Saviynt, a provider of identity security solutions, is set to present its AI Identity Security capabilities at the upcoming GISEC Global 2026 in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. The company announced its participation on September 14, 2026, ahead of the event.

At the event, Saviynt plans to showcase Zuma, its newly launched enterprise AI Identity Security Platform. The platform is designed to help businesses secure and govern AI agents and other non-human identities as adoption of these technologies accelerates.

The announcement comes as the identity landscape grows more complex. According to Saviynt, non-human identities already outnumber human identities by approximately 82 to one, both regionally and globally. Moreover, this ratio is expected to keep rising as AI adoption expands. Unlike human users, AI agents can be provisioned within seconds, operate continuously, and behave non-deterministically. As a result, these characteristics create new challenges for traditional identity security approaches, which were largely 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,” said Kamel Heus, Vice President of Sales, MEA, Saviynt. “AI agents can access applications, data and systems, make decisions and take actions at machine speed, making traditional point-in-time access controls insufficient.” He added that identity therefore has to become the control plane for AI, providing continuous visibility and real-time authorization while meeting regulatory and data residency requirements. Furthermore, he noted that GISEC will offer an important platform to engage regional security leaders and advance conversations on securing the next phase of AI adoption.

In addition to Zuma, Saviynt plans to highlight its Enterprise Identity Cloud platform. This platform combines Identity Governance and Administration (IGA), Privileged Access Management (PAM), and Application Access and Governance (AAG) on a single, converged code base. Consequently, attendees are expected to gain insights into how identity can function as the control plane for AI, supporting governance and security without slowing innovation.

Zuma, launched in July, unifies AI Identity Security through three core capabilities. Zuma Insights continuously discovers AI agents and non-human identities across the enterprise. Meanwhile, Zuma Governance provides lifecycle controls, named ownership, policy guardrails, and audit trails. Zuma Access, on the other hand, delivers 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.

Meanwhile, the rise of AI agents coincides with stringent regulatory requirements across the Middle East. Frameworks such as the UAE Information Assurance Standards (NESA), along with Saudi Arabia’s SAMA and NCA controls, already mandate Identity and Access Management practices for regulated sectors. Increasingly, 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.

Overall, AI agent governance is shifting from a niche security concern to a business priority. At the same time, there is greater convergence between identity governance, privileged access, and AI governance, as organizations look to replace fragmented point solutions with unified platforms. Saviynt is supporting this demand through its regional entities in Dubai and Riyadh, and through its partnership with StarLink, alongside global and local system integrators.

Visitors will be able to meet company executives and experts at Stand P22–P25 in Hall 3, where Saviynt is scheduled to host live demonstrations of Zuma and its Enterprise Identity Cloud platform. Representatives are also expected to conduct short talks on identity security and agentic AI, along with giveaways throughout the three-day exhibition. Ultimately, Saviynt’s upcoming presence at GISEC underscores its continued focus on AI Identity Security as a growing priority for enterprises across the region.
