B. STAGES OF ELECTRONIC SYSTEM DEVELOPMENT
One form of methodology that BPR or BPRS can use in developing Electronic Systems is the System Development Life Cycle (SDLC), which is divided into initiation and planning, requirement definition, design, programming, testing, implementation, post-implementation review, maintenance, and disposal stages, detailed as follows:
in accordance with the minimum documentation standards of BPR or BPRS.
BPR and BPRS must complete implementation instructions for user work units and work units or employees responsible for IT management, as well as prepare implementation and training plans. Trials that can be conducted by the working team, IT service providers, or Core Banking Application providers are:
a. Unit Testing
Unit testing is a trial of the functionality of each unit or sub-module of the Electronic System, including Core Banking Applications, that has been completed. Unit testing is conducted before system integration testing so that if anything happens, the configuration/code of that software unit can be changed without worrying about impacting other systems.
b. System Integration Testing
System integration testing is the testing of the overall functionality of the Electronic System, including Core Banking Applications, after being integrated into a complete whole. This testing is conducted to avoid difficulties in tracing if errors or bugs occur in the integration.
c. Stress Testing
Stress testing is a test of the resilience of the Electronic System or Core Banking Application in handling processes or transactions on a large scale/quantity.
Stress Testing is conducted after the working team, IT service provider, or Core Banking Application provider has provided a minutes of system integration testing results to the end user.
d. User Acceptance Test
User Acceptance Test (UAT) is the final trial process conducted by the working team, IT service provider, or Core Banking Application provider with the end user on the Electronic System, including Core Banking Applications, that has been completed, in order to test whether the overall system functionality meets user needs at the user requirements definition stage before deciding that implementation can be carried out. UAT can only be conducted after the working team, IT service provider, or Core Banking Application provider has provided minutes of the system integration testing results. At this stage, the internal audit work unit or executive officials responsible for carrying out the internal audit function may participate in testing while maintaining independence to ensure the availability, adequacy, and effectiveness of existing controls in the system. If the UAT results show that the Electronic System, including Core Banking Applications, has met user needs and BPR or BPRS security standards, a UAT minutes must be created that is approved by the end user.
Implementation Stage
The working team needs to carry out main activities, namely notification of the implementation schedule, training for users, and installation of the Electronic System, including Core Banking Applications, that have been approved into the operational environment. Other important matters that must be considered at least include:
a. application integrity examination in the form of adequate controls over the conversion from source code to object code to be implemented; b. data migration from the old Electronic System to the new Electronic System;
c. examination of the accuracy and security of migration results data in the new system;
d. the possibility of implementing a parallel run between the old and new systems, until it is certain that the data in the new system is accurate and reliable; e. data integrity, where BPR and BPRS must ensure the accuracy and reliability of the Database and data integrity; f. during implementation, BPR and BPRS avoid data patching because it can significantly affect data integrity in the Database on the operational server, so it must be avoided; and g. arrangement of source code storage and Database from the old system.
Post-Implementation Review Stage
The work unit or employee responsible for IT management must conduct a post-implementation review of the Electronic System to ascertain that all activities in the project plan have been carried out and project objectives have been achieved. The work unit or employee responsible for IT management must analyze the effectiveness of project management activities by comparing, among others, the plan and actual costs, benefits obtained, and project schedule accuracy. The results of the analysis must be documented and reported to the Board of Directors.
Operation Stage
In the operation of the Electronic System, there are procedures for supervising the implementation of operations, data security, data originality, data inputting, and Database management.
Maintenance Stage
Maintenance must be carried out on hardware, software, and documentation to ensure the operational effectiveness of the Electronic System. BPR and BPRS must establish maintenance procedures that are appropriate to the characteristics and risks of each Electronic System project.
Disposal Stage
Disposal is the final process of system development, including data, by deleting or destroying the system, including data. Every Electronic System resulting from development and procurement that is not used in operational activities and based on BPR or BPRS considerations is believed to be unnecessary and will no longer be maintained, will enter the final stage in the SDLC, namely the disposal/termination stage. This is done to ensure that the Electronic System used in operational activities is the most accurate and up-to-date Electronic System, and to prevent misuse by unauthorized parties.
C. PROCUREMENT OF ELECTRONIC SYSTEMS
In the process of procuring Electronic Systems, to ensure that the procured Electronic System meets functional needs, security criteria, and reliability, BPR and BPRS need to pay attention to the following:
Procurement Standards
Procurement standards must be applied to ensure that the procured Electronic System meets functional needs, security criteria, and reliability. In the procurement of Electronic Systems, BPR and BPRS must pay attention to at least:
a. a written proposal of the Electronic System procurement plan by the working team to obtain Board of Directors approval, which at least contains an analysis of user needs regarding the expected goals and benefits, cost-benefit analysis, and the benefits of the Electronic System to be procured to support business strategy; b. the suitability of IT service providers, written agreements, licenses, and products obtained with the IT management needs of BPR or BPRS;
c. the suitability of the offer specifications submitted by IT service providers with the IT management need specifications of BPR or BPRS;
d. comparison of offers submitted by one IT service provider with other IT service providers; and e. the financial condition of IT service providers and the commitment of IT service providers to service.
User Needs Analysis
Analysis of user needs is something that needs to be done before conducting an evaluation of the Electronic System to be procured. In this analysis, reasons for procuring the Electronic System, shortcomings of the currently used system, user needs and data processing, reports needed by users, the relationship of the Electronic System to be procured with other systems, and resources needed to install and maintain the Electronic System must be established. The Electronic System needs to be reviewed to ensure the availability of security controls and audit trails, such as access to data files, authorization processes, password controls, data access records, reports on security breach attempts, and the ability of utility programs to change data.
