The Indonesian Cyber and National Encryption Agency (BSSN) has once again achieved an unqualified opinion (Wajar Tanpa Pengecualian - WTP) on its 2025 Financial Report, signifying a clean bill of financial health. This marks a continued commitment to transparency and accountability in its fiscal management.
BSSN has followed up on all recommendations given by the BPK completely, making BSSN an example of a responsive and responsible government institution.
Beyond the WTP opinion, the Board of Commissioners (BPK) noted that BSSN has comprehensively addressed all previous audit recommendations. The agency was also recognized as one of the quickest government bodies to submit its financial reports to the BPK, underscoring its efficiency and dedication to robust governance.
Nyoman Adhi Suryadnyana, a member of the BPK, commended BSSN's achievements, stating that the agency serves as an example of a responsive and responsible government institution. He highlighted that BSSN's performance contributes to the improvement of Indonesia's Global Cybersecurity Index (GCI) for 2025.
This positive achievement should be a foundation for continuously improving accountability, transparency, and the quality of state financial management for the greater benefit of the community and the state.
Despite the positive outcomes, the BPK's audit did identify areas for improvement. These include the arrangement and optimal utilization of fixed assets, refinement of intangible asset management, and addressing discrepancies in volume and technical specifications for certain capital expenditure packages, which resulted in overpayments. The BPK recommended a thorough asset inventory and the repayment of excess funds to the state treasury.
Audit not only assesses past compliance but also guides the realization of a better future. Therefore, we hope all BPK recommendations are consistently followed up.
