MidLand, Jakarta – Viral on social media X is the summary information system of the General Election Commission, or Shit It is suspected that the KPU of the Republic of Indonesia is not ready to be used for general elections or simultaneous elections in 2024. This viral information on social media happened just two days before the elections on February 14, 2024.
The problem with Sirekap was conveyed by the Menfess report @UGM_FESSone user tried Application Take action from the KPU by uploading photos. It turns out that the photo results and those read in the application are different. Sirekap KPU is suspected to have had technical problems.

Another account in name @izinbertanya asking similar questions. He stated that he had analyzed the KPU Sirekap application, admitting that he uses a simple method, that is, using a web browser. As a result, the tweeting account found “more connection Use “dev”, looks like it’s in development, but was forced to create it on THE production.” This post was liked by more than 23 thousand users.
Alfons Tanujaya, cybersecurity expert and Akuncom professional, agrees with the assessment that the Sirekap KPU application does not appear ready to work and has many shortcomings. The consequence, he said, is that the application will be slow and have errors if used later. “In the extreme case, data could be breached during vote counting,” Alfons said when contacted on Monday, February 12, 2024.
However, even if there is a possibility of hacking the Sirekap KPU, it is believed that this action will not have any impact on the results of the 2024 simultaneous elections. The reason is that, legally, the votes counted are those that come from the data in the field. The KPU’s Sirekap application, he added, should only be used as a data store and not for final calculation results.
“The main point,” he stressed, “if it were to damage the election results, it might not happen.” Even if a hack occurs or happenshack, Alfons predicted, would only make noise. “If the final vote complies with the law, the valid one will come from the on-field count which will be seen together,” Alfons said again.

Until this news was written, the Head of the KPU Data and Information Division, Betty Epsilon Idroos, had not responded to requests TIME to respond to alleged issues with Sirekap. However, separately, several regional KPUs confirmed that there would be no problems using the Sirekap application for the February 14, 2024 elections.
This is what the head of the technical division for the election of the Kulon Progo KPU, DIY, Hidayatut Toyyibah, said today, Monday 12 February 2024. According to him, the only problem was during the application activation process. Another potential obstacle that could arise is the difficulty of Internet signals and slow servers today.
Even so, Hidayatut said that this Internet signal problem could be solved because the Sirekap application could run without Internet signal, i.e. offline. It is guaranteed that the process will not be interrupted. “Documents on Sirekap Mobile can still be uploaded even if there is no signal, then when there is an internet signal they can be sent to the Sirekap site,” he said, quoted by BETWEEN.