Cost-Benefit Analysis
In conducting cost-benefit analysis, the working team needs to compare each alternative IT service provider regarding the costs required, both direct and indirect costs. The capabilities and costs of each alternative need to be analyzed and compared, including among others the offered costs with specifications according to needs. The comparison as referred to above can be conducted by the working team by collecting references from other users or general information as information sources in evaluating the Electronic System to be procured, the computer systems used, changes or modifications made after implementation, duration of use, quality of after-sales support provided, performance on the same Electronic System, and other important information.
D. MAINTENANCE OF ELECTRONIC SYSTEMS
Maintenance activities must be carried out by BPR and BPRS, covering routine services and modifications to hardware, software, and related information to ensure the effectiveness of IT management for BPR or BPRS. For this purpose, Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) on Change Management are needed to ensure that changes occurring during the maintenance stage do not disrupt BPR and BPRS IT operational activities or degrade system performance/security. Change management includes overall modifications, minor modifications, and emergency changes (emergency modifications).
Change Management
The Board of Directors must establish detailed SOPs for change control containing procedures for authorization, testing, documentation, implementation, and socialization of such technology modifications. Modifications include hardware and software. Hardware modifications are needed to replace old, non-functional equipment, or to improve performance or storage capacity. Software modifications are needed to meet user needs, fix software problems, and security weaknesses in IT management, or to implement new technology. BPR and BPRS must coordinate Electronic System modifications through a centralized change management process due to the interconnection between Electronic Systems and operational systems. Based on their level of importance, modifications are classified into:
a. major modification, which is a significant functional change in the Electronic System, among others caused by the conversion or development of a new system due to the merger, amalgamation, or change of ownership of BPR or BPRS. Major modifications must be implemented following a structured process as done in the Electronic System development stages; b. minor modification, which is the implementation of changes in the Electronic System to improve performance, fix problems, or enhance security. Minor modification standards must include change requests, re-review, and approval procedures, and require BPR or BPRS to plan, test, and document all changes before implementation. BPR and BPRS must review all proposed modifications to ensure the modification's suitability with the existing system and ensure that only approved modifications are implemented. BPR and BPRS must establish Electronic System approval standards that include procedures to verify test results, check modified code, and ensure source code compatibility. After the Electronic System modification is completed, all source code must be secured in the library, both the latest version and the version before modification;
c. incidental modification (emergency modification), which is needed to fix problems in the Electronic System or restore operational processes quickly. Although such modifications must be completed quickly, they must still be implemented and controlled well. Emergency modifications must also be tested before implementation. However, if testing cannot be conducted thoroughly on emergency modifications before implementation, there must be procedures to properly backup files. This is important so that BPR and BPRS can cancel the modification if it causes disruption to the Electronic System.
Patch Management
IT service providers develop and release patches to fix problems in software, improve performance, and enhance security. If there are new patches, BPR and BPRS must evaluate the technical impact of installing such patches on business and security. BPR and BPRS must have procedures to identify the availability of patches from trusted sources. Patch management standards must include procedures for identification, evaluation, approval, testing, installation, and documentation of patches. BPR and BPRS must review all security settings and configuration parameters after the use of new patches to ensure that settings meet approved policies and procedures.
Library
To ensure the availability of applications used, BPR and BPRS must have a Library to store programs. Additionally, storage of information and/or documents in the form of data and applications related to servers originating from development and/or testing is necessary. Further explanation regarding libraries is contained in the chapter regulating IT operations.
Conversion
In the event of a merger, amalgamation, or change of ownership of BPR or BPRS requiring the integration of Electronic Systems, a conversion process needs to be carried out. In this process, major modifications are made to the existing Electronic System and new Electronic System development is carried out if necessary. In this conversion process, a structured process such as the Electronic System development stages must still be applied. Given the complexity of Electronic Systems in each BPR and BPRS involved in mergers, amalgamations, or changes of ownership, a comprehensive analysis of the impact of conversion on BPR or BPRS operational activities, particularly transaction processing, is required. To ensure the conversion process runs effectively, BPR and BPRS need to anticipate increased demand for balancing, reconciliation, exception handling, user and customer support (help desk), problem resolution (troubleshooting), network connectivity, and administrative system support.
Documentation Maintenance
Documentation standards must be able to identify main documents and detailed documents that have been approved and are in the desired format. Such documentation must contain all changes that have occurred in the system, applications, and configurations according to the standards determined.
E. WRITTEN AGREEMENTS FOR THE DEVELOPMENT AND PROCUREMENT OF ELECTRONIC SYSTEMS INCLUDING CORE BANKING APPLICATIONS Written agreements in carrying out the development and procurement of Electronic Systems, including Core Banking Applications, must at least include:
BPRS. In cases where part of the software development must be subcontracted, written approval from the BPR or BPRS is required. In granting such subcontract approval, BPR and BPRS must consider the complexity and availability of experts in the software development, as well as the data security of the BPR or BPRS. Furthermore, BPR and BPRS must ensure there is a clause stating that the Information Technology service provider or Core Banking Application provider is responsible for the software, even if it is designed or developed by another Information Technology service provider or Core Banking Application provider.
Development and performance specifications standards for Electronic Systems must at least consist of:
a. identification and functional specifications in which the operational Electronic System will function, and identification of milestones for the functionality that must be met by the Information Technology service provider or Core Banking Application provider during the development and procurement process; and b. regulations for modifying specifications and performance standards during the development and procurement process;
Software copyright (license) information must at least cover:

Provisions as referred to in numbers 1 through 28 apply mutatis mutandis to Information Technology service providers or Core Banking Application providers that receive subcontracts.
CHAPTER III
INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY OPERATIONS
This chapter discusses the activities and controls of Information Technology operations as a guideline for BPR and BPRS in implementing Information Technology management standards. Regulations regarding adequate Information Technology operations are crucial to ensure that information in computer systems is complete, accurate, current, integrity is maintained, and reliable, as well as free from errors, fraud, manipulation, misuse, and data destruction.
