This study aims to analyze the integration of Pancasila values and Islamic Religious Education (PAI) in shaping digital ethics and to examine the development of digital law through the Islamic Sociological Jurisprudence Theory approach. This research employs a qualitative method with a literature study approach based on relevant academic sources and journals. The findings indicate that the integration of Pancasila and PAI serves as a comprehensive ethical foundation in shaping digital behavior by reinforcing moral, spiritual, and social values. Furthermore, digital law is understood as a product of the interaction between social and religious values, which is dynamic and adaptive to technological developments. The Islamic Sociological Jurisprudence Theory contributes to constructing a legal paradigm that is not only formal-legal but also contextual and oriented toward public welfare (maslahah). The ethical-based digital law development model integrating Pancasila and Islamic values is considered relevant in addressing contemporary digital challenges, such as misinformation, privacy violations, and cybercrime. However, this study also identifies limitations, particularly in the implementation aspect, which remains largely normative and has not been optimally integrated into concrete policies. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen adaptive regulations, develop applicable digital ethics education, and conduct further empirical research to establish a just and sustainable digital legal system.

This study aims to analyze the Cambodian government's efforts to address human trafficking from a human security perspective. It employs a qualitative descriptive approach, utilizing secondary data from relevant journals, reports, and academic publications. The findings indicate that human trafficking in Cambodia has evolved into a hub for digital-based fraud linked to transnational cybercrime networks. Victims face not only labor exploitation but are also coerced into participating in online fraudulent activities, such as romance scams. This surge in human trafficking is driven by weak law enforcement, high levels of corruption, low public digital literacy, and the rapid expansion of the online gambling industry and special economic zones, which serve as operational bases for criminal activities. The Cambodian government has implemented various measures regarding prevention, protection, and law enforcement through regulations, international cooperation, victim rescue operations, and anti-fraud campaigns. However, the effectiveness of these policies remains limited due to the state's constrained capacity and the ability of criminal networks to continuously adapt to advancements in digital technology. The study concludes that addressing human trafficking in Cambodia requires strengthened governance, more intensive international cooperation, and improved public digital literacy.

This study analyzes the regulatory gaps in digital forensics regarding the handling of natural resource crimes and the state’s constitutional responsibilities following the enactment of Law No. 1 of 2024. Modern natural resource crimes, such as illegal logging and illegal mining, have evolved to leverage digital technology, leaving complex electronic traces in the form of GPS data and digital documents. However, Indonesia still faces procedural gaps in the Criminal Procedure Code (KUHAP), unclear technical standards (SNI 27037:2014 is voluntary in nature), and conflicts between the Information and Electronic Transactions Law (UU ITE) and sectoral NRE laws. This normative legal study employs legislative, conceptual, and case-based approaches. The research findings indicate that the absence of digital forensic authentication standards has fatal implications, as evidenced by the Sidoarjo District Court Decision No. 488/Pid.B/2024/PN Sda, which rejected electronic evidence. This situation constitutes state negligence (staatsverzuim) that violates Article 1(3) and Article 33(3) of the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia. The study recommends the development of standard digital forensic procedures, the acceleration of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratory accreditation, and the harmonization of sectoral regulations

Digital transformation has brought significant changes to human life, including in the realms of law and the protection of human rights. The rapid development of information technology has introduced new challenges in the form of human rights violations in the digital space, such as privacy breaches, the spread of misinformation, hate speech, and the increasing prevalence of cybercrime. This phenomenon indicates that the digital sphere not only offers benefits but also poses serious risks to the protection of individual rights. This study aims to analyze the reconstruction of legal awareness in addressing these challenges through a human rights approach and the Islamic Sociological Jurisprudence Theory. The research employs a normative legal method with conceptual and sociological approaches, emphasizing the analysis of literature and applicable legal norms. The findings reveal that conventional legal approaches have not been fully capable of addressing the complexity of evolving digital issues. Therefore, an integration of human rights principles and a contextual Islamic legal approach through Islamic Sociological Jurisprudence is required. This approach highlights the importance of maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah, substantive justice, and legal awareness that is adaptive to social change. Thus, the reconstruction of legal awareness becomes a key element in establishing effective, just, and sustainable human rights protection in the digital era.

