JAKARTA - The Ministry of Communication and Digital Affairs targets to start operating the National Data Center (PDN) which is located in Cikarang at the end of March this year. But apparently, the schedule missed the initial target.
Minister of Communication and Digital Affairs (Menkomdigi) Meutya Hafid said that there is a possibility that the PDN's operational schedule has the potential to be delayed, because it coincides with the holy month of Ramadan.
"Yes, we previously wanted March (GDP operational), this is because of the holy month of Ramadan, hopefully, we don't miss March. April is the longest," said Meutya at the Jakarta Komdigi office on Tuesday, March 18.
Previously, Komdigi conveyed that the operation of the National Data Center (PDN) would run after the National Cyber and Crypto Agency (BSSN) ensured that the data center infrastructure was sterile and safe.
The Deputy Minister of Communication and Trade, Nezar Patria, has also said that his party is conducting a cybersecurity study together with BSSN with the aim of ensuring that PDN is clean and ready to be used.

"It's just finishing, yes, we just have to try to re-examine all the requirements, before the PDN will be operated," said Nezar on Tuesday, February 23 yesterday.