In managing Information Technology, BPR and BPRS must ensure that Information Technology operations are stable, secure, and efficient overall, whether managed independently or in cooperation with Information Technology service providers. BPR and BPRS must establish policies and procedures for Information Technology operations that guarantee the continuity of Information Technology operations and ensure their implementation in user work units, operator work units, or Information Technology service providers. Information Technology operations are not only concentrated in Data Centers but also in other activities related to the use of integrated applications, diverse communication media, internet connections, and various computer platforms. Similarly, processing can be conducted in various distant but interconnected locations, whether online, real-time, or offline.
A. INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY OPERATIONAL POLICIES AND PROCEDURES BPR and BPRS are required to have policies and procedures covering every aspect of Information Technology operations in accordance with the POJK on IT Management (SPTI). The depth and scope of these policies and procedures are adjusted to the operational complexity of the BPR and BPRS. Policies and procedures must be documented in writing and used in the implementation of Information Technology operations. Policies and procedures contain details of tasks, responsibilities, delegation of authority, and implementation guidelines for user work units and Information Technology operator work units. Furthermore, BPR and BPRS must establish requirements to be met regarding hardware and software used in the production, testing, and development environments in the management of Information Technology for BPR and BPRS.
Data Management Policies and Procedures
BPR and BPRS must implement data management policies and procedures for Information Technology operations that cover:
a) Data Center Operational Policies and Procedures Policies and procedures applied in Data Center operational activities include routine and non-routine tasks. Activities related to Data Center operations must at least include:
(1) Task Scheduling
BPR and BPRS must have and execute schedules for all tasks to be performed in the operational Information Technology Data Center effectively and securely; (2) Task Operation Granting command line access to Information Technology operators must be limited according to authority in the determined task operation functions; (3) Report/Output Distribution Information produced by the system (output), in softcopy or hardcopy form, may be sensitive or confidential information. BPR and BPRS must have distribution procedures for reports/outputs, including determining the information to be generated (general or confidential), distributing outputs (hardcopy or softcopy), and destroying outputs that are no longer needed. These procedures are necessary to prevent the exposure of confidential information, reduce costs due to unnecessary outputs, and ensure output security; (4) backup processes (on-site and off-site), restore, download, and upload for data/Databases; and/or (5) activation of audit trails. b) Database Management Policies and Procedures Failure to manage and secure Databases can result in changes, destruction, or disclosure of confidential information, whether by users intentionally or unintentionally, or by unauthorized parties. Disclosure of confidential information by unauthorized parties can result in reputational, operational risks, and financial losses. BPR and BPRS must categorize data types in Databases into general information or confidential information categories. Databases storing confidential information require stricter controls compared to Databases storing general information. Therefore, BPR and BPRS must have a Database Administrator (DBA) function responsible for managing the BPR or BPRS Database. Policies and procedures that BPR and BPRS must possess regarding Databases include access, maintenance, issue handling, and Database administration. For BPR and BPRS that have Data Warehouses (DWH), BPR and BPRS must apply the same procedures as Database management policies and procedures. c) Library Management Policies and Procedures Libraries are collections of software or data with specific functions, stored and ready for use. In managing libraries, BPR and BPRS must conduct inventories and store all software and data stored in various media, including tapes and discs, including copies of all policies and procedures such as application execution instructions in the Data Center. BPR and BPRS must have policies and procedures regarding library management, including data access security procedures, handling of data storage media (for data/Databases and audit trails, retention periods, and testing of storage media, as well as access logs for data storage media). In creating policies, procedures, and standards for libraries, BPR and BPRS must consider the adequacy of storage/backup and disposal procedures for media. BPR and BPRS must always update data and application backups to ensure the backups can be used to restore systems,
applications, and data in the event of disasters or other disruptions.
Hardware and Software Planning, Management, Maintenance, and Disposal Policies and Procedures
BPR and BPRS must have policies and procedures for Information Technology operations related to hardware and software, including:
a) Capacity Planning Policies and Procedures
BPR and BPRS must have capacity planning policies and procedures to ensure that the hardware and software used by BPR or BPRS align with operational business needs and anticipate the development of BPR or BPRS businesses. Without good capacity planning, BPR and BPRS face risks of IT resource shortages or waste. Capacity planning is prepared periodically and always updated to accommodate existing changes. b) Hardware and Software Configuration Management Policies and Procedures In managing hardware and software configurations, BPR and BPRS must establish procedures regarding:
(1) hardware and software installation processes; (2) parameter settings (hardening) of hardware and software; and (3) inventory and updating of information regarding hardware, software, network devices, storage media, and other supporting devices present in the Data Center.

Information required in storage media inventories includes type and capacity, storage location (on-site and off-site), type and classification of stored data, source system, as well as frequency and retention period of backups. (e) Data Center Supporting Devices BPR and BPRS must inventory Data Center supporting devices, including Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) and power control, fire detection and extinguishing systems, air conditioning, and temperature and humidity sensors. c) Hardware and Software Maintenance Policies and Procedures (1) Data Center Equipment and Facility Maintenance Periodic preventive maintenance of IT equipment is necessary to minimize equipment operational failures and to detect potential problems early. Therefore, BPR and BPRS need to have maintenance contracts with Information Technology service providers to ensure the availability of maintenance support from the provider. All maintenance should be based on established schedules, documented in a log, and evaluated periodically. (2) Physical Security and Data Center Environmental Controls (a) Data Center Physical Access Control Physical access to the Data Center must be limited and well-controlled. Data Center doors must always be locked; if necessary, they can be equipped with access cards and/or biometric devices. The Data Center room should not be labeled or have signage so that people can easily identify it. BPR and BPRS must have a logbook to record visitors entering the Data Center. (b) Data Center Environmental Controls In implementing Data Center environmental controls, the work unit or employees responsible for Information Technology management must perform at least:
i. supervise and monitor the Data Center environment, including: power sources, fire, water, temperature, and humidity. Applicable environmental controls include: use of UPS, raised floors, temperature and humidity regulation (AC, thermometers, and hygrometers), smoke/fire/heat detectors, fire suppression systems, CCTV (Closed Circuit Television) cameras, and pest control.
ii. ensure the availability of sufficient, stable power sources, and alternative sources to anticipate the failure of the main power source. To anticipate power outages, BPR and BPRS must ensure that voltage regulators, UPS, and generators work properly when needed. BPR and BPRS should preferably use automatic switching methods in case of failure in one power source to maintain power supply according to equipment needs.
iii. ensure the Data Center has fire and smoke detectors and water drainage pipes. Furthermore, BPR and BPRS must provide adequate fire suppression systems, whether automatic or manual. Fire suppression agents and systems used must consider safety for equipment and Data Center personnel.
iv. use raised floors to secure cabling systems and avoid grounding effects in the Data Center.
