Singtel and Globe Telecom, Wednesday launched Trustwave Managed Security Services to help enterprises in the Philippines protect against cyber attacks.
The services are delivered through Globe’s Advanced Security Operations Centre (ASOC) in Manila, a new facility operated by Trustwave, Singtel’s global leading managed security services subsidiary.
The launch of the services through the ASOC advances the MoU which Singtel and Globe had signed in December 2015 to strengthen Globe’s information security capabilities.
Under the strategic partnership, Singtel and Globe have formed an ecosystem with leading global cyber security providers including Trustwave, Palo Alto Networks, FireEye and Arbor to deliver managed security services through the Globe ASOC. These managed security services include vulnerability assessment; network security; application security and content security; endpoint security, and access control and security management.
Trustwave Managed Security Services help businesses address advanced information security threats while alleviating the pressures created by resource constraints, skills shortages, compliance requirements and the rapid adoption of new technologies. The services provide the security businesses need without requiring them to install and manage technologies themselves, to retain and train staff to run and configure those systems, or to worry about aging levels of protection.
Bill Chang, CEO, Group Enterprise at Singtel and Chairman of Trustwave
As the leading cyber security services provider in the region, our deep global capabilities allow Trustwave Managed Security Services to monitor, assess and defend our customers’ operations round-the-clock against cyber attacks.

When privacy is breached, it doesn’t only compromise information but it also puts businesses and individuals at risk in so many ways. So we knew that there was clearly a need to build a dedicated facility to help solve this as cyber security is becoming a primary concern of the public and private sectors, as well as consumers as a whole.
