Video: Strengthening Cyber Security in the AI Era, Indonesia Needs These Solutions

The massive development of artificial intelligence (AI) technology in the era of technological transformation is considered a double-edged sword. On one hand, AI can drive efficiency and productivity, but on the other, it also increases the risk of increasingly complex and terrifying cyber attacks.

Vice President of South Asia at Fortinet, Vishak Raman, stated that AI is used very effectively by defenders in two aspects: AI for security and security for AI. However, cyber attacks in the AI era are becoming more effective on a larger scale, more complex, and with broader impacts.

Fortinet, as a developer of innovative cyber security solutions, views Indonesia’s vulnerability to cyber attacks as continuously evolving. Indonesia has experienced attacks on critical infrastructure at data centres, impacting services in immigration, finance, and health.

Therefore, in developing the digital economy amid massive cyber attacks, Indonesia needs an ecosystem and policy strengthening for the protection of data and digital infrastructure.

What are the cyber attack threats and what steps does Indonesia need to address this issue? For more details, watch the dialogue between Shafinaz Nachiar and Vice President of South Asia at Fortinet, Vishak Raman, on Profit at CNBC Indonesia (Thursday, 07/05/2026).
