Komdigi Examines Fore Data Leak as Draft Regulation for PDP Supervisory Body Reaches the President
The Communications and Digital Affairs Ministry confirmed it is examining a reported breach affecting around 5.7 million accounts, while the draft presidential regulation establishing a dedicated personal data protection authority has been submitted to the President.
Indonesia's Ministry of Communication and Digital Affairs has confirmed that PT Fore Kopi Indonesia Tbk reported a suspected personal data protection failure on 28 October 2026. The company's initial investigation indicated that approximately 5.7 million customer accounts were exposed to unauthorized access. The ministry said it is analyzing and examining the incident, and administrative sanctions will be determined once the examination is complete. The reported figure stems from the company's own initial investigation and has not yet been independently verified by the regulator.
In the same statement, ministry official Muchtarul Huda said the draft presidential regulation establishing a dedicated personal data protection supervisory authority is final and has been submitted to the President through the Coordinating Ministry and the State Secretariat. The ministry is preparing a transitional task force for the handover.
The development signals that enforcement of the Personal Data Protection Law is moving from legislation to supervision, which will affect all electronic system operators, including telecommunications providers.
