Tokopedia has also experienced hacking. Tokopedia is an e-commerce, one of which has experienced hacking, which resulted in hackers breaking into a number of Personal Data, which previously amounted to 15 million to 91 million user data.1 From the Tokopedia hacking case, it is necessary to implement the responsibility for protecting Personal Data managed by the organizer of the electronic platform or system, namely Tokopedia.
