Digital Trust & Protection for Pariwisata

Digital trust and cyber security services that protect your booking channels, guest data and reputation, so guests can trust what they see of you online.

Almost every guest now books through a screen. They look at your Instagram, open your website, then pay. If any one of those is faked or broken into, the guest loses money and your property loses its good name.

SiberWisata is a managed cybersecurity service for hotels, resorts, villas, restaurants and tour operators in Bali. Our team watches your systems, accounts and business name online, and steps in when something isn't right.

This is how it usually happens

Three scenarios we put together from common attack patterns. They are not stories about our clients.

A booking site that looks just like yours

A guest in Melbourne searches for your villa and finds a site with exactly the same photos, rates and logo. She pays a deposit for five nights. When she arrives in Canggu, her name isn't on the reservation list. The site was never yours, but the one-star review lands on your page.

Your Instagram, taken over in high season

Your marketing person gets a DM that looks like it came from Meta: your account has broken copyright rules, click here to appeal. An hour later the password has changed and your account is posting a “60% off, pay today” promo. A dozen followers have paid before you can warn anyone.

The front-desk PC locks up on a full weekend

Saturday afternoon, every room is booked and a group is arriving for check-in. The front-desk screen suddenly shows a single message: all files are encrypted, pay in Bitcoin. The PMS won't open, the room list is gone, and the team is back to pen and paper.

All three can be prevented, or at least caught early. That is our job.

What we protect

Four areas, one team. You don't have to deal with four different vendors.

Managed Detection & Response (MDR)

PCs, servers, PMS and POS

What we watch: Front-office PCs, servers, PMS and POS. Early signs of ransomware and unusual network activity.

When something goes wrong: Our analysts confirm whether the threat is real, isolate infected devices as agreed, then contact the person you've named.

Cloud Email Protection

Google Workspace + Microsoft 365

What we watch: Phishing and malicious email, suspicious sign-ins, compromised accounts and changes made by admins.

When something goes wrong: We lock the affected account, end the attacker's sessions and help check whether any invoices or bank details have been changed.

Brand Protection

Social media, websites and domains

What we watch: Fake accounts using your name and logo, cloned booking sites and domains made to look like yours.

When something goes wrong: We gather evidence, file takedown requests with platforms, hosts and registrars, and keep following up. The final decision stays with the platform.

Security Assessment

Penetration testing

What we watch: We test your website, booking engine, network and guest Wi-Fi the way a real attacker would, with written permission and an agreed scope.

When something goes wrong: You get a findings report, ordered by urgency, with fixes you can pass straight to your IT or web vendor.

* Monitoring is continuous. Analyst hours and response times are agreed per plan and written into the contract.

Cyber Assurance: security expertise when you need it

Most tourism and hospitality businesses have no in-house expertise in cybercrime, hacking, phishing or digital fraud. Cyber Assurance gives you the assurance that this expertise is right here in Bali, ready when you need it. For a basic monthly fee, you, your IT team or your IT vendor can reach the Sawah Cyber Security team whenever you have a question, a doubt, or something feels off. No need to book a new project every time.

What's included

  • Questions and advice

    Ask about account security, system settings or a new device you're thinking of buying. We answer in plain language.

  • Suspicious email and message checks

    Forward an email, DM or link you're unsure about. We check it, tell you whether it's safe and what to do next.

  • First help when something happens

    If something isn't right, we help you assess the situation and advise on the first steps to take.

  • Guidance for your IT team and IT vendor

    Technical direction for your in-house IT staff or IT vendor, including reviewing a fix plan before the work starts.

  • Priority

    Requests from Cyber Assurance clients go to the front of our work queue.

Cyber Assurance is an advisory service. Continuous monitoring and full incident response are part of the services above. Scope and how to reach us are written into the service agreement.

How to get started

  1. Free assessment

    We check your websites, accounts and social media from the outside, then explain the results in plain language.

  2. Setup

    We connect our monitoring to your devices, email and brand channels. Access is agreed in writing and kept to what's needed.

  3. Monitoring

    We keep watch. When something looks off, we check it, handle it as agreed and let you know.

  4. Monthly report

    One report for owners and management: what happened, what we handled and what still needs fixing.

Usually this is handled by an IT vendor, or a friend who knows IT

At many Bali hotels and villas, IT is looked after by an IT vendor or a friend who knows computers. They set up the WiFi, PCs and PMS, but watching for threats, dealing with fake sites and keeping email safe every day usually isn't part of their job. SiberWisata works alongside your IT vendor, not instead of them.

A general picture of what we often see, not an assessment of any particular vendor. Every property is different.

From a single villa to a hotel group

We adapt to your size, systems and team. You don't need your own IT team.

Hotels and resorts

Front office, PMS, POS, guest Wi-Fi, booking engine and lots of staff accounts.

Villas and villa managers

Small teams, direct bookings over Instagram and WhatsApp, and owners with no time for IT.

Restaurants and beach clubs

Reservations, POS, online orders, and a name that lives on social media.

Tour and travel operators

Customer data, payments and supplier email. A favourite target for invoice fraud.

Frequently asked questions

Monitoring is continuous. Security data from your systems is collected and analysed all the time, not just during office hours.

Analyst hours, after-hours escalation and how quickly we respond are agreed per plan and written into the service agreement. We'd rather be clear about what you get than make vague promises.
