NOW Corporation and NOW Telecom Unveil a 'Respond and Replace' Program for Cybersecurity
​Three new model solutions have been introduced by the NOW Group with the goal of safeguarding vital infrastructure in important sectors of the economy that are currently at risk. These continuing efforts aim to mitigate and remedy the pervasive, unrestricted security breaches that impact both digital and physical infrastructures.​
A human-machine cybersecurity prevention program for a large enterprise, a secure and seamless integration of a digital bank's value chain that leverages office and remote workforces, and, most recently, a technology upgrade contract from an American BPO that requires complete sensor and video surveillance solutions to monitor the movement of data, objects, and people connected to its U.S. command and control headquarters—all using only trusted equipment as defined by the U.S. government—are all being implemented by NOW Corp. and NOW Telecom in collaboration.

The NOW group's "Respond and Replace" program is a response to the urgent needs of free-world governments and businesses with offices and factories in the Indo-Pacific region. These organizations need comprehensive end-to-end solutions to address threats to critical infrastructures, both digital and physical.

Recently, NOW introduced "TODAY," an acronym for "Technologies on Demand Assist You," with the express purpose of overseeing the Respond and Replace initiative. The goal of a cyber threat assessment is to find and fix weaknesses in businesses in the public and commercial sectors. Given NOW's strategic alliances with global tech giants like CISCO, Nokia, Fortinet, Mangata, OneWeb, Celona, and other technology partners in collaboration with the Philippine Military, the Cybercrime Investigation Coordinating Center (CICC), the Cagayan Economic Zone Authority (CEZA), UnionBank of the Philippines, and other organizations, a set of comprehensive solutions follows to counteract and protect against cyber threats.

NOW Telecom President Rene Rosales explains the significance of this initiative: "Deploying untrusted hardware and software including sensors and devices without rigorous vetting can open the door for unauthorized surveillance on both sensitive enterprise data and individuals, effectively turning what should be a protective measure into an unintended self-inflicted breach. With the recent breaches with some of our national government agencies, we must take action immediately."

In order to reduce the number of vulnerabilities that malicious actors could exploit, this strategic program of NOW brings together major international IT and telecom companies that support the Trusted Network effort. The program's goal is to exclusively deal with trusted vendors when constructing and maintaining telecommunications and infrastructure. Worldwide, some 180 telecom firms, including Telstra of Australia, SK Telecom & K.T. of South Korea, and about 60 countries, including the United States, United Kingdom, South Korea, Japan, Australia, and India, are a part of the Trusted Network effort. Rakuten and Softbank of Japan, Telus & Bell of Canada, and Reliance Jio of India, along with international technology partners such as Cisco, Nokia, Ericsson, and Samsung, have formed a strong coalition dedicated to safeguarding their data privacy and national security.

The Respond and Replace initiative from NOW will consist of a network of reliable international technology partners. Video security systems, sensors, handheld devices, and cloud-based enterprise endpoint devices are a few examples of this ecosystem. These partners offer high-quality, user-friendly, efficient, and manageable voice, data, and video surveillance systems by fusing plug-and-play technologies with intelligent, cloud-based architecture.

The President and CEO of NOW Corp., Henry Andrews Abes, highlights the importance of the "Respond and Replace" program: "We understand the critical nature of highly sensitive personal information, and this program protects the data integral to the functioning and trust of key industries like finance, healthcare, government services, and utility providers." Abes added, "Our initiative comes at a time when many critical sectors have untrusted vendors either within their network or their facilities, posing potential threats. The Respond  and Replace program addresses this issue head-on."

NOW welcomes government entities and enterprises to participate in this groundbreaking initiative and urges them to contact NOW immediately. The program kicks off with a Cyber Threat Assessment Program (CTAP). CTAP is a transformative initiative designed by NOW and its trusted partners to help enterprises have an in-depth analysis of their I.T. infrastructure, discover areas of vulnerabilities, and empower them to fortify against these potential malign actors.

The business will have a thorough report highlighting the advantages of its network and easily identifying its drawbacks in less than a week. The enterprise will not be charged for this assessment. Critical enterprises that are interested might visit www.todaybynow.com. Enrolling in this program and effectively putting safeguards in place to ward off bad actors allows critical infrastructure to join the ranks of international companies that uphold digital standards for safety.

​Businesses in vital sectors with cybersecurity, privacy and monitoring, data centers, and connectivity security infrastructure components from unreliable suppliers can now easily schedule the "Respond and Replace" program. This optimized platform guarantees the timely delivery of appropriate solutions and equipment from reliable suppliers to strengthen their vital infrastructure.

Organizations seeking to enhance their security framework and safeguard vital resources by substituting doubtful equipment are recommended to investigate NOW Corporation's "Respond and Replace" initiative.
