Abstract

The rapid advancement of information technology in the modern era has significantly transformed various aspects of life, including the dissemination of information and digital services. In Indonesia, this transformation is marked by the widespread use of electronic systems in daily activities, by the government, private sector, and individuals alike. However, this progress also brings new challenges, particularly concerning child protection in digital spaces. Children, as a vulnerable group, are at risk of exposure to inappropriate digital content, misuse of personal data, and online exploitation.This article aims to analyze the obligations of electronic system providers in ensuring child protection, as regulated in Law Number 1 of 2024 concerning the Second Amendment to Law Number 11 of 2008 on Electronic Information and Transactions (ITE Law). The study uses a normative juridical approach, analyzing applicable regulations, literature reviews, and relevant case examples.The findings indicate that Law Number 1 of 2024 strengthens the legal framework regarding the responsibilities of electronic system providers to ensure children's safety in the digital world. These responsibilities include content filtering, protection of children's personal data, and the provision of reporting and violation handling systems. This article emphasizes the importance of the active role of electronic system providers in creating a safe and child-friendly digital environment, as well as the need for government oversight and public participation in its implementation. This study is expected to serve as a reference for policy development on child protection in the digital era.
