<![CDATA[The rapid growth of digital media has transformed information dissemination in Indonesia, but it also fuels the spread of hoaxes, hate speech, and divisive content, threatening national resilience. This study aims to analyze how information media management can be optimized to strengthen national unity and security. Using a qualitative descriptive-analytical approach, the research examines government reports, academic studies, and news articles to explore challenges and strategies in managing digital media. The findings reveal that hoaxes and hate speech, particularly on social media, erode public trust and deepen social polarization, with significant cases during the coronavirus disease pandemic.

This study concludes that a comprehensive approach combining technology, regulation, and public engagement is essential to counter disinformation and foster a resilient society capable of maintaining national values and unity in the digital era.]]>
