Indonesia Strengthens Cybercrime Enforcement with Binance Collaboration
Binance Blog published a new article, highlighting its role as a knowledge partner in Indonesia's efforts to combat cybercrime and economic crime. The collaboration involves Indonesia’s Directorate of Cyber Crime (Bareskrim Polri), Cyber Crime Directorate of Metro Jaya Regional Police, and Financial Intelligence Unit (PPATK), aiming to enhance enforcement capabilities through training, investigative support, and collaborative casework. This initiative underscores the importance of sustained collaboration and knowledge sharing in addressing cross-border crypto crimes.
Earlier this month, Binance Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU) representatives engaged in a series of meetings, training sessions, and bilateral engagements with Indonesian law enforcement and government agencies. These interactions, involving cybercrime investigators and financial intelligence specialists, reflect a shared mission to build stronger capabilities, foster trust, and ensure a safer digital ecosystem. Binance FIU was invited to present at the 2025 Cyber Crime Investigation Capacity-Building Training, organized in partnership with Bareskrim Polri. This program provided a platform for sharing investigative techniques, insights into crypto-related crimes, and best practices from the private sector, equipping investigators with the necessary tools to detect, prevent, and respond to sophisticated threats.
As a token of appreciation, Police Senior Superintendent Budi Hermanto, Head of Cyber Crime Directorate’s Sub-Directorate III, presented Binance with a plaque recognizing its ongoing support and collaborative efforts. This acknowledgment highlights the tangible impact of knowledge-sharing and partnership in addressing complex, cross-border crypto crimes, emphasizing Binance FIU’s commitment to protecting the broader crypto community. Additionally, Binance extended its knowledge-sharing efforts to regional partners, including a session with the Cyber Crime Directorate of Metro Jaya Regional Police. Here, experts discussed insights on recent cases, and Vice Director Mr. Fian Yunus presented a token of appreciation, reflecting the trust established through consistent, results-driven partnership.
The engagements concluded with a session at Indonesia’s Financial Intelligence Unit (PPATK), led by Mdm Diana Soraya Noor, focusing on establishing a stronger Binance-PPATK task force. This collaboration aims to merge global expertise with local intelligence to combat illicit finance more effectively. Binance’s FIU is dedicated to safeguarding the financial ecosystem, ensuring user asset protection and secure, compliant crypto platform operations. By integrating international best practices with local intelligence, the collaboration with Indonesian crime fighters strengthens resilience against sophisticated financial crimes and enhances trust across the digital-asset landscape.
From Indonesia’s national cybercrime units to its financial intelligence leaders, a unified message emerged: cybercrime is a shared challenge, and Indonesia is confronting it with vision and determination. Binance stands alongside these dedicated agencies, contributing global expertise while learning from Indonesia’s proactive and innovative approaches. Cybercrime knows no borders, but neither does the commitment to working together for a safer digital future.
