TrendAI builds local data centre to support cybersecurity

Jakarta (ANTARA) - Cyber security company TrendAI has launched a local data centre in Indonesia to support its artificial intelligence (AI)-based cyber security platform, TrendAI Vision One.

TrendAI Indonesia Country Manager Fetra Syahbana said the presence of the data centre is part of the company’s commitment to developing the Indonesian market while complying with regulations on domestic data management.

“Indonesia is a potential market. That is why we follow the applicable rules, including establishing a data centre in Indonesia,” Fetra said at a media gathering in Jakarta on Monday.

“If previously people may not have thought much about speed, now with AI, companies’ ability to secure their assets is also demanded to be ever faster, because with AI everything runs faster,” he said.

The data centre launch also aligns with the rebranding of Trend Micro’s enterprise business identity to TrendAI in March 2026.

According to Fetra, the local infrastructure helps customers comply with the Personal Data Protection Law (UU PDP) as well as the cyber security and data localisation guidelines of the Financial Services Authority (OJK) for the financial services sector.

TrendAI is targeting the service for use by government agencies, the telecommunications industry, critical infrastructure sectors and financial services institutions, including more than 135 banks under OJK supervision.

“There are three pillars when we talk about this data centre. First, data residency, so data does not leave Indonesia. Second, compliance with various regulations. Third, our services become faster and more reliable for customers in Indonesia,” said Fetra.
