"These electronic land certificates are (designed) for the public's convenience, so they will not be lost or stolen," he stated in Lampung on Tuesday.
He also emphasized that the government will strive to protect the public's valuable documents, including electronic land certificates, from cyberattacks or theft.
"Therefore, we urge the public to remain confident. Why are our ID cards electronic now, our bank accounts electronic, our electricity bills electronic, everything electronic? The bottom line is that we are worried about hackers breaking into them. God willing, the government will protect all of that," he remarked.
To secure electronic land certificates, the Ministry of Agrarian Affairs and Spatial Planning backs up the data into four layers and stores the physical documents securely.
"If you are still unsure, the data is backed up in four layers. In addition to electronic evidence, physical evidence is also stored in the office. Furthermore, this electronic data is impossible to steal unless the person concerned carelessly shares their password with others," he remarked.
He also stated that the transition to electronic land services is currently progressing, with 28 percent of the migration already completed.
"The land certificate migration program from physical to electronic has reached 28 percent completion this year. Everything remains on track," he revealed.