(c) Hardware and Software Performance
Monitoring of hardware and software must be conducted at least daily to ensure all devices operate properly, for example, servers remain on, Database capacity and server utilities do not exceed limits, and supporting facilities function well. d) Hardware and Software Disposal Policies and Procedures (Disposal) Disposal includes removing software, destroying hardware, and data that are no longer used or whose retention period has expired. Old source code versions that are no longer used must be stored with clear indications of the date, time, and other information when replaced by the latest source code version. Disposal activities must at least include:
Change Management Policies and Procedures
Change Management is a procedure regulating the addition, replacement, or removal of objects in the production environment. These objects can include data, applications, menus, computer devices, network devices, and processes. BPR and BPRS must have Change Management policies and procedures that at least cover requests, analysis, and approval of changes, as well as change installation, including the transfer of hardware and software from the testing environment to the operational environment. Change Management must consider the following:
a) Change Control
Interdependencies among Electronic Systems used in various work units require integrated Information Technology management. Therefore, all changes must go through a coordinated Change Management oversight function involving representatives from business work units, work units or employees responsible for Information Technology management, information security, and internal audit. Change installation procedures must consider operational continuity in the production environment, oversight, and regulations for securing Information Technology management. Minimum standards regulated must include risks, testing, authorization and approval, implementation time, validation after installation, and recovery. b) Patch Management In Change Management, BPR and BPRS must have complete documentation of patch installations performed. Furthermore, BPR and BPRS must ensure that they use the latest software version that is most appropriate. BPR and BPRS must also have current information regarding product fixes, security issues, patches or upgrades, or other issues relevant to the software version used. c) Data Migration Data migration occurs if there are major changes to the BPR or BPRS Electronic Systems, or if data from several different Electronic Systems is merged. In the event of data migration, BPR and BPRS must have policies and procedures regarding data migration handling. Stages to be undergone in data migration start from strategic planning, project management, Change Management, testing, contingency plans, backups, management of Information Technology service providers or Core Banking Application providers (vendors), and post-implementation review.
Incident/Problem Handling Policies and Procedures
Incident/problem handling procedures must cover hardware, operating systems, application systems, network devices, and security equipment.
BPR and BPRS must maintain necessary facilities to handle issues, including:
a) Help Desk
BPR and BPRS must have a help desk function so that user issues can be addressed immediately.
Matters to be considered in the help desk function are:
Information Exchange Control Policies and Procedures
Sending information online or via storage media must be adequately managed by BPR and BPRS to prevent risks related to information security. BPR and BPRS must have procedures for managing physical and logical information transmission at least:
a. requests and provision of information by internal and external parties; and b. sending information through various media, such as: hardcopy, discs, email, post, and internet.
For large-scale BPR and BPRS with high IT complexity, BPR and BPRS must consider separating WAN (Wide Area Network) and LAN (Local Area Network) segments with security devices (such as firewalls) that limit access and data traffic in and out.
Quality Assurance Function Policies and Procedures
BPR and BPRS should consider having a quality assurance function to understand the BPR or BPRS business processes. The quality assurance function assesses the quality of hardware and software according to established standards. Every system creation and change must go through quality assurance function approval before being transferred (migrated) to the production environment in accordance with Electronic System development guidelines and change management.
Third-Party Service Provider Relationship Management Policies and Procedures
If BPR or BPRS Information Technology management is conducted by an Information Technology service provider, BPR and BPRS must monitor and evaluate the reliability of the provider periodically, including performance, provider reputation, and continuity of service provision. Therefore, BPR and BPRS must have a third-party relationship management function responsible for monitoring Information Technology service provider services using procedures that at least include service monitoring, issue reporting, and documentation related to Information Technology service provider services.
CHAPTER IV
COMMUNICATION NETWORK
Communication networks are a very important aspect for the financial industry. This can be seen from the development of diverse financial institution products and activities through communication networks. Even currently, banking services have become borderless with the development of communication networks. BPRs and BPRSs can provide online and real-time electronic banking services such as Automated Teller Machines (ATM), Internet Banking, and Mobile Banking, whether owned by the BPR or BPRS itself or by Information Technology service providers.
Communication networks are also aspects that need integrity assurance through the implementation of good network management policies and procedures, maximizing network performance, designing networks resistant to disruptions, clearly defining network services, and implementing necessary security measures, as these communication networks are used to transmit information in the form of data, voice, images, and video, which are vulnerable to disruption and misuse.
A. COMMUNICATION NETWORK POLICIES AND PROCEDURES BPRs and BPRSs must have policies and procedures as guidelines in implementing communication network technology to ensure that operational continuity and communication network security remain maintained. Therefore, BPRs and BPRSs must establish baseline/standards used internally for each platform (for example, based on protocols or operating systems) and applied to all communication networks used by the BPR or BPRS.
