In a recent media roundtable event held in Hanoi, CDNetworks, the leading edge-as-a-service provider in the Asia-Pacific region, outlined its strategic blueprint for fortifying its foothold in Vietnam. This expansion initiative includes bolstering local network infrastructure, forging essential partnerships, and reinforcing cloud security measures, marking a pivotal move in empowering Vietnam’s digital transformation.
CDNetworks, a trailblazer in edge-as-a-service solutions across the Asia-Pacific region, has unveiled an ambitious plan for expanding its local presence in Vietnam. This move comes on the heels of a dynamic media roundtable event held in Hanoi, where CDNetworks announced its commitment to advancing the digital landscape of the country.
Enhanced Infrastructure for Comprehensive Coverage and Cybersecurity
Up until now, CDNetworks has strategically established a robust network of Points of Presence (PoPs) throughout Vietnam, with a particular focus on pivotal locations like Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi. Furthermore, CDNetworks has inked partnerships with four out of the top five Internet Service Providers (ISPs) in Vietnam, ensuring a seamless, 100% coverage of the local network. This strategic move is tailored to meet the distinctive needs of various industries, ultimately guaranteeing an exceptional user experience across the nation.
In a bid to provide impeccable live streaming and high-quality viewing experiences, CDNetworks has solidified collaborations with esteemed local entities such as ON VTVCab, VSTV K+, and Tera Group. These partnerships underline CDNetworks’ unwavering commitment to delivering top-tier digital experiences to Vietnamese audiences.
As Vietnam’s cybersecurity landscape grows increasingly complex, CDNetworks has taken proactive steps to enhance its cloud security measures. This year, CDNetworks has inaugurated two state-of-the-art scrubbing centers in Ho Chi Minh City, fortifying its capacity to fend off Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks. These centers, strategically positioned in close proximity to the market, empower CDNetworks to swiftly and effectively mitigate DDoS threats, guaranteeing the security and stability of its clients’ web assets and network infrastructure. These scrubbing centers complement CDNetworks’ existing global anti-DDoS network, comprising over 20 scrubbing centers with a cumulative capacity of 15 terabits per second (Tbps).
Mr. Phan Linh, Country Manager of CDNetworks Vietnam, commented, “Vietnam’s rapid digital transformation is undeniable. The 28% growth in Gross Merchandise Value (GMV) in 2022 and the surge to 74 million internet users signify a nation embracing the digital age. At CDNetworks, we see our role as more than just service providers. We’re here to support and amplify this digital momentum. By expanding our local infrastructure with additional Points of Presence (PoPs) and scrubbing centers, we are now able to assist Vietnam’s businesses in migrating their on-premises operations to the cloud, thereby enhancing reliability and operational efficiency.”
Elevated Local Support and Security Services
In a significant move to empower the digital transformation of Vietnamese businesses, CDNetworks has substantially bolstered its local team since 2022. This expansion enables CDNetworks to provide round-the-clock, localized customer support with unparalleled expertise. With this dedicated local support team, organizations can seamlessly access CDNetworks’ extensive array of services, spanning basic onboarding and configuration assistance, as well as advanced services tailored to specific needs. This ensures that businesses can navigate their digital journey without grappling with the intricacies of day-to-day operations.
Furthermore, the launch of CDNetworks’ Web Application and API Protection (WAAP) solution marks an upgraded security service tailored to the Vietnamese market. This comprehensive solution safeguards organizations’ web applications and APIs throughout the entire attack process. Vulnerability Scanning Service and Penetration Testing, offered prior to an attack, allow organizations to identify and rectify potential vulnerabilities, fortifying their defenses. During an attack, organizations can rely on robust network resources, up-to-date threat intelligence, and extensive experience in security protection rules configuration to minimize the impact of the attack. After an attack, organizations can analyze and optimize their defenses through services like Professional Reporting Service, enhancing their readiness for future security threats.
Mr. Vo Luan, Senior Solution Architect at CDNetworks Vietnam, remarked, “From expanding our infrastructures to upgrading our local support and security services, CDNetworks is dedicated to empowering Vietnam’s digital growth. With a focus on expanded coverage, reliable content delivery, and robust cybersecurity measures, we aim to be a trusted partner for Vietnamese companies as they navigate the digital landscape. In the future, we will continue to organize or participate in various seminars, workshops, and activities held by 3rd party organizations and industry associations to facilitate extensive communication with Vietnamese companies. Through these communications, we believe businesses can finally discover how CDNetworks’ solutions can strengthen their online performance and improve security posture.”
CDNetworks’ visionary blueprint in Vietnam signifies its commitment to advancing the nation’s digital ecosystem and securing a pivotal role in the country’s ongoing digital transformation.
