Bitdefender, a global cybersecurity leader, and Gema Informatika Abadi (PT GIA) today announced an exclusive distribution partnership to deliver powerful home cybersecurity offerings to Indonesian consumers. The agreement makes Bitdefender’s complete consumer portfolio available nationwide through PT GIA’s extensive reseller network and arrives at a time when threats to personal data, identity, and privacy are escalating, fueled by increasingly sophisticated AI-driven attacks.

“Consumers now bank, shop, and stay connected with friends online, making the protection of personal data and identity critical,” said Mr. Chok, director at PT GIA. “We are pleased to partner with Bitdefender to give Indonesians access to trusted, advanced protection against evolving cyber threats. Bitdefender’s record of innovation and proven security performance makes it the ideal partner as we expand our offerings across the country.”

In Indonesia, 66% of adults encountered a scam in the past year, according to the Global Anti-Scam Alliance. The pattern holds globally, where a survey of 7,000 consumers found one in seven fell victim to a scam over the same period. Mobile devices remain a particular weak point in that research: nearly half of respondents (48%) do not run a third-party security solution on their phone, even though 53% use those devices for sensitive activity such as bill payments and online shopping.

The agreement puts comprehensive protection within easier reach. PT GIA will carry the full Bitdefender consumer portfolio, spanning computer and mobile device security, identity protection, privacy, anti-scam tools, and deepfake detection technology. Available in plans for both individuals and families, these solutions defend against malware, phishing, online scams, identity theft, and other threats at home or on the go.

Bitdefender consumer solutions earn consistent recognition from third-party testing organizations, industry analysts, and respected media. The company was named a Leader in the IDC MarketScape: Worldwide Consumer Digital Life Protection 2025 Vendor Assessment and has earned Best Protection for Windows, Best macOS Security, and Best Android Security awards from AV-TEST.

Building on that track record, AI-powered security and anti-scam protection will feature prominently in the companies’ joint marketing, reflecting how AI-enhanced social engineering campaigns have become a primary path for cybercriminals to steal information and commit fraud.

“Cybercriminals are using AI to run convincing scam campaigns at scale and spread malware, putting consumers at greater risk,” said Ciprian Istrate, senior vice president of operations, Bitdefender Consumer Solutions Group. “Bitdefender and PT GIA share a commitment to public safety online, and we are excited to work together. Indonesia has one of the world’s largest and fastest-growing digital economies, and Bitdefender’s protection combined with PT GIA’s reach will help millions of consumers stay safe wherever their digital lives take them.”

Bitdefender consumer solutions are available through PT GIA at brick-and-mortar retailers and online marketplaces nationwide.
