KPU Work with IT Team to Improve Security 



TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - The National Election Commission (KPU) has made some changes in order to protect its system from virtual attack like the ones in 2004 and 2009, particularly by embracing internet security institutions. "This year's information system is more secure," said Partono Samino, an expert in KPU's IT Technical Team.
KPU has worked with the Indonesia Security Incident Response Team on Internet Infrastructure (ID-SIRTI), a team formed by the Ministry of Telecommunication an Informatics, Cellular Operator, Network Provider, and the police. In addition, KPU has applied manual recapitulation system. Instead of counting the vote using a tabulation application.
Back in 2004, KPU's official website was hacked by Dani Firmansyah, who claimed that he hacked the site just to find out how secure KPU's system is. Again, in 2009, KPU's website was hacked and cannot be accessed.
