Law enforcement against cybercrime within the jurisdiction of the Bali Regional Police is specifically carried out by the Bali Regional Police Cyber Investigation Directorate. From 2023 to 2025, cybercrime cases increased at varying rates each year. In 2023, there were 54 cases, 47 in 2024, and 35 in 2025. The purpose of this research is to examine and analyze the effectiveness of cybercrime law enforcement within the jurisdiction of the Bali Regional Police and the obstacles faced by the Bali Regional Police in investigating and prosecuting cybercrime cases. This research uses an empirical method, utilizing a statutory regulatory approach, legal concept analysis, and factual analysis. The results of the study indicate that cybercrime law enforcement within the jurisdiction of the Bali Regional Police has not achieved the desired level of effectiveness. This despite various efforts, both preventive and repressive. Meanwhile, obstacles faced by the Bali Regional Police in investigating and prosecuting cybercrime cases include: legal substance factors due to jurisdictional limitations; legal structure factors including minimal human resources within the police investigators and limited investigative budgets; and legal culture factors due to a lack of legal awareness and low public participation.