Phishing is a form of cybercrime that has experienced a significant increase in frequency within Indonesia. This fraudulent practice aims to deceive victims into surrendering personal data or sensitive financial information by impersonating trusted institutions. Such crimes result in substantial losses for both individuals and the business sector, particularly concerning personal data protection and digital transaction security. This research aims to analyze the legal regulations and the role of supervisory institutions in addressing phishing threats in Indonesia using a normative legal research method. The legal analysis encompasses the implementation of the Electronic Information and Transactions Law (UU ITE), specifically Article 28, paragraph (1), and the Personal Data Protection Law (UU No. 27 of 2022), which serves as the primary foundation for privacy rights. Furthermore, this study examines the Consumer Protection Law and the Indonesian Criminal Code (KUHP) as enforcement instruments. The strategic roles of the Financial Services Authority (OJK) and Bank Indonesia (BI) are also discussed in the context of risk mitigation within the financial sector. The findings indicate that law enforcement effectiveness is still hindered by low digital literacy, limited forensic technology infrastructure, and jurisdictional challenges in tracking cross-border perpetrators. Consequently, a synergy between regulatory strengthening, international collaboration, and massive public education is required to comprehensively suppress these cybercriminal activities.

Digital literacy is an individual's ability to access, understand, evaluate, and use digital information and technology wisely, critically, and responsibly. This skill is crucial for students to use technology safely and avoid various risks in the digital space. The development of digital technology and the increasingly widespread use of social media have provided various conveniences in people's lives, particularly in communication and information access. However, on the other hand, these developments also pose various risks for children and adolescents, one of which is the crime of child grooming in the digital space. Child grooming is a manipulative act perpetrated by adults by building emotional closeness and trust with children for the purpose of sexual exploitation. This study aims to examine the role of digital literacy in raising students' awareness of the dangers of child grooming in the digital era. The method used in this study was a Systematic Literature Review (SLR. The results indicate that low digital literacy among students makes them more vulnerable to various forms of digital crime, including child grooming that occurs through social media and online games. Conversely, strengthening digital literacy through education in schools, the role of guidance and counseling teachers, and parental supervision can increase students' awareness of the risks of digital interactions and protect themselves from potential cybercrimes. Therefore, digital literacy is a crucial effort in preventing child grooming and protecting children in the era of information technology development.

The swift advancement of information technology has greatly influenced society, while also raising the threat of cybercrime. These offenses encompass the theft of social media accounts, unauthorized access to online information, and breaches of personal data security. This research intends to explore various types of cybercrime in Indonesia, the legal measures in place, and the obstacles law enforcement encounters when proving cybercrime incidents. The study adopts a qualitative method by reviewing literature, which includes laws, court rulings, academic articles, and reports from pertinent organizations. The findings reveal that even though laws like the Electronic Information and Transactions Law and the Personal Data Protection Law establish a legal framework, there are still issues related to digital evidence, coordination between agencies, and the public's understanding of data security. Consequently, there is a need for a more thorough law enforcement approach, enhanced digital education, and collaborative efforts among the government, law enforcement agencies, and the community to effectively combat and manage cybercrime.

This study examines the effectiveness of the Jambi Regional Police in enforcing criminal law in the digital era, particularly in addressing online gambling offences, from the perspective of Islamic law. The rapid development of information technology has transformed crime from physical spaces into cyberspace, characterised by anonymity, speed, and transnational reach, thereby requiring adaptive law enforcement strategies. This research adopts a qualitative juridical-empirical approach. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with law enforcement officers at the Jambi Regional Police, analysis of case documents, and examination of relevant legal frameworks, particularly Indonesia’s Electronic Information and Transactions Law (ITE Law). The findings reveal that the Jambi Regional Police have implemented several strategic measures in combating digital crimes, including cyber patrols, digital forensic investigations, seizure of electronic evidence, and inter-agency coordination. Nevertheless, the effectiveness of law enforcement remains constrained by technological limitations, complex digital evidence requirements, the transnational nature of cybercrime, and limited public digital legal awareness. From an Islamic law perspective, police actions against online gambling align with the objectives of maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah, particularly the protection of religion (ḥifẓ al-dīn), property (ḥifẓ al-māl), and intellect (ḥifẓ al-‘aql). This study concludes that while digital criminal law enforcement by the Jambi Regional Police is fundamentally appropriate, it requires strengthened institutional capacity, integration of Islamic legal values, and adaptive policy reforms to enhance effectiveness and substantive justice.

This research examines Islamic legal protection for victims of social engineering crimes within the context of cybercrime. Social engineering is a form of digital crime that exploits psychological manipulation and trust to obtain personal data, system access, or financial benefits. Such crimes cause not only material losses but also immaterial harm, including psychological trauma, violations of privacy, dignity, and personal security. However, positive legal frameworks tend to prioritize offender punishment, while victim protection and recovery remain insufficiently addressed. This study adopts a qualitative approach with a normative-juridical research design, complemented by limited empirical insights. Data were collected through library research on Islamic legal sources—namely the Qur’an, Hadith, and fiqh jināyah—alongside statutory regulations on cybercrime and selected interviews with legal scholars and practitioners. The analysis employs a descriptive-analytical method grounded in the maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah framework, particularly the principles of ḥifẓ al-māl (protection of property), ḥifẓ al-‘irḍ (protection of dignity), and ḥifẓ al-nafs (protection of life and psychological security). The findings demonstrate that Islamic law provides a robust normative foundation for protecting victims of social engineering crimes. Such protection extends beyond retributive punishment through ta‘zīr and emphasizes restorative justice by prioritizing victims’ rights restoration, offender accountability, and public welfare. Islamic law is both adaptive and relevant in addressing contemporary cybercrime challenges and may serve as a humanistic, just, and responsive model for victim protection in the digital era.

The industrial revolution 4.0 has brought rapid advances in technology, one of which is artificial intelligence (AI). AI has the ability to imitate the human thought and action process in solving various problems. However, the implementation of AI raises legal problems related to responsibility for the negative impacts caused, such as cybercrime, information manipulation, privacy violations, and misuse of technology. Indonesia, as a country based on law, is faced with the challenge of regulating AI to be in line with technological developments. Currently, legal regulations in Indonesia do not specifically regulate the legal responsibility of AI. Positive laws, such as the Civil Code and the ITE Law, can be used interpretively, but are not enough to address the complexity of AI. Legal responsibility related to AI is debatable, whether it is imposed on the developer, owner, or user of AI. In addition, AI does not have a “mens rea” in criminal law, so that unlawful acts are more relevant to be imposed on the responsible human. To overcome this problem, legal reform or the creation of special regulations that comprehensively regulate AI are needed. These regulations must include privacy protection, data security, and criminal and civil liability due to the use of AI. With a clear legal framework, the risk of AI misuse can be minimized and its use can be optimized for the welfare of society.

The rapid development of artificial intelligence technology, particularly deepfake, poses significant challenges to legal protection due to its potential misuse for identity manipulation, defamation, and other cybercrimes. This phenomenon highlights a gap between technological advancement and the readiness of legal regulations in Indonesia. This study aims to analyze forms of deepfake misuse and to assess the effectiveness of existing legal frameworks in providing legal protection and certainty. The research employs a normative legal method using statutory and conceptual approaches by examining legislation, legal doctrines, and relevant scholarly literature. The findings indicate that Indonesian positive law does not yet specifically regulate deepfake technology, resulting in law enforcement relying on general provisions of criminal law and the Electronic Information and Transactions Law. The implications of this study emphasize the urgency of regulatory reform and the formulation of adaptive legal policies to address digital technological developments in order to ensure legal protection and justice for society.

The development of deepfake technology, which utilises artificial intelligence to manipulate images, videos and sounds, has led to a serious threat of sextortion. In the Indonesian context, high internet penetration and low awareness of digital security increase the risk of this crime. This research analyses the legal consequences of the misuse of deepfake technology in sextortion based on the Electronic Information and Transaction Law (UU ITE). Using normative juridical methods and descriptive-qualitative analysis, this research examines the legal challenges faced in enforcing sanctions against this crime and provides recommendations to strengthen the legal framework in Indonesia. The results show that there are gaps in the legal framework that need to be addressed, as well as the importance of education and capacity building of law enforcement in dealing with cybercrime. In addition, the development of more sophisticated deepfake detection technology is expected to be a solution in tackling this abuse in the future.

The reform of criminal law in Indonesia has become an increasingly urgent necessity in line with social developments, technological advancement, and the growing complexity and diversity of crime. Law Number 1 of 2023 concerning the new Criminal Code (Kitab Undang-Undang Hukum Pidana/KUHP) emerges as a comprehensive effort to replace the colonial-era Criminal Code and to align the national criminal law system with the current conditions of Indonesian society. This new Criminal Code introduces several significant changes, including the regulation of cybercrime, protection of the environment, the reinforcement of humanitarian values, and the strengthening of the principle of limiting criminal sanctions on individual liberty in order to ensure the protection of human rights. This paper aims to analyze the direction and substance of the Criminal Code reform, evaluate its potential implementation, and assess the implications of these changes for criminal law enforcement practices in Indonesia. The research method employed is a literature review using a normative approach, conducted through the analysis of statutory regulations, criminal law theories, and relevant case studies. The results of the analysis indicate that the new Criminal Code provides a more adaptive and responsive legal framework to contemporary issues; however, the effectiveness of its implementation largely depends on the readiness of law enforcement authorities, the intensity of regulatory socialization, and the level of public legal awareness. This study concludes that criminal law reform represents a strategic step toward realizing a criminal justice system that is more just, effective, and aligned with the values of Pancasila.

The giveaway phenomenon in the digital era has become a popular strategy to increase interaction on social media. However, this popularity is also used by irresponsible individuals to commit fraud under the guise of giveaways. This article aims to identify the modus operandi of giveaway fraud, provide guidance on recognizing the characteristics of fraud, and present preventive measures to avoid it. The methods used include literature review of digital fraud cases, analysis of cybercrime patterns, and interviews with digital literacy experts. The results show that the fraud mode often uses fake accounts that resemble official organizers, asks for personal information or payment of certain fees, and offers rewards that are too fantastic to lure victims. Low digital literacy is one of the main factors in the high number of victims of this fraud. By raising public awareness through education about the characteristics of fraud and methods of verifying information sources, the potential for victims can be minimized. In conclusion, systematic prevention efforts and active participation of the community in disseminating related information are important to protect internet users from the threat of giveaway fraud. This article recommends improving digital literacy programs and strengthening regulations against cybercrime as a long-term step.

Digital fraud, particularly schemes involving the distribution of fake wedding invitations through instant messaging applications such as WhatsApp, has developed into a serious problem in Indonesia along with the increasing use of digital technology in everyday life. This fraudulent modus operandi exploits victims’ curiosity, trust, and panic to prompt them to open malicious links or download harmful files containing malware. Such malware has the potential to damage device systems, steal personal data, and access sensitive information, including banking accounts and social media profiles. This form of fraud not only causes significant financial losses for victims but also results in psychological impacts, such as fear, trauma, and a loss of trust in digital communication. This article aims to comprehensively examine the modus operandi of digital fraud through fake wedding invitations, analyze the relevant legal framework, and assess the social and economic impacts on society. In addition, the article emphasizes the importance of improving digital literacy as an effective preventive measure to minimize the risk of digital fraud. To address this issue, the article proposes strengthening cooperation among law enforcement agencies, cybersecurity institutions, and technology service providers. Recommendations are also directed toward reinforcing regulations, enhancing the effectiveness of law enforcement, and intensifying public awareness campaigns to reduce the incidence of digital fraud in Indonesia.

Digital transformation in the land sector is part of the state’s efforts to enhance efficiency, transparency, and legal certainty within the land registration system. One of the strategic policies implemented is the issuance of electronic land certificates as a substitute for conventional certificates. However, the implementation of electronic land certificates raises several legal issues, particularly concerning their evidentiary value and the guarantee of legal certainty for holders of land rights. This article aims to analyze the legal regulation of electronic land certificates within Indonesia’s land registration system, examine their evidentiary strength in civil disputes, and identify the legal and technical challenges in their implementation. The research employs a normative juridical method using statutory and conceptual approaches. The findings indicate that electronic land certificates have a valid legal basis and possess evidentiary strength equivalent to that of conventional certificates, provided that the principles of validity and security of electronic systems are fulfilled. Nevertheless, their implementation still faces challenges related to technological infrastructure readiness, public legal literacy, and potential vulnerability to cybercrime. Therefore, strengthening technical regulations, enhancing system security, and conducting continuous public dissemination are necessary to ensure legal certainty for holders of electronic land certificates.

Phishing constitutes a form of cybercrime that continues to proliferate alongside the rapid advancement of information technology, causing significant impacts on data security and financial losses. This study aims to analyse the forms of criminal liability applicable to phishing perpetrators under Indonesian criminal law and to identify the challenges and solutions in its enforcement. The research employs a normative juridical approach utilising literature review methodology. The findings demonstrate that criminal liability for phishing perpetrators can be established through provisions in the Electronic Information and Transactions Law (ITE Law) as amended by Law Number 1 of 2024, the Indonesian Penal Code (KUHP), and related regulations. However, law enforcement faces numerous obstacles, including inadequate specific legal regulations, limited digital forensic technology, low public legal literacy, and cross-border jurisdictional barriers. In judicial proceedings, evidentiary processes are frequently hindered by the complexity of electronic evidence and the limited technical understanding among law enforcement officers. This study recommends regulatory reform, capacity building for human resources, international cooperation, and public education to strengthen the effectiveness of law enforcement against phishing crimes.
