Rang-Ay Bank, one of the oldest banks in the Philippines, partnered with PLDT Enterprise to strengthen the cybersecurity of their online and mobile banking.
Rang-Ay Bank enrolled Vulnerability Management as-a-Service (VMaaS) through ePLDT to their mobile applications, database server, core banking system, mobile banking server, and payment hub server.
Commitment to customers
Mitch Locsin, the first vice president and head of Enterprise and International Business Groups, at PLDT and Smart, said that deploying VMaaS is ultimately all about their commitment to customers.
“As technologies continue to evolve and industries continue to transform, this service allows us to empower our partners with secure and reliable solutions to help them propel their business visions. In any customer journey, it’s all about empathy, purpose, and commitment, which is basically the mantra of industries today. With services like VMaaS, we fully support Rang-Ay’s vision for a secure financial sector,” he says.
“We at Rang-Ay Bank are very excited about this continuing transformative partnership, one that promises to completely change and enhance the way rural financial institutions approach cybersecurity and technological resilience…Now, more than ever, we need to have more holistic cybersecurity because the world is growing more and more digitally interconnected, and the advancement of technology means equally advanced threats. This partnership is a testament to our commitment against the rising tide of cyber risks,” says Ives Nisce, Rang-Ay Bank Chairman.
Nisce adds that they feel they are in good hands with PLDT Enterprise and ePLDT as the pioneer in telecommunications and digital services in the Philippines.
