UNAIR NEWS – ������ has signed a cooperation agreement (PKS) with the Electronic Certification Center (BSrE) of the National Cyber and Encryption Agency(BSSN). The signing session was held at UNAIR MERR-C Campus Management Office on Thursday, October 13, 2022.

Head of BSrE BSSN Jonathan Gerhard Tarigan said that digital transformation in Indonesia has developed massively. Indonesia will be left behind if this development is not supported with given space and assistance.

“That’s because there are so many global players.��Global electronic certification providers almost control 90% of the market capital.��Both private and government,” he said.

Jonathan said that in 2012 there was ITE Law concerning the Implementation of Electronic Systems and Transactions. However, the implementation was less than optimal due to an unsupportive environment.

“It’s just that there must be an element of coercion, sir. Yesterday, the Minister of Finance and we mentioned that the coercive element of our country was Covid-19,” he said.

According to Jonathan, Covid-19 has changed the way of thinking of Indonesians. “Because the Covid-19 pandemic talks about our habits to do things that are no longer significant or irrelevant to the habits of our nation.”

Jonathan also explained that in the millennial generation, there is a trend of using online food messaging applications.��“What do parents want? Just use Go-Send if they need it.��But yes, that’s the current trend,” he explained.

According to Jonathan, documents are one of the means of transmitting Covid-19. He said that one of the regents had contracted Covid-19 after one month of being sworn in.

“Because the documents he signed at that time were indeed a transmission medium for Covid-19,” he stated.

Jonathan said BSrE BSSN has collaborated with approximately 490 agencies, from the central government, regional governments, and universities. He hoped his party would not stop there by optimizing this digitalization era.

“Sometimes we are too afraid to change because there is no coercive element.��And in this Post Pandemic, if Rhenald Kasali said, we want to be left behind or participate in this disruption.��We want to take advantage of the momentum of disruption, we hope that we can transform together,” he said.

Closing the meeting, Jonathan hoped that the transformation at UNAIR would run smoothly and achieve the goals of BSrE BSSN and UNAIR.

“And we can focus on our core businesses.��UNAIR in education services, and us in information security.��Synergy is built towards 2024 Golden Indonesia,” he concluded.
