: The bulk of Indonesian government data affected by a recent ransomware cyberattack was not backed up, officials said, in an incident that has exposed the lack of preparations for such an attack in Southeast Asia’s biggest economy.

Hinsa Siburian, an official who chairs Indonesia’s cyber security agency known by its acronym BSSN, said 98% of the government data stored in one of the two compromised data centres had not been backed up. Budi Arie Setiadi, Indonesia’s communications minister, said the ministry had back-up capacity at the data centres, but it was optional for government agencies to use the service.
