Leyun Cloud Asia – Amid Indonesia’s efforts to accelerate digital transformation, robust cybersecurity has become increasingly urgent. Digital platforms used by the government and the public face evolving cyber threats, demanding solutions to protect sensitive data and ensure smooth operations.
One success story in meeting this challenge is the strategic partnership between GovTech Procurement and Cloudflare, which has significantly changed Indonesia’s digital infrastructure and security.
Security Challenges in the Digital Era
GovTech Procurement, the agency responsible for managing and procuring information technology for the public sector in Indonesia, faces major challenges in ensuring the security and performance of government digital platforms. With more than 600 regional websites to protect, many of which still use outdated technology, these challenges have become increasingly complex. Moreover, government websites are often prime targets for cyberattacks, including DDoS attacks, malware, and unauthorized access attempts.
Andreas Cendranata, Head of Infrastructure & Security at GovTech Procurement, explained that maintaining the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of government and public data is a top priority. “With the increasing number of cyber threats, we need to ensure that our IT infrastructure is strong and capable of withstanding sophisticated attacks,” he said.
Cloudflare’s Solution
In addressing these challenges, GovTech Procurement partnered with Cloudflare, a global company renowned for its internet security and performance solutions. Cloudflare offers services to protect government websites and digital platforms from cyber threats.
One of the main solutions implemented was Cloudflare’s Web Application Firewall (WAF). This WAF protects against cyberattacks by filtering suspicious traffic before it reaches the web application. Additionally, Cloudflare provides SSL for SaaS, enabling GovTech Procurement to manage SSL certificates on a large scale, ensuring that each site in its portfolio is protected with strong encryption.
Cloudflare also provides secure, dedicated outbound IP addresses to prevent IP spoofing attempts by attackers trying to access the internal network. With this layer of protection, only trusted traffic is allowed to access the backend, reducing the risk of attacks from seemingly legitimate sources.
Impressive Results
Since partnering with Cloudflare, GovTech Procurement has seen a significant improvement in the security and performance of its digital platforms. DDoS attacks that previously often disrupted operations are now easily mitigated by Cloudflare’s system. Furthermore, the once-complex SSL certificate management process has become more efficient and easier to handle.
“Cloudflare has transformed how we secure our websites,” said Cendranata. “With the protection they provide, we can maintain the security and performance of our websites at the highest standard.”
In addition to its advanced technology, the support provided by Cloudflare’s team has been highly appreciated by GovTech Procurement. Cloudflare’s quick response and effective solutions in handling security incidents have further strengthened this partnership.
