Abstract

This paper presents a secure data-hiding framework that combines asymmetric key cryptography, lossless data compression, and image steganography to enhance the confidentiality and imperceptibility of hidden communications. The proposed method encrypts the secret message using an asymmetric encryption scheme, compresses the resulting ciphertext using Huffman coding, and embeds the compressed data into a digital image using a spatial-domain steganographic technique. This multi-layered approach ensures that both the existence and the content of the secret message are protected. Experimental evaluations were conducted using standard image quality metrics, including Mean Squared Error (MSE), Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio (PSNR), and Structural Similarity Index Measure (SSIM), to assess visual imperceptibility, along with performance analysis to evaluate computational overhead. The results demonstrate that the proposed method achieves high image quality with minimal distortion while maintaining strong cryptographic security. The integration of compression effectively reduces embedding payload, further improving steganographic performance. The findings indicate that the proposed framework provides a robust and practical solution for secure and covert data transmission.

Abstract

The design and implementation of a web-based administrative information system for Subbagian Tata Usaha at Pusat Pertahanan Siber (Pushansiber), Ministry of Defense, Indonesia, addressed critical inefficiencies in manual Excel and paper-based processes causing data redundancy, workflow delays, and limited real-time access. Using Rapid Application Development (RAD) methodology, this research developed an integrated system with innovative features for high-security defense environments: five-tier Role-Based Access Control (RBAC), Server-Sent Events (SSE) for real-time notifications, automated leave quota validation, and competency mapping algorithms with gap analysis. This work contributes a validated framework for administrative digitalization in high-security defense environments by integrating five administrative workflows into a unified platform with RBAC, real-time SSE notifications, and comprehensive audit logging addressing the literature gap where existing studies overlooked security-sensitive requirements in government contexts. Black Box testing with 20 scenarios validated functionalities, demonstrating quantifiable improvements: leave approval time reduced 85% (3-5 days to 4 hours), personnel data retrieval improved from 15-20 minutes to 30 seconds, missed tasks decreased from 20% to below 5%, announcement delivery achieved 97%, and data entry errors reduced to below 2%. This research establishes a replicable model for defense administrative transformation, contributing empirical evidence to public sector digital transformation literature.

Abstract

This study describes the development of a web based correspondence information application for managing incoming and outgoing letters in the Kamar Sandi unit (Pamsisinfosan Division, Pusdatin Kemhan RI), replacing a legacy Visual Basic desktop system with unreliable database access, single host limitation, no scheduled backups, and a non intuitive interface. This research employs the Rapid Application Development (RAD) method to facilitate iterative prototyping and rapid adaptation to operational requirements. Using a modular Laravel/Livewire + MySQL stack, the application centralizes letter metadata and master data (origin/destination, security degree, communication channel, cryptographic system) and provides automated agenda numbering, role-based access control (Admin, Pimpinan, Petugas), and a secure flow for classified letters via PIN validation and hashed identifiers. Supporting modules include a notification center, activity/audit logs, Excel/PDF export, and scheduled backup–restore with PIN gated downloads. Evaluation results indicate a significant increase in operational efficiency, evidenced by a ~60% reduction in mail recording time and a decrease in data retrieval duration from over 10 minutes to under 5 seconds, with a 100% success rate in eliminating agenda duplication errors. The application operationalizes these findings through granular authorization, input & CSRF validation, gated secret document access, indexed search with multi criteria filtering, and integrated backup–restore enhancing accessibility, retrieval efficiency, and auditability while lowering operational risk. Key contributions are: (1) translating migration pain points into an iterative implementation, (2) embedding security and preservation features at design time, and (3) presenting an evidence aligned functional model for government records management. Future enhancement can add retention policy automation and secure inter agency integration.

Abstract

The rapid development of digital technology requires organizations, particularly government agencies, to implement robust and reliable data security systems. Data security is critical as the information managed is not only operationally valuable but also strategic and sensitive. The Center for Data and Information (Pusdatin) of the Ministry of Defense of the Republic of Indonesia plays a key role in managing and safeguarding defense-related data used for strategic decision-making. Based on observations and interviews, the existing data security system is considered adequate; however, several technical weaknesses remain, particularly in file management mechanisms and unstructured user access controls, which may lead to risks of data leakage and misuse. Therefore, this study aims to enhance data and file security through the implementation of Advanced Encryption Standard (AES-256) encryption and Role-Based Access Control (RBAC). This research employs the Waterfall method for system development, including analysis, design, implementation, and testing stages. System evaluation is conducted using functional testing and access control validation to assess the effectiveness of the implemented security mechanisms. The results indicate that AES-256 successfully ensures data confidentiality and integrity, while RBAC effectively restricts user access according to predefined roles, thereby reducing unauthorized access risks. The proposed system demonstrates improved data security and management efficiency, supporting a secure, efficient, and sustainable defense information system at Pusdatin The rapid development of digital technology requires organizations, particularly government agencies, to implement robust and reliable data security systems.