Policies and procedures that must be established must at least cover the following:
B. COMMUNICATION NETWORK DESIGN
Communication networks must be designed to be efficient yet dynamic to anticipate future development. At this stage, several aspects are considered, namely:
C. COMMUNICATION NETWORK ACCESS CONTROL
Access control in communication networks must be considered because communication networks are the main gateway into the BPR and BPRS information systems. If not managed well, information security is threatened. In implementing access control, there are several aspects that BPRs and BPRSs must consider, namely:
D. CONTROL, SECURITY, AND MAINTENANCE OF COMMUNICATION NETWORK OPERATIONS In carrying out control, security, and maintenance of communication network operations, several aspects must be considered, including:

H. COMMUNICATION NETWORK DOCUMENTATION
In communication network management activities, BPRs and BPRSs must document the following:
CHAPTER V
INFORMATION SECURITY
Information is important for BPRs and BPRSs, whether information related to customers, finances, reports, or other information. Leaks, damage, inaccuracy, unavailability, or other disruptions to such information can cause detrimental impacts, both financial and non-financial, for BPRs or BPRSs, customers, other banks, and the national banking system.
Information must be protected or secured by all personnel in BPRs or BPRSs.
Information security heavily depends on security regarding all aspects and components of related Information Technology, such as software, hardware, networks, supporting equipment (for example, power resources, air conditioning, etc.), and human resources (including qualifications and skills).
A. INFORMATION SECURITY PRINCIPLES
Information security must at least consider the following principles:
In addition to the above, BPRs and BPRSs need to consider the implementation of international standards in the field of information security, including International Organization for Standardization (ISO)/International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC), Control Objective For Information and Related Technology (COBIT), Information Technology Infrastructure Library (IT-IL), and national standards such as Indonesian National Standards (SNI), considering the complexity of the business, including diversity in transaction/product/service types and office networks, as well as supporting technology used.
B. INFORMATION SECURITY POLICY
The Board of Directors of BPRs and BPRSs must establish policies and have high commitment to information security. These policies must be communicated periodically to all BPR or BPRS employees and relevant external parties. Furthermore, periodic evaluations and evaluations upon significant changes must be conducted. Information security policies must at least cover:
C. INFORMATION SECURITY PROCEDURES
i) BPR and BPRS using file sharing must establish access restrictions at minimum through the use of passwords and access authorization settings.
j) BPR and BPRS must pay attention to security hardening processes for hardware and software, such as parameter settings or patches.
Matters to be considered in the operational security of Information Technology include:
a) information and software must have tested backup and recovery procedures according to their level of importance;
b) BPR and BPRS must anticipate and implement adequate security controls over vulnerabilities in operating systems, application systems, Databases, and networks, including threats from unauthorized parties such as viruses, trojan horses, worms, spyware, Denial-of-Service (DoS), war driving, spoofing, and logic bombs;
c) BPR and BPRS must have policies and procedures for updating anti-virus software and patches and ensure their implementation;
d) BPR and BPRS must create procedures covering the identification of existing patches, testing, and installation if necessary;
e) BPR and BPRS must maintain records of the software versions used and routinely monitor information regarding product updates (enhancements), security issues, patches or upgrades, or other issues relevant to the software versions used;
f) BPR and BPRS must establish the use of encryption using specific cryptographic techniques to secure the transmission of sensitive information, especially through networks outside the BPR or BPRS communication network, in accordance with the latest technological developments. The use of such cryptographic techniques aims to maintain and ensure confidentiality, integrity, authenticity, and non-repudiation. Techniques that may be considered include encryption, hash functions, and digital signatures (using Public Key Infrastructure);
g) BPR and BPRS must apply identification and authentication methods according to the importance level of the application, for example, using one-factor authentication for "ordinary" applications and two-factor authentication for "critical" applications. Examples of identification and authentication methods include login ID and password, token devices, or biometrics (e.g., fingerprint, retina scan, face/iris/hand/palm analysis, signature recognition, voice recognition); and
h) BPR and BPRS must provide and review audit trails/logs at the network, system, and application levels, and establish the type of log (e.g., administrator log, user log, system log), information to be included in the log, storage duration or log capacity, considering applicable regulations for issue tracing purposes.
Matters to be considered by BPR and BPRS in handling incidents in information security include:
a) incidents that occur must be identified, reported, followed up, documented, and evaluated to ensure proper handling and to prevent the recurrence of incidents;
b) BPR and BPRS must establish incident handling procedures that regulate, among others:
c) BPR and BPRS should consider forming a special team to handle security incidents by TRIPI (Information Security Incident Response Team) according to the business scale and complexity of the Information Technology management of the BPR or BPRS;
d) BPR or BPRS employees, honorary employees, and IT service provider employees are requested to report whenever they find indications or potential weaknesses in the Electronic System in accordance with the security incident reporting policy and procedures. Weaknesses that need to be reported include, for example, viruses from incoming emails.
Backup and restore testing are necessary to ensure data availability for the operational continuity of BPR or BPRS, both in routine operations and in the event of data damage or failure, so that greater losses can be avoided. In this regard, the aforementioned backup and restore testing include data, files, applications, operating systems, and other documents, which must be stored in a separate location/building. The above are some examples of controls and technologies that can be used to assist information security.
Data retention is conducted to maintain the integrity of backed-up data for a certain period. The data retention period is adjusted according to regulations governing corporate documents.
Information security must also be applied in other aspects such as the development and procurement of Electronic Systems, including Core Banking Applications, data communication networks, disaster recovery plans, and cooperation activities with IT service providers or Core Banking Application providers.
CHAPTER VI
DISASTER RECOVERY PLAN
Banking activities cannot be avoided from disturbances/damages caused by nature or humans, such as earthquakes, bombs, fires, floods, power failures, technical errors, human negligence, labor strikes, riots, and so on. The resulting damage not only affects the technological capability of a BPR or BPRS but also impacts the operational business activities of the BPR or BPRS, particularly services to customers. If not handled specifically, besides facing operational risks, BPR and BPRS may also face reputational risks, leading to a decline in customer trust in the BPR or BPRS.
