MANILA, May 20, 2022 - (ACN Newswire) - With 74 million active internet users, the Philippines has been constantly battling a rich state of cybercrime. So much so that the National Bureau of Investigation's Cybercrime Division recorded a 200 percent increase in the phishing campaigns since the country went into lockdown in March 2020.
Taking heed from the situation, Tradepass has taken the initiative to host the 2nd edition PhilSec on 12-13 July 2022 in Manila.
