The wave of artificial intelligence (AI) adoption, cloud computing technology, and hybrid work trends is forcing the corporate sector to revamp their digital transformation strategies. Today, identity security is no longer just an add-on, but has become a crucial foundation for protecting corporate assets from increasingly complex cyber threats.
In this modern digital landscape, the Zero Trust approach has become the primary security standard. This concept requires every entity—whether users, devices, or systems—to undergo a strict verification process before gaining access. This is viewed as the most relevant line of defense for organizations looking to leverage technological advancements without ignoring security aspects.
This crucial topic of access governance will be a key highlight at the upcoming World AI Show Indonesia 2026, scheduled for July 7–8 in Jakarta. On this occasion, Primary Guard, in collaboration with JumpCloud, plans to introduce an identity security solution specifically designed to safeguard AI implementation in business operations.
CEO of Primary Guard, Johary Mustapha, assesses that Indonesia has great potential to grow as an AI ecosystem hub in Southeast Asia. However, he emphasized that this grand ambition must be supported by robust identity security. Today's challenges are not just about human users, but include devices, service accounts, to AI agents that now play an increasing role in automated business processes.
As a solution, Primary Guard will showcase 'Agentic Identity and Access Management' (Agentic IAM) technology. This concept expands the scope of identity management to the level of AI agents, enabling more comprehensive governance. This innovation integrates various aspects such as access management, data protection, and regulatory compliance into a single unified platform to ensure company operations remain secure and sustainable amid future technological advancements.
