Lintaarta gave a statement regarding the alleged corruption in the procurement of goods and services for the management of the Temporary National Data Center (PDNS) within the Ministry of Communication and Information (Kominfo) which has now changed its name to the Ministry of Communication and Digital Affairs (Komdigi).

In his statement, the Head of Corporate Communications of Lintaarta, Dahlya Maryana emphasized that Lintaarta respects all ongoing procedures and will contain cooperation in providing the information needed.

"As well as following the applicable procedures by upholding transparency and accountability," Dahlya said in a statement received by VOI on Monday, March 17.

He also emphasized that their cybersecurity system has strict global standards, so as to ensure optimal security protection against customer and enterprises data.

"Litasarta is fully committed to maintaining service integrity and customer trust," he said.

Previously, the Central Jakarta District Attorney (Kejari Jakpus) revealed that the alleged corruption of PDNS occurred in the period 2020 to 2024, resulting in state losses of Rp958 billion.

At that time, PDNS was under the responsibility of Kominfo whose project involved the private sector, in this case Lintaarta or PT Aplikanusa Lintasarta (PT AL) and Telkom.

This allegation of corruption is also believed by the Central Jakarta Kejari which was the cause of the ransomware attack which exposed the personal data of the Indonesian population in 2024.

Meanwhile, the Secretary General of the Ministry of Communication and Digigi Ismail has also emphasized that Komdigi will provide full support for the law enforcement process related to the PDNS project for the 2020-2024 period.

"We are ready to provide the information and data needed to ensure that the legal process runs smoothly," said Ismail on Friday, March 14.