To minimize these risks, BPR and BPRS are expected to have Business Continuity Management (BCM), which is an integrated and comprehensive management process to ensure that BPR or BPRS operational activities continue to function even when facing disturbances/disasters, in order to protect the interests of stakeholders. Effective BCM needs to be supported by several things, one of which is the preparation of a Business Continuity Plan (BCP).
The mandatory BCP procedure components owned by BPR and BPRS are the Disaster Recovery Plan (DRP) in accordance with POJK SPTI. The Disaster Recovery Plan is a document containing plans and steps to restore access to data, hardware, and software required, so that BPR and BPRS can carry out critical business operational activities after a disturbance and/or disaster. The Disaster Recovery Plan emphasizes technological aspects, focusing on data recovery/restoration plans and the functioning of critical Information Technology application systems and infrastructure.
A. DISASTER RECOVERY PLAN POLICY AND PROCEDURES
The Board of Directors of BPR and BPRS must establish policies and have a high commitment to disaster recovery plans that include:
Analysis of the possibility of risks arising from factors such as:
a) fire factors; b) natural factors, such as floods and earthquakes; c) technical factors, such as hardware/software damage, power outages, or data transmission disturbances; and/or d) human factors, such as sabotage.
The types of procedures in the Disaster Recovery Plan include:
a) emergency response procedures (immediate steps) to control the system during a disturbance/disaster, reduce the impact of losses, and determine the disaster status; b) system recovery procedures that allow BPR or BPRS operational activities to return to normal conditions; and/or c) data synchronization procedures are used to ensure consistency between the operational machine data and backup data, as well as to ensure all business processing data during the recovery period has entered the system.
Each Disaster Recovery Plan procedure must include at least the following components:
a) Personnel
The Disaster Recovery Plan must clearly state the composition, authority, and responsibilities of each personnel involved in Information Technology management and have adequate communication flows.
b) Technology and Core Applications
The procedures prepared must consider the technology components owned by BPR or BPRS, such as hardware, software, and BPR or BPRS communication facilities.
Furthermore, BPR and BPRS must have complete procedures and documentation to recover main applications related to Core Banking Applications or other BPR or BPRS operations.
Additionally, matters related to data need attention, such as system documentation and backup data.
c) Disaster Recovery Center (DRC)
For BPR and BPRS that have a Disaster Recovery Center, BPR and BPRS must ensure the availability of the Disaster Recovery Center as a backup Data Center that can be operated when the Data Center cannot operate (in disaster conditions). According to the selected strategy alternative, the BPR or BPRS Disaster Recovery Center can be managed independently or by an IT service provider, considering the following:
(1) The Disaster Recovery Center should be located in a separate location from the Data Center location, considering risk characteristics based on:
(a) risk analysis related to the Disaster Recovery Center location (whether the area is prone to earthquakes, lightning, floods, riots, unrest, and other disturbances) and connected to communication infrastructure and electricity different from the Data Center, as well as other facilities necessary for the system to continue operating; and (b) the geographical scope of a disturbance/disaster and its impact on the city or region where the Disaster Recovery Center location is located. (2) The Disaster Recovery Center must have electricity supply and telecommunications facilities that ensure the operation of the Disaster Recovery Center; (3) systems in the Disaster Recovery Center must be compatible with systems used in the Data Center and must be adjusted if changes occur in the Data Center; (4) it is a restricted area; and (5) it considers travel time to ensure the recovery process.
d) Backup Documentation, Systems, and Data
BPR and BPRS must ensure the availability of effective backups of important business information, software, and related system documentation, and users for each critical business function process. Matters to be considered in documentation, system, and data backups include:
e) Communication Facilities
BPR and BPRS must ensure the availability of alternative communication routes in the BPR or BPRS operational area that can be used internally or with external parties during disturbances/disasters.
Determination of Clear Responsibilities for Related Parties in Disaster Recovery Plan Management.
a) Responsibilities of the Board of Directors of BPR and BPRS include at least:
b) Responsibilities of the work unit or employees responsible for Information Technology management include at least:
B. DOCUMENTATION OF STRATEGIES AND PROCEDURES FOR RECOVERY
BPR and BPRS must document strategies and procedures for the recovery process, including:
C. DISASTER RECOVERY PLAN TESTING
Disaster Recovery Plan testing is necessary to ensure that the Disaster Recovery Plan can operate well during disturbances/disasters. BPR and BPRS conduct testing of the Disaster Recovery Plan at least 1 (one) time in 3 (three) years. Testing is conducted on all critical systems/applications and critical infrastructure and involves IT users.
Critical systems/applications and infrastructure refer to systems/applications and infrastructure that can disrupt bank operational services, thereby potentially causing reputational risk.
BPR and BPRS review the Disaster Recovery Plan periodically at least 1 (one) time in 3 (three) years, considering the results of testing, including in cases where BPR and BPRS make significant changes to systems, applications, or Information Technology infrastructure, such as changes to Core Banking Applications.
If BPR and BPRS use IT service providers in operational activities, the testing conducted must also involve the respective service providers.
BPR and BPRS must clearly determine the functions, systems, and processes to be tested. Matters to be tested include the effectiveness of:
a) procedures for determining the level of disturbance and disaster; b) Disaster Recovery Center facilities provided by IT service providers, whether used for BPR and BPRS themselves or shared with other BPR and BPRS; c) Information Technology operational recovery procedures; and d) Data Center recovery.
The testing conducted must be documented orderly and evaluated to ensure the effectiveness and success of the testing. In case weaknesses in the Disaster Recovery Plan are found during testing, the Disaster Recovery Plan needs to be improved.
BPR and BPRS must have comprehensive testing scenarios covering all possible conditions for each testing to be conducted. The implementation of these scenarios must not disrupt the operational activities of BPR or BPRS. The implementation of testing scenarios is expected to detect weaknesses in existing procedures to improve the Disaster Recovery Plan.
