Indonesia as chairman of ASEAN able to take advantage of the opportunity to handle the problem of cyberattacks in Southeast Asia. Therefore, this article discusses Indonesia's role in dealing with cyber security problems in Southeast Asia through Indonesia's role approach to Ego's Role Conception and Alter's Prescription. The research method used in this article is qualitative to explain Indonesia's role in mitigating cyber security problems in Southeast Asia. By using Systematic Review with Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses as a reference in conducting literature studies.
