quoted by ANTARA, Thursday, June 27.

The @FalconFeds.io account active on social media timeline X routinely monitors cyber activity, including from illegal sites (dark web) announcing hacking by MoonzHaxor hackers against Bais system on Monday that they claimed to have mastered a number of data belonging to Bais TNI.

Hackers also provide examples of (sample) data they control, and promise complete data to those who want to pay in dark data buying and selling forums on the dark web of BreachForum.

The price MoonzHaxor offers in the forum is US$1,000 for a database of 2,000 users measuring 773 kilobita (kb), and US$7,000 for classified data measuring 33.7 gigabits.

MoonzHaxor also offered to show a number of data he hacked from Bais' database, namely classified documents in 2020'2022.

The perpetrator of the same hack last week also announced he succeeded in hacking the Indonesian Automatic Finger Indentification System (INAFIS) system of the Indonesian National Police. The data claimed to have been hacked from the INAFIS system includes fingerprints, email addresses, and SpringBoot applications with several configurations.

The data was sold by MoonzHaxor for US$1,000 (equivalent to Rp. 16.3 million).

Head of the National Cyber and Crypto Agency (BSSN) Lt. Gen. TNI Retired. Hinsa Siburian explained that the data claimed to have been hacked by MoonzHaxor were old data.

"We have confirmed this with the police, that it is their old data that are traded on the dark web," he said during a press conference in Jakarta, Monday.

He explained that the National Police system is currently not experiencing problems and is still running well.

"We assure you that their system is running well," he said.

He also confirmed that the alleged INAFIS data hacking was not related to the cyber attack incident against the Temporary National Data Center (PDNS) 2.
