Abstract

The rapid development of information technology has had a significant impact on various aspects of life, including the protection of personal data. In Indonesia, issues concerning personal data protection have attracted increasing attention amid the rising number of data breach incidents and the misuse of personal information. This study aims to explore Indonesia's existing legal framework for personal data protection, identify the challenges encountered, and propose solutions to enhance its protection. The findings indicate that although Indonesia has enacted regulations governing personal data, their implementation and enforcement continue to face various obstacles. Strengthening public awareness, technological infrastructure, and cooperation among relevant stakeholders is therefore essential to ensure more effective personal data protection.