The results of testing and analysis of each problem found during testing must be reported to the Board of Directors. Reported matters include at least:
a) assessment of the achievement of testing objectives; b) assessment of the validity of data processing testing; c) corrective actions to address problems that occurred; d) description of the comparison between the results of the Disaster Recovery Plan and the systems used, testing results, and proposed changes if there are differences; and e) recommendations for subsequent testing.
In case failure is found based on testing results, BPR and BPRS must examine the causes of failure or problems that occurred and conduct re-testing.
D. DISASTER RECOVERY PLAN MAINTENANCE
BPR and BPRS must ensure that the Disaster Recovery Plan can be executed at all times, among others, by increasing understanding across all organizational levels in BPR or BPRS or in IT service providers regarding the importance of the Disaster Recovery Plan and actively participating in the implementation of the Disaster Recovery Plan, particularly work units or employees responsible for Information Technology management.
BPR and BPRS must update the Disaster Recovery Plan to ensure its relevance to current conditions. In updating, matters to be considered include changes in systems, software, operating systems, hardware, related parties (counterparties), and service providers. These changes must be analyzed for their impact on the existing Disaster Recovery Plan and determine necessary improvements to accommodate these changes. Subsequently, the updated Disaster Recovery Plan must be documented and distributed to all organizational levels of BPR or BPRS.
CHAPTER VII
INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY INTERNAL AUDIT
An effective internal control system is an important component in the management of BPR and BPRS and serves as the basis for healthy and safe operational activities of BPR and BPRS. An effective internal control system can help BPR or BPRS in preserving assets, ensuring the availability of reliable financial and managerial reporting, increasing BPR or BPRS compliance with laws and regulations, and reducing the risk of losses, deviations, and violations of prudence aspects.
The use of Information Technology facilities, in addition to increasing the ability of BPR and BPRS to carry out operational activities, also contains risks that can result in losses, both financial and non-financial. Therefore, internal control systems need to be implemented as one of the efforts to minimize such losses.
The internal audit function is one part of the internal control system. The implementation of the internal audit function is carried out to evaluate the management of Information Technology independently and objectively to improve efficiency and effectiveness, internal controls, and good governance.
A. ORGANIZATION IMPLEMENTING THE INTERNAL AUDIT FUNCTION FOR INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY MANAGEMENT
The internal audit function regarding Information Technology management must be implemented as follows:
for BPR, the internal audit function regarding Information Technology management is conducted:

(a) the organization, authority, and responsibilities of the auditors; (b) the scope of the audit according to the risk assessment results; (c) audit objectives, schedules, number of auditors, budgets, and reporting; and (d) technical audit steps necessary to achieve audit objectives. In its implementation, internal audits of the management of Information Technology must consider aspects of confidentiality regarding data and information obtained. The organ implementing the internal audit function for the management of Information Technology must consider the flexibility of the AWP so that it can be adjusted and completed according to identified risks. In the execution of audits, it is accompanied by working papers, the content and format of audit result reports, documentation and distribution, and the monitoring of follow-up actions. Audit findings must be accompanied by evidence and well-documented audit working papers.
Reporting
The report on the implementation of the internal audit function for the management of Information Technology serves as a tool for the Board of Directors to assist in assessing the quality and performance of work units or employees responsible for the management of Information Technology, as well as providing improvement suggestions. The report is submitted promptly to the President Director and Board of Commissioners, with copies sent to Board of Directors members who oversee the compliance function and the audited work unit. Reports on the implementation of the internal audit function for the management of Information Technology are also submitted to the Financial Services Authority (OJK) as part of the implementation report and key points of internal audit results, or submitted separately in accordance with OJK regulations and provisions.
Audit Follow-up
The auditee must respond to the audit results. If findings require follow-up, the auditee must provide commitments and target completion times. Subsequently, the organ implementing the internal audit function for the management of Information Technology must periodically monitor the implementation of the auditee's commitments regarding audit results and verify the improvements made. The organ implementing the internal audit function for the management of Information Technology must maintain documentation of the results of such follow-up. Follow-up reports on audit results are submitted to the President Director and Board of Commissioners, with copies sent to Board of Directors members who oversee the compliance function.
Development and Testing of Electronic Systems
The organ implementing the internal audit function for the management of Information Technology needs to play a role in the development of Electronic Systems to ensure that Electronic Systems are in accordance with the needs of BPR or BPRS and applicable regulations, have adequate controls, and have means for traceability (audit trails), but cannot act as the determiner of the implementation of Electronic Systems, but rather participate as a resource person in control aspects, particularly regarding required security standards. This role is necessary so that auditors can maintain independence and objectivity in audits conducted when Electronic Systems are implemented. In addition, the organ implementing the internal audit function for the management of Information Technology may provide recommendations to the President Director or other Board of Directors members regarding controls that need to be implemented.
C. IMPLEMENTATION OF INTERNAL AUDIT FUNCTIONS FOR THE MANAGEMENT OF INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY CARRIED OUT BY EXTERNAL AUDITORS
In the event of limitations in the capacity of the internal audit function for Information Technology at BPR or BPRS, the implementation of internal audit functions may be carried out by external auditors such as Public Accountant Offices or Independent Information Technology Audit Institutions. The use of external auditor services to perform internal audit functions for the management of Information Technology at BPR or BPRS does not reduce the responsibility of the organ implementing the internal audit function for the management of Information Technology for audit findings and follow-up. The use of external auditor services must consider the size and complexity of the business of BPR or BPRS. The implementation of internal audit functions for the management of Information Technology by external auditors still considers competency aspects, including adequate knowledge and experience, independence, and is based on a cooperation agreement. Although the implementation of internal audit functions is carried out by external auditors, audit procedures for the management of Information Technology must still refer to the internal audit policies and procedures for the management of Information Technology owned by BPR or BPRS.
