Globe Telecom said Executive Order No. 119, signed by President Ferdinand R. Marcos, Jr. on July 13, provides a framework for protecting sensitive government information while enabling agencies to adopt cloud technologies, according to a BusinessWorld report.
The order establishes an updated government data classification system and introduces data security measures aimed at strengthening the cybersecurity posture of state agencies. Globe noted that the directive supports the government's digital transformation agenda by balancing security needs with the continued use of cloud services.
As a key telecommunications provider to the Philippine government, Globe's endorsement underscores the importance of clear data governance rules. The company has been actively involved in providing secure connectivity and cloud solutions to various government agencies.
