Globe Telecom and Amazon Web Services (AWS) have reaffirmed their joint commitment to accelerating the Philippines’ digital transformation, as both companies addressed growing concerns over data sovereignty and the localization of cloud infrastructure in the country.
Converge ICT Solutions co-founder and CEO Dennis Anthony Uy has called on both the Philippine government and private enterprises to adopt sovereign cloud technologies to safeguard national interests and ensure full control over sensitive Filipino data amid the country’s rapid digital transformation.
In the absence of an actual law on data sovereignty, the Department of Information and Communications Technology (DICT) is preparing a circular that will require the localization of sensitive sovereign data in the Philippines.
