The ICT PH shift to Digital Transformation made a fundamental impact on Cybersecurity. Vulnerability is greatly increased with evolving threats as more and more sensitive data are stored in the cloud, and are accessed remotely via mobile devices.
Big Data analytics is seen as one of the major drivers of the evolution of ICT in the PH making it easier for companies to make data-driven decisions. With abundant data available, machine-learning application and artificial intelligence can be used to interpret and obtain meaningful insights for businesses.
The advantages of ICT innovations are realized with the help of the right people with the right skills. Thus, continuous bridging of skill gap among the workforce is vital in ensuring the effective integration of acquired digital technologies in the ICT PH landscape.
The greater requirement of ICT systems for energy quality calls for power systems that are robust and able to endure any disruptions to the main power systems. An increasing number of organizations then are starting to invest in reliable and alternative electrical backup systems.
