Government Regulation No. 71 of 2019 (PP PSTE), Pasal 24(3) · Read the law's page
- On a system failure or disruption with a serious impact resulting from another party's act against your Electronic System, such as an attack or intrusion, secure the affected Electronic Information and/or Electronic Document.
- Report the incident immediately, at the first opportunity, to law enforcement officials and the relevant Ministry or Agency; the Government Regulation states no numeric clock for this report, only immediacy.
- A violation can draw the same Article 100 administrative sanctions (written warning, an administrative fine of an amount this Government Regulation does not itself fix, temporary suspension, access termination, or removal from the operator registry) as this jurisdiction's security-system duty.
- This binds the same Electronic System Operator as this jurisdiction's Article 23/24(1)-(2) security-system duty; it adds an incident-reporting duty rather than reaching a different party.

- Protect your users and the wider public from harm caused by the Electronic System you operate, and provide, train, and equip personnel tasked with and responsible for securing the system's facilities and infrastructure.
- Where you operate an Electronic Agent, an automated device that carries out an action on Electronic Information for a user without that user's direct intervention, such as an automated transaction or e-commerce system, additionally run a standard operating procedure meeting six security-control principles for user data and Electronic Transactions: confidentiality, integrity, availability, authenticity, authorization, and non-repudiation, and test a transacting user's identity and authorization before completing the transaction.
- A violation of Articles 23, 24, 31, 32, 39(2), or 40 can draw an administrative sanction from the Minister, a written warning, an administrative fine of an amount this Government Regulation does not itself fix, temporary suspension, access termination, or removal from the Electronic System Operator registry; the Article 100 sanction list does not name Article 3 itself.
- This binds every Electronic System Operator under Indonesian law, whether a government body (Penyelenggara Sistem Elektronik Lingkup Publik) or a private business (Penyelenggara Sistem Elektronik Lingkup Privat), with no sector or size gate.
