Sunday, October 5, 2025


A Strong Alliance for a Safer Digital Future

As businesses across the Philippines continue to digitize, cybersecurity has become more critical than ever. To address this growing need, Eastern Communications—one of the country’s premier telecommunications providers—has partnered with Nexusguard, a global leader in Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) mitigation and cloud-based security solutions.

The partnership was officially unveiled at Manila House in Taguig City on September 25, 2025, bringing together tech leaders, government representatives, and industry partners for an exclusive event that marked a significant milestone in the nation’s digital resilience journey.

Reinforcing Philippine Cybersecurity

This collaboration merges Eastern’s robust infrastructure and local expertise with Nexusguard’s cutting-edge Bastions Technology, a proprietary system that protects businesses from evolving cyber threats. Together, they aim to deliver comprehensive, scalable, and reliable protection for enterprises, government agencies, and service providers across the country.

“We are proud to partner with Eastern Communications to extend our mission of safeguarding businesses from evolving cyber threats,” said Andy Ng, CEO of Nexusguard. “With Nexusguard Bastions Technology, Philippine organizations can now access world-class protection that ensures business continuity and peace of mind.”

For Eastern Communications, this partnership reflects its commitment to evolve alongside its customers’ needs in an increasingly digital-first environment.

“By joining forces with Nexusguard, we’re reinforcing our promise to provide not just reliable connectivity, but also world-class security,” shared Atty. Aileen Regio and Jaeson Evangelista, Co-Coordinators of Eastern Communications.

Introducing DDoS-Protected Eastern IDS

The collaboration launched the DDoS-Protected Eastern IDS (Internet Direct Service)—a premium, high-speed, dedicated internet solution built for business continuity and productivity. Powered by fiber-leased line technology, this service offers symmetrical upload and download speeds of up to 10 Gbps, ensuring round-the-clock secure connectivity.

More than just fast internet, it’s a cyber-secure solution that shields organizations from disruptions caused by DDoS attacks, allowing them to operate confidently even in the face of cyber threats. Backed by resilient global backbone access, the DDoS-Protected IDS aligns perfectly with Eastern’s “High Tech, High Touch” philosophy—delivering both advanced technology and personalized service.

Strengthening Digital Resilience for the Future

The event also featured a symbolic partnership launch, awards presentation, and industry networking that emphasized the growing need for cybersecurity amid the Philippines’ rapid digital transformation. The timing was fitting—as the partnership debuted ahead of National Cybersecurity Month in October, reinforcing the message of vigilance and collaboration in protecting the nation’s digital economy.

Through this alliance, Eastern Communications and Nexusguard are paving the way for a more secure and connected Philippines, ensuring that enterprises large and small can thrive in the digital era without fear of disruption.

This partnership sets a new standard for corporate cybersecurity in the Philippines. With Eastern’s local reliability and Nexusguard’s global expertise, businesses now have the tools to stay connected, protected, and future-ready.
