Saviynt will present its new Zuma platform at GISEC Global 2026, focusing on securing AI agents and non-human identities. The company aims to address the growing complexity of the identity landscape with its Enterprise Identity Cloud, providing continuous visibility and real-time authorisation for regional enterprises.
The focus comes as the identity landscape grows increasingly complex. Non-human identities already outnumber human identities by approximately 82 to one regionally and globally, according to Saviynt, with the ratio expected to continue rising as AI adoption increases. Unlike people, AI agents can be provisioned in seconds, operate continuously and behave non-deterministically, creating new challenges for traditional identity security approaches built around periodic, human-centric access reviews.
“Organizations across the Middle East are moving quickly to capture AI opportunities, fundamentally changing what they need to secure. AI agents can access applications, data and systems, make decisions and take actions at machine speed, making traditional point-in-time access controls insufficient,” said Kamel Heus, Vice President of Sales, MEA, Saviynt. “Identity therefore has to become the control plane for AI, providing continuous visibility and real-time authorization while meeting regulatory and data residency requirements. Our aim is to empower enterprises with the controls to govern human and non-human identities and scale AI adoption securely. GISEC is an important platform to engage with regional security leaders, demonstrate these capabilities and advance conversations around securing the next phase of AI adoption.”
Saviynt will also highlight its Enterprise Identity Cloud platform, which brings Identity Governance and Administration (IGA), Privileged Access Management (PAM), and Application Access and Governance (AAG) together on a single, converged code base. Attendees can gain insights into how identity can become the control plane for AI, giving companies the governance and security required to advance AI adoption without slowing innovation.
Zuma, which was launched in July will be a key priority at the event. The platform unifies AI identity security through three core capabilities. Zuma Insights continuously discovers AI agents and non-human identities across the enterprise, while Zuma Governance provides lifecycle controls, named ownership, policy guardrails and audit trails. Zuma Access provides runtime protection, including intent-aware authorization that evaluates an agent’s identity, context and intent before an action is permitted, extending the principle of zero standing privilege to AI agents.
The rise of AI agents is also coinciding with stringent regulatory and compliance requirements across the Middle East. Frameworks including the UAE Information Assurance Standards, commonly known as NESA, as well as Saudi Arabia’s SAMA and NCA controls, already mandate Identity and Access Management practices for regulated sectors. These requirements are becoming relevant to AI agents and other non-human identities, while data residency requirements continue to drive demand for locally hosted identity infrastructure.
AI agent governance is moving from a niche security concern to a business priority, along with greater convergence between identity governance, privileged access and AI governance as organizations look to replace fragmented point solutions with unified platforms capable of managing identity risk across complex environments. Saviynt is supporting this demand through its fully staffed regional entities in Dubai and Riyadh and is focused on increasing awareness of AI-driven identity threats and strengthening its regional reach through its partnership with StarLink, alongside global and local system integrators.
Visitors can meet company executives and experts at Stand P22–P25 in Hall 3, where Saviynt will host live demonstrations of Zuma and its Enterprise Identity Cloud platform. Representatives from the company will also conduct short talks emphasizing identity security and agentic AI, along with giveaways throughout the three-day exhibition.
