PNP ACG

The Philippine National Police Anti-Cybercrime Group (PNP-ACG) has strengthened its drive against digital financial crimes with the launch of its Cybersecurity and Fintech Handbook and the renewal of its partnership with GCash. The PNP-ACG and GCash renewed their Memorandum of Agreement (MOA), first signed in 2022, which established a framework for cooperation on cybersecurity awareness, capability-building, and information sharing. “Financial technology continues to evolve, and with it, the methods used by cybercriminals,” said Miguel Geronilla, Chief Information and Security Officer at GCash, “We at GCash are honored to support the PNP-ACG in enhancing the capabilities of law enforcers through education. Yang, Director of the PNP-ACG states: “These initiatives are a collective step forward in our continuing effort to protect Filipinos in the digital space. Through strategic collaborations and timely learning tools, we are building a law enforcement force that is ready to address today’s emerging cyber threats.” Other key officials present at the ceremonial event were PNP ACG Chief Investigative Officer PCol Jay D. The handbook will be rolled out to regional units via virtual assemblies and video modules, aligning with the PNP’s ongoing modernization strategy and the national government’s National Cybersecurity Plan (NCSP) 2023–2028.
