Abstract

The increasing importance of personal data protection in public services, especially in Indonesia, has become a critical issue due to frequent data breaches involving large organizations. This community service project was conducted to address the growing need for public awareness and implementation of personal data protection measures. The project aimed to educate the public and relevant institutions about the legal frameworks, such as the Personal Data Protection Law (UU No. 27 of 2022), and the importance of safeguarding personal data through digital security measures. The methodology employed included interactive webinars and the dissemination of educational materials focusing on digital device security, password management, and two-factor authentication. The results of the community service showed a significant improvement in participants’ understanding of personal data protection practices, as well as an increased adoption of digital security techniques such as encryption and secure authentication methods. In conclusion, raising public awareness and providing practical solutions to protect personal data are essential steps in mitigating the risks of cyber threats in public services
