These initiatives will provide cybersecurity training programs and AI-powered cybersecurity tools, helping public sector entities, businesses, and citizens.
Google announced strategic initiatives with the National Cyber and Crypto Agency (BSSN), Indonesia’s cyber defence and cybersecurity government agency, as well as nonprofits and social enterprises, to create a more resilient digital ecosystem in Indonesia.
Putri Alam, Director, Government Affairs and Public Policy, Google Indonesia, said, “For decades, cybersecurity has been an uneven playing field. Attackers need only one successful intrusion while defenders are under immense pressure to deploy the best defences at all times across an increasingly complex digital terrain. This is called the ‘Defender’s Dilemma,’ and we believe that advancements in AI can reverse this dynamic.”
“The adoption of AI-powered cybersecurity tools—combined with the skills required to use these tools—has the potential to reduce cybercrime-related costs for Indonesian businesses and individuals by up to IDR 1,365 trillion by 2030. We’re proud to be deepening our commitment toward securing and advancing Indonesia’s digital future, by collaborating with BSSN and many others on AI security training programs and delivering new capabilities for defenders,” Putri added.
These initiatives will provide cybersecurity training programs and AI-powered cybersecurity tools, helping public sector entities, businesses, and citizens to continue realising the benefits of digital transformation while protecting them against cybercrime and malicious cyber attacks.
