Company highlights how organizations can securely build, govern and scale AI as Saudi Arabia accelerates digital transformation
Cloudflare will showcase its vision for secure and scalable AI adoption at LEAP 2026 in Riyadh, where it plans to demonstrate how organizations can build, protect and govern AI applications as the Kingdom advances its digital transformation agenda under Vision 2030.
The company will engage with government entities, enterprises, developers and technology partners on the opportunities and challenges emerging from rapid AI adoption. At the event, Cloudflare will present its connectivity cloud platform, which combines networking, security, developer services and AI capabilities to help organizations deploy AI workloads while maintaining visibility, governance and control.
“Saudi Arabia is moving rapidly from experimenting with AI to putting it into production. AI applications need to be secure from the start, AI traffic needs to be visible and governed, and AI agents need identities and permissions just like people do,” said Ercan Aydin, Area Vice President for the Middle East, Turkey & Africa at Cloudflare.
Among the key technologies on display will be Cloudflare One for Zero Trust security, Cloudflare Workers for deploying AI applications at the edge, Firewall for AI to protect large language model applications, and AI Gateway, which provides visibility into AI traffic, models and costs. The company will also highlight AI Crawl Control, Pay Per Crawl and its growing suite of agentic AI infrastructure tools designed to help enterprises securely manage autonomous AI agents.
According to Cloudflare, one of the biggest challenges facing organizations is the lack of visibility into how AI is being used across their businesses. The company believes enterprises must treat AI agents as digital identities, applying the same levels of governance, permissions and oversight used for human users.
Cloudflare’s participation at LEAP reflects its continued investment in the Middle East as demand for AI, cloud and cybersecurity solutions grows. Visitors can meet Cloudflare’s regional team at Booth H3 C50, Hall 3, to learn how the company is helping organizations deploy secure AI workloads and strengthen digital resilience.
