↑ 0%Identity may become as fundamental to AI infrastructure as compute and cloud. As Indian enterprises embrace AI, Ping Identity views digital identity as essential for securely scaling AI and managing regulatory demands. Smruthi Nadig · AUGUST 3, 2026, 5:00 PM · Updated AUGUST 3, 2026, 6:11 PM Key Takeaways What actually matters. Digital identity is becoming essential for securely scaling AI and managing regulatory demands in Indian enterprises. The Indian government has introduced a tax holiday for foreign AI service providers to encourage local data centre establishment. India's race to build AI infrastructure has largely centred on GPUs, cloud capacity, and hyperscale data centres. But as enterprises move AI from pilot projects into production, having a secure digital identity is becoming indispensable. One of the solutions is using local data centre infrastructure, and to facilitate that, the government announced a 21-year tax holiday to foreign cloud and AI service providers in return for setting up data centres in the country. One of the players moving in is enterprise identity security provider Ping Identity, which has launched a new data centre in Mumbai, allowing organisations to host supported identity workloads locally while reducing latency and strengthening governance over digital identities. Hosted in Google Cloud's Mumbai region, the deployment also supports customers' data residency preferences as businesses navigate India's evolving privacy landscape and the Digital Personal Data Protection (DPDP) Act. "Customers realise it is not just about protecting data. It is about understanding who is accessing it, how it is being used, maintaining accountability and having evidence of every movement of that data," comments Jasie Fon, Regional Vice President of Asia, Ping Identity, in a conversation with AIM. Ping Identity, which was founded in Denver, US, in 2002, now considers India as among the fastest-growing strategic markets, driven by increasing enterprise AI adoption, stricter governance requirements, and rising demand for trusted digital infrastructure. Why India, why now? For Ping Identity, opening a local data centre is the culmination of a strategy that began well before the latest AI boom. Fon says the company deliberately chose India as a growth market because enterprise identity was becoming increasingly critical as organisations digitised their operations. "When I continued to engage with customers in India, one thing that kept coming up was data residency requirements, particularly from highly regulated industries," she highlights. The company employs around 300 people in India across engineering, product development and customer support, with the new Mumbai deployment extending that long-term investment. The greatest pull has been the DPDP Act, as many enterprises are now recognising that identity governance offers an opportunity to modernise how access to critical systems and data is managed. Identity becomes AI's trust layer. While identity has traditionally focused on securing employees and customers, the rapid rise of AI agents is fundamentally changing its role. According to Deloitte's 2026 State of AI in the Enterprise report, 40% of Indian organisations report significant or full AI usage, compared with a global average of around 28%. As AI becomes embedded in enterprise operations, organisations must govern not only people but also autonomous software agents. Whether an AI agent is approving a bank loan, accessing sensitive patient records, or resetting customer passwords, enterprises need visibility into what information it can access, what actions it can perform, and whether those actions remain appropriately governed throughout its lifecycle, she says. That, Fon believes, elevates identity from a traditional security function to a foundational component of AI infrastructure. "We see identity becoming the foundation, the trust layer of AI," Fon says. "You need traceability, auditability, and governance. If an AI agent goes rogue, you need human oversight and the ability to intervene." Ping Identity describes this approach as providing a continuous "trust layer" through its Runtime Identity platform, which verifies identity, context, and intent across customers, employees, partners, and non-human entities. Governance shifts beyond IT. AI is also changing who builds technology inside enterprises. Fon says innovation is increasingly originating from business functions rather than central IT teams, with departments deploying their own AI agents to automate everyday tasks. While this democratisation of AI accelerates innovation, it also introduces governance risks if organisations lack consistent identity controls. Rather than tying identity to individual AI development platforms, Ping advocates a universal identity layer capable of recognising and governing AI agents regardless of where they are created. "It shouldn't matter which platform you use to develop your agents," Fon says. "Identity sits within the organisation's infrastructure and should recognise every agent, assign appropriate roles and define what they can read, write and execute." She describes identity as becoming the "control plane" that provides visibility, authentication, authorisation, and governance across enterprise AI environments. India's strategic role grows. Beyond customer demand, India is also becoming increasingly important to Ping Identity's global operations. Alongside serving enterprise customers, the company's Bengaluru engineering centre contributes to product development and innovation. "I think India will continue to be very strategic, not just from a revenue point of view, but also from our R&D and engineering capability perspective," Fon says. Looking ahead, she expects AI to accelerate enterprise identity adoption even further. While many international markets initially focused on customer identity, she observes that Indian organisations are currently prioritising workforce and enterprise identity as they prepare for large-scale AI deployments.