D. INTERNAL AUDIT OF ACTIVITIES CARRIED OUT BY INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY SERVICE PROVIDERS The party implementing the internal audit function of BPR and BPRS must ensure the controls operated by Information Technology service providers and test the effectiveness of those controls. BPR and BPRS must ensure that agreements with Information Technology service provider parties include clauses providing access rights, both logically and physically, for:
CHAPTER VIII
COOPERATION WITH INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY SERVICE PROVIDERS In order to increase effectiveness and efficiency to achieve strategic objectives, BPR and BPRS may cooperate with Information Technology service providers. Such cooperation causes BPR and BPRS to have dependence on the services provided continuously and/or for a certain period. Cooperation with Information Technology service providers can affect the risks of BPR and BPRS, including operational, compliance, and reputational risks. These risks can be caused, among others, by the failure of Information Technology service providers to provide services, violations of security, or the inability to comply with laws and regulations. BPR and BPRS remain responsible for the management of Information Technology carried out in cooperation with Information Technology service providers.
A. INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY SERVICE PROVIDER SELECTION PROCESS
Needs Determination
In the event that BPR and BPRS will cooperate with Information Technology service providers, BPR and BPRS need to determine needs by considering at least:
a) the results of identifying specific functions or activities whose management will be carried out by Information Technology service providers; and b) the results of assessments of risks that may arise from the cooperation to be implemented, The stage of needs determination must result in a document containing detailed information regarding the needs of BPR or BPRS for the services to be provided by Information Technology service providers. The content of such documents must at least cover:
a) the scope and characteristics of services, technology used, and support for customers; b) standards and service levels including availability and performance, change management, service quality, security, and business continuity; c) minimum characteristics that must be met by Information Technology service providers to be used, such as experience, process control, financial conditions, and references regarding reputation; d) technical monitoring carried out by BPR or BPRS and reporting criteria carried out by Information Technology service providers; e) requirements to be met, including regarding systems, data, and personnel training, when BPR or BPRS undergoes transition or migration to systems provided by Information Technology service providers; f) the duration of the cooperation agreement, termination, and minimum scope of the cooperation agreement; and g) protection of cooperation agreements such as limitation of liability, compensation, and insurance. In the event that the management of Information Technology is considered to be carried out by related parties to BPR or BPRS, the Board of Directors of BPR or BPRS must ensure that the preparation and implementation process carried out is not different in the event that the management of Information Technology is carried out by unrelated parties to BPR or BPRS (arm’s length principle).
Cost-Benefit Analysis
After determining the needs for cooperation to be carried out by BPR or BPRS with Information Technology service providers, BPR and BPRS must conduct an analysis of direct and indirect costs in written offers by Information Technology service providers with specifications in accordance with needs, types of services, matters necessary in determining cost-effectiveness, completion timeframes, security, and business continuity, SLA, and solutions to problems faced. When BPR and BPRS conduct an analysis of written offers submitted, there is a possibility of finding inconsistencies with the needs of BPR or BPRS. Therefore, BPR and BPRS must evaluate such differences and their impact on the objectives and services expected by BPR or BPRS. In order to optimize the cost-benefit analysis process, in addition to using own estimates (owners estimate), BPR and BPRS may compare the cost-benefit offered between Information Technology service providers. Subsequently, if the written offer meets the needs or conforms to the specification needs created by BPR or BPRS, BPR and BPRS need to negotiate with Information Technology service providers before creating a cooperation agreement.
Due Diligence on Information Technology Service Providers
Due diligence on Information Technology service providers is conducted in order to obtain assurance that Information Technology service providers are able to meet the needs of BPR or BPRS. To obtain such assurance, BPR and BPRS may conduct evaluations and assess information related to Information Technology service providers, including:
a) the existence and history of Information Technology service providers; b) the qualifications, background, and reputation of the owners of Information Technology service providers; c) other companies using the same services from Information Technology service providers as references; d) financial conditions, including examinations of audited financial reports; e) the ability and effectiveness of service provision, including after-sales support; f) technology and system architecture; g) internal control environment, security history, and audit scope; h) compliance with laws and regulations; i) trust and success in maintaining relationships with subcontractors; j) insurance and maintenance guarantees; k) the ability to provide disaster recovery and business continuity; l) the application of risk management; and/or m) reports on the results of independent audits. Due diligence on Information Technology service providers conducted by BPR or BPRS during the selection process must be well documented and conducted periodically as part of the monitoring and control process. In conducting periodic due diligence on Information Technology service providers, BPR and BPRS should pay attention to changes or developments that have occurred during the period since the last due diligence using the most recent information.
Determination of Information Technology Service Providers
In determining Information Technology service providers selected for use by BPR or BPRS in managing Information Technology, BPR and BPRS must consider the following:
a) previous reports made that reflect the performance of Information Technology service providers previously, which are necessary to assess the performance of Information Technology service providers adequately; b) the ability to provide reports reflecting the performance of Information Technology service providers necessary to monitor that the performance of Information Technology service providers is adequate; c) the results of analyses of cost-benefit for each choice of Information Technology service providers to be selected and analyses of the fulfillment of service usage timeframes in accordance with the business plans of BPR or BPRS; d) the application of adequate Information Technology control principles, evidenced by audit results conducted by independent parties on Information Technology service providers, including logical and physical security; e) information from various sources, including annual reports of Information Technology service providers, in order to evaluate the reliability, performance, reputation, and continuity of service provision by Information Technology service providers; f) the availability of access to Databases for the Financial Services Authority (OJK), internal auditors, external auditors appointed by BPR and BPRS, and other competent parties according to laws and regulations, in the event that current or past data is required; g) selection documents containing considerations regarding the application of the “arm's length principle”, in the event that Information Technology service providers are related parties to BPR or BPRS.
B. COOPERATION AGREEMENTS WITH INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY SERVICE PROVIDERS Cooperation agreements for the management of Information Technology with Information Technology service providers must at least cover:
