Business World Philippines
|November 04, 2025
PHILIPPINE COMPANIES should boost investments in mobile app security as cybercriminals increasingly exploit artificial intelligence (AI) tools to bypass traditional defenses, according to cybersecurity firm Appdome, Inc.
“Recent studies have shown that the Philippines is pretty much the biggest market in Southeast Asia for fraudulent activity,” Jan Sysmans, Appdome mobile app security evangelist, said in a video interview.
“In the past, security and information technology (IT) budgets focused on protecting the perimeter. In a mobile-first world, the focus has to shift to protecting the mobile business,” he added.
Filipino consumers downloaded 3.39 billion mobile apps in 2024, ranking the Philippines among the top 10 globally in app downloads and usage hours, according to a 2025 report by analytics firm SensorTower, Inc.
