JAKARTA — Indonesia is still trying to retrieve data lost in a cyberattack last month that affected 282 agency systems, including those for airport immigration and scholarships, with the damage amplified because much of the data was not backed up.
A large-scale outage occurred at a government data center in East Java around June 20 following the cyberattack, which was carried out by ransomware group LockBit. The government refused to pay the $8 million demanded by the group to unlock the data.
