Jakarta (B2B) - Badan Intelijen Negara (BIN) akan menjalani modernisasi peralatan untuk menghadapi tantangan masa depan dengan membangun intelijen yang tangguh dan profesional.
Kepala BIN Sutiyoso mengatakan BIN harus memiliki peralatan yang super canggih agar dapat bersaing dengan intelijen asing, dan modernisasi peralatan BIN akan didatangkan dari berbagai negara yang memiliki peralatan canggih untuk menunjang kinerja BIN.
"Kita harus memiliki alat yang super canggih, seperti apa, tentu ini masalah teknis yang nggak bisa saya jelaskan," kata Sutiyoso usai dilantik Presiden Joko Widodo di Istana Negara Jakarta, Kamis.
Sutiyoso menggantikan Letnan Jenderal TNI (Purnawirawan) Marciano Norman yang usianya belasan tahun lebih muda.
"Saya akan datangkan dari berbagai referensi. Nanti akan kita lihat yang dimiliki negara-negara besar seperti Rusia, Amerika, apa yang mereka miliki, karena di dalam intelijen itu khan mempunyai komunitas internasional juga," katanya.
Namun, lanjutnya, modernisasi peralatan intelijen ini juga melihat kemampuan negara sehingga akan dilakukan secara bertahap.
Mantan Gubernur DKI Jakarta ini mengatakan akan membangun intelijen yang tangguh dan profesional. Ke depan akan banyak sekali pekerjaan yang menghadang. Dia berjanji akan melakukan perbaikan struktur organisasi BIN dengan meningkatkan sumber daya manusia maupun perlengkapan yang dimiliki.
"Salah satunya itu yang perlu kita waspadai adalah radikalisme, juga terorisme, karena mereka bisa melakukan doktrin lewat dunia maya," ungkapnya.
Sutiyoso mengatakan, BIN harus memiliki alat canggih untuk menangkal doktrin radikalisme dan terorisme melalui pengguna internet maupun teknologi komunikasi.
Menurutnya, pekerjaan intelijen itu memerlukan banyak sekali informasi dari berbagai sumber sehingga ke depan BIN akan lebih terbuka.
"Artinya, akan memberikan peluang kepada masyarakat untuk memberikan informasi apa saja, berpartisipasi yang ada kaitannya dengan keamanan negara," katanya.