Ping Identity has added its patient identity verification and fraud protection tools to Epic Toolbox for MyChart healthcare platforms. The solution combines identity verification using government-issued ID and biometric matching with real-time fraud detection to secure patient account creation and recovery. The platform includes three core capabilities: identity verification through document and biometric checks, threat detection for synthetic identities and account takeover attempts, and no-code orchestration that dynamically adjusts security responses based on risk levels. The system is designed to integrate with existing MyChart-connected healthcare systems without requiring infrastructure replacement. Ping Identity's approach uses minimal data collection and supports rapid deletion of personally identifiable information following verification, helping healthcare organisations meet HIPAA compliance requirements. The solution aims to reduce fraud whilst maintaining streamlined patient access experiences.
Ping Identity launches India data centre to drive AI innovation. July 21, 2026 15:00 IST Ping Identity, an enabler in securing digital identities for the world's largest enterprises, has launched its India data centre capability. The new deployment builds on Ping's long-term investment in India, one of the world's fastest-growing digital economies, and brings trusted identity infrastructure closer to organisations across the region. The India data centre is hosted in Google Cloud's Mumbai region and enables enterprises to host supported identity workloads locally, help reduce application latency, and strengthen governance over digital identities. It also supports customers' data residency preferences while helping them navigate India's evolving privacy and regulatory landscape. "India is one of the world's fastest-growing digital economies, and data residency and identity governance have become increasingly important priorities for organisations across the country," said Jasie Fon, Regional Vice President, Asia, Ping Identity. "Our India data centre reflects Ping's long-term commitment to India and gives customers the local infrastructure they need to innovate with confidence as AI becomes central to their business." AI is moving from experimentation into production across Indian enterprises, increasing the need for trusted identity across every digital interaction. According to Deloitte's 2026 State of AI in the Enterprise report, 40% of Indian organisations report significant or full AI usage, compared with a global average of approximately 28%, underscoring the pace at which businesses are operationalising AI. Enterprises now need to know not only who is accessing systems and data, but also what AI agents are authorised to do, what information they can access, and how every interaction is governed. Supporting India's evolving regulatory landscape. Organisations across India are placing greater emphasis on privacy, governance and operational resilience amid an evolving privacy and regulatory landscape. Many are looking for technology partners that can support those efforts while helping them navigate evolving regulatory requirements. The India deployment helps organisations: Host supported identity workloads locally to support internal governance and business requirements Strengthen privacy-by-design, consent management, access controls and auditability across digital identity journeys Improve application performance and user experience through lower-latency local hosting Accelerate cloud identity adoption while maintaining security, resilience and operational control Support secure identity for AI applications and AI agents Identity: The Trust Layer for AI India is rapidly emerging as one of the world's leading AI innovation hubs, supported by a strong technology ecosystem, engineering talent and government investment in digital infrastructure. AI is becoming embedded in customer experiences, workforce operations and business processes across every industry. Identity provides the trust layer that enables those systems to operate securely, transparently and with accountability. Ping's enterprise identity platform secures identities across customers, employees, partners and non-human entities. Runtime Identity(TM) continuously verifies identity, context and intent at every interaction, giving enterprises the visibility and policy controls needed to govern people, applications and AI agents consistently across digital environments. Together, local hosting capabilities and Runtime Identity help enterprises build AI-powered services that are secure by design, governed by policy and designed to support evolving privacy expectations and the principles of the Digital Personal Data Protection (DPDP) Act. Expanding Ping Identity's commitment to India. The India data centre builds on Ping's long-standing investment in the country. The company has an established engineering and development presence in Bengaluru, with approximately 300 employees supporting global product innovation, engineering and customer success, alongside a growing go-to-market organisation supporting customers across India. The new deployment gives enterprises the identity infrastructure they need to modernise digital experiences, support compliance initiatives and securely scale AI initiatives.
