As a country the Philippines is a market that cannot be ignored for it’s potential and the evident success of it’s already dominant cloud companies.

As a result, the Cloud Computing, Cybersecurity, and Datacenter landscape are all intensifying with new entrants keen to establish their foothold in the market.

Market optimism is at an all-time high, a signal that the digital ecosystem is on the precipice of accelerated growth.

Notably there is evidence to back this optimism. The rising middle-class coupled with a local internet population of close to 70 million users indicates lasting growth in the Cloud sector. Individuals in the Philippines spend an average of 10 hours online, topping the global average.

With the country reopening, the pivot towards high speed connectivity promises to maximize this usage gap and potentially be the catalyst which will see the Philippines become a dominant force within the Southeast Asian market.

Join us at The Philippines Cloud and Datacenter Convention 2022 to be at the forefront of the discussions surrounding the game-changing developments within the industry, and capitalize on the opportunities they carry for all major players in the Philippines.

14:20Keynote: Cyber Attacks on Mission Critical Infrastructure
Critical infrastructure in data centers, healthcare, finance, aviation etc is becoming more complex and reliant on networks of connected devices. Just decades ago, power grids and other critical infrastructure operated in isolation. Now they are far more interconnected, both in terms of geography and across sectors. The vulnerability of critical infrastructure to cyber-attacks and technical failures has become a big concern. And fears have been given credence by recent events. Hackers are becoming much more interested in operational technology, the physical connected devices such as IoT devices that sits on the least secure area of network.
