Indonesian National Police Bolsters Cybersecurity with NPCore's ZombieZERO EDR Solution

NPCore, Inc. has deployed its advanced Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) solution, ZombieZERO, to the Indonesian National Police, marking a significant upgrade to the nation's cybersecurity infrastructure. The implementation comes in response to escalating cyber threats, including a devastating ransomware attack in June 2024 that impacted more than 200 public institutions across Indonesia.

The deployment addresses a critical gap in Indonesia's cyber defenses, where many organizations still rely on basic security measures like firewalls and free antivirus programs. The move is particularly significant given Indonesia's recent history of cyber vulnerabilities, highlighted by the June attack on Data Center 2 (PDNS2) that exposed widespread security weaknesses in public institutions.

Under newly elected President Prabowo Subianto's administration, Indonesia has prioritized cybersecurity as a national imperative. NPCore's ZombieZERO solution offers advanced features including AI-driven threat detection, automated response capabilities, and real-time monitoring - capabilities that go well beyond traditional antivirus software.

The company has also conducted comprehensive training sessions in Jakarta, ensuring that law enforcement personnel are equipped to utilize the solution effectively. This implementation builds on NPCore's regional experience, following their successful deployment of EDR solutions to Malaysian Police in 2016.

This development represents a crucial shift in Southeast Asian cybersecurity practices, potentially setting a precedent for other nations in the region to modernize their cyber defense infrastructure. As cyber threats continue to evolve and target critical infrastructure, the implementation of advanced EDR solutions like ZombieZERO could prove instrumental in protecting sensitive government data and operations across the region.
