The adoption of Artificial Intelligence (AI) is no longer just a technological trend, but rather a new foundation widely used for business effectiveness and daily life. From the automation of corporate business-operational systems to data analysis, AI is utilized to enhance efficiency and effectiveness.

This phenomenon is reinforced by data collected by the Ministry of Communication and Digital (Komdigi) in the first quarter of 2026, which shows that the AI adoption rate in Indonesia has reached 92% in terms of utilization for national productivity.

However, behind the increasingly sophisticated development of AI, various cybercrime threats are also evolving by utilizing AI itself. The latest threat currently in the spotlight among various cybersecurity industry players is the emergence of Dark AI.

Kaspersky, a global cybersecurity company, explains that Dark AI refers to the application of unrestricted local or remote large language models (LLMs) in a full framework or chatbot system used for malicious, unethical, or unauthorized purposes. This system operates outside the control of standard security, compliance, or governance, which often enables capabilities such as fraud, manipulation, cyberattacks, and unsupervised data abuse.

PT Jalin Pembayaran Nusantara (Jalin), as a digital enabler of the national digital payment system, pays special attention to the development of cybercrimes weaponized by AI.

Aries Fajar Kurnia, SVP of Infrastructure & Security Management at Jalin, shared his insights regarding this phenomenon during a Security Operation Center (SOC) presentation held alongside companies within the Danareksa SOE (State-Owned Enterprise) Holding ecosystem.

According to him, proactive measures are needed to prevent attacks from occurring within a company's cyber defense ecosystem. "We take the initiative through monitoring, analyzing, and detecting suspicious activities in the company's systems and networks to help prevent potential cyberattacks. By utilizing AI automation, we consider these efforts to be more effective in combatting potential crimes that currently also heavily use AI," said Aries.

In its role as a SOC, Jalin ensures the resilience of the entire IT system infrastructure owned by each company against cybercrime threats, aiming to create reliable IT governance within the Danareksa SOE Holding ecosystem. By operating the Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) platform, Jalin ensures real-time and centralized protection for every threat detection and necessary escalation.

Jalin's experience in maintaining cybersecurity within the Danareksa SOE Holding ecosystem has proven its capacity to provide efficient services to strengthen IT infrastructure resilience. Armed with this track record, Jalin continues to expand its role in helping companies from various sectors build reliable cyber defenses through the concept of shared services and infrastructure.
