As cybercrime continues to rise globally, particularly through hacking and data theft, BRI's Director of Digital and Information Technology, Arga M. Nugraha, emphasizes the bank's commitment to safeguarding user data and funds. With over 37.4 million active users, the BRImo super app has become a target for cybercriminals, prompting BRI to enhance its security measures.
BRImo employs advanced encryption and a robust backend security system, collaborating with reputable security researchers to ensure comprehensive protection. The bank operates a 24/7 Security Operation Center (SOC) to monitor threats and conducts regular audits with third-party partners.
To combat cyber threats effectively, BRI encourages users to adopt proactive security practices, such as not sharing personal information, using secure internet connections, and enabling additional security features within the app. Arga stresses that cybersecurity is an ongoing battle, requiring both institutional measures and user awareness to protect sensitive information.
