Philippine Gaming Management Corporation boosts business productivity and security with Globe Business


Philippine Gaming Management Corporation(PGMC) has tapped Globe Business, the corporate information and communications technology arm of Globe Telecom, for the use of G Suite and Secure Email Gateway (SEG) to maximize business efficiency and to strengthen its cybersecurity measures respectively.

Through the partnership with Globe Business, PGMC was able to acquire G Suite licenses that allow its employees to work better together via secure and reliable workplace tools for email, calendar, text, and video chat, as well as document creation, project websites, and online storage and sync.

“This year, we availed of G Suite because we wanted to get away with the restrictions that we were experiencing with our previous email system. The migration of our corporate email to G Suite was very smooth and training was very easy. Initial troubleshooting was also very easy with the help of Globe Business--it lessened the birth pains of implementing a new system,” said Tan Eng Hwa, PGMC Vice President

Globe Business Senior Vice President Peter Maquera added: “Globe Business is all about using technology to maximize our clients’ operating efficiency which will translate to increased savings and profitability. Through G Suite and SEG, we are able to help PGMC to increase productivity, reduce information technology cost by eliminating the need to purchase and maintain servers, as well as keep their most important corporate data safe.”

A recent investigation by the National Privacy Commission (NPC) and the leading mobile wallet GCash, has led to the discovery of certain gambling sites and apps which were used for account takeovers in the recent surge of phishing scams.
