They are not officially Jakarta Embassy staff except the Colonel, who is the defense attache. I have a similar image of the Moscow embassy below. You will also see that even Air Force and Navy officers are there. They are not part of the Embassy staff either.

So just to clarify, they are not tasked with guarding the embassy premise? Are the defense attache' the military wing of the embassy representing the military there?

They are not guards. The defense attaché advises the ambassadors on all military matters. He is basically the defense advisor to the embassy. He can have his own staff as needed.
