Estonia to Help Guide Indonesia National Cybersecurity Update
Dina Manafe | April 06, 2013

 
 
Indonesia is seeking to learn more about cybersecurity from Estonia, a country which has seen rapid growth in information technology after becoming a victim of a systematic cyberattack in 2007.

Dian Triansyah Djani, the Indonesian Foreign Ministry's director general for American and European affairs, inaugurated the Jakarta Honorary Consulate for the Republic of Estonia on Thursday evening.

The Jakarta Honorary Counsel for the Republic of Estonia, Adriana Sri Lestari, said the consulate will enable the two countries to strengthen ties, particularly in the fields of education, information technology, infrastructure and trade.

Adriana noted the rapid development Estonia has shown in information technology after the former Soviet state was targeted by a series of cyberattacks from a pro-Kremlin group.

The attack left the country paralyzed, swamping websites belonging to Estonian government offices, banks, organizations and media. But since then, the country has thoroughly revamped its IT network. The country is now rated as being one of the most prepared against cyberattacks, according to a recent report by security vendor McAfee.

"Internet connection is now available throughout the country and Estonia has a high ... penetration rate," Adriana said.

Marko Mihkelson, the delegation of the Republic of Estonia counsel, said the country is eager to share its successes in updating its cyber security. "We hope that soon there will be a meeting to cooperate on education and training in this field," he said.

"I have met with the Estonian ambassador for Indonesia to stage additional meetings to determine what topics need to be discussed and what focuses must be prioritized."

Indonesia has also been the target of cyberattacks. The Ministry for Communication and Information Technology has recorded a total of 36.6 million attacks against Indonesian websites.
