Complete, Check the Guide on How to Activate MFA for ASN Digital for PNS and PPPK Latest April 2025

Kapanlagi.com - In an era where threats to digital data security are increasing, the National Civil Service Agency (BKN) is stepping forward with impressive innovations! In April 2025, BKN will launch the Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) feature that must be activated by all Civil Servants (PNS) and Government Employees with Work Agreements (PPPK) to access ASN digital services. This feature is not just an addition, but a crucial line of defense in maintaining the integrity and confidentiality of state personnel data.

The Head of BKN, Prof. Zudan Arif Fakrulloh, explained that MFA is an advanced security system that requires more than one form of verification when users want to access BKN's digital services. This step is taken to protect the strategic data managed by BKN and other government agencies. "Data today is a valuable asset that drives innovation and efficiency across various sectors. It is not just numbers and statistics, but the foundation for policy formulation and decision-making," he emphasized, as reported from bkn.go.id.

With the implementation of this MFA system, BKN hopes to provide a solid additional layer of security for all ASN employees. For PNS and PPPK who have not yet activated MFA, it is very important to immediately follow the established procedures to ensure their accounts are well protected. Don't wait any longer, secure your data and be part of this positive change!

1. Preparation Before Activating MFA

Before starting the MFA activation process, make sure you have downloaded and installed the Google Authenticator app on your mobile device. This app will generate the verification codes needed at each step of the activation. Additionally, ensure you have access to your MyASN and SIASN accounts as both accounts are required to log in and activate MFA.

After installing Google Authenticator, you are ready to proceed to the next steps. Also, make sure your internet connection is stable to avoid interruptions during the activation process.

2. First Step: Accessing the ASN Digital Website

To start the activation process, visit the official BKN site at https://asndigital.bkn.go.id using a browser on your computer or laptop. Once the homepage opens, simply click the BKN logo located in the upper corner. Next, select the "Login" menu to access your account. On the login page, enter the username and password for your registered MyASN account. If you do not have an account yet, don't worry! Register yourself through the platform provided by BKN.

3. Second Step: Activate MFA and Choose OTP

After successfully logging in, a pop-up will greet you with important information regarding MFA activation. Just click the "Activate MFA (OTP)" button displayed on the screen, and the system will take you to the SIASN page to continue the process. Here, you will be asked to enter your SSO ASN account login information. Once all steps are completed, the MFA activation page will be ready for further processing, marking your first step towards enhanced security!

4. Step Three: Activation Process via Google Authenticator

After the activation page appears, open the Google Authenticator app on your phone. Click the plus icon in the app to start scanning the QR code that will be displayed on your computer screen. Use your phone's camera to scan the QR code.

Once the QR code is detected, the Google Authenticator app will generate a OTP (One-Time Password) that is valid for the activation process. Enter the OTP into the field provided on the MFA activation page on your computer.

5. Final Step: Verification and Completion

After entering the OTP, you will be prompted to fill in the "Device name" field with a memorable name of your choice. This is useful for distinguishing the device you are using in case you need to perform further verification later.

After that, click the "Submit" button to complete the activation process. If all steps are followed correctly, the MFA system will be active and you can immediately enjoy BKN's digital services with a higher level of security.
