PERTANGGUNGJAWABAN HUKUM LEMBAGA NEGARA TERHADAP KEBOCORAN DATA

Abstract

This study discusses the legal accountability of state institutions regarding personal data breaches in the digital era. Digital transformation has helped the administrative efficiency of state institutions. However, the frequent incidents of data leaks by government institutions, such as the BPJS Kesehatan case, represent a national crisis. Using a normative juridical method, this study finds that Law Number 27 of 2022 on Personal Data Protection regulates the obligations of state institutions to safeguard data security. Although the 1945 Constitution does not explicitly regulate personal data protection, Article 28G paragraph (1) guarantees the right to privacy. The implementation of data protection principles and legal regulations is essential to prevent similar violations and to uphold rights and data security.
