MATARAM – In order to anticipate increasingly dynamic cyber threats, the Center for Information Technology and Database (PTIPD) of UIN Maulana Malik Ibrahim Malang sent a special team to attend the activity. “"Cross-Sector Collaboration Strengthens Cybersecurity"”. This national scale event was held on June 23–24, 2026 located at the University of Mataram, West Nusa Tenggara (NTB).

This strategic forum was attended by high-ranking officials from the National Cyber and Crypto Agency (BSSN), the Deputy Governor of West Nusa Tenggara and regional government officials, as well as representatives of IT managers from various universities in Indonesia.

PTIPD UIN Malang has specifically assigned two expert personnel from CSIRT (Computer Security Incident Response Team) UIN Malang. The presence of this cyber incident response team is tangible evidence of the campus' commitment to building a solid digital defense.

Throughout the two days of implementation, participants were presented with material and intensive discussions that focused on four main pillars:

• National Cybersecurity Strengthening Strategy
