LET ‘S BE HONEST: the age of OTPs has gone on long enough. How many times have we fumbled through texts, squinted at six-digit codes, or fallen victim to that classic scammer line—“Sir, pa-send po ng OTP”? In a digital world where criminals move faster than our thumbs, something had to change. Thankfully, PLDT Enterprise and global tech enabler Nabstract have stepped into the arena with a tag-team move worthy of a cybersecurity smackdown: SmartSafe SilentAccess.
If OTPs were the rusty padlocks of old-school digital security, Silent Access is the smart, sleek fingerprint scanner that doesn’t just lock the door—it reads your intentions. This flagship security tool from the soon-to-launch SmartSafe API suite quietly (and instantly!) authenticates users straight through Smart’s network. No texts. No codes. No cybercriminals lurking in the corner. Just seamless, invisible security that works before you even think about it.
The brains and builders behind this partnership lined up for the official handshake moment, including PLDT Enterprise’s top product strategists and innovators—Mark Dommel Geronimo, Mickey Ruiz, John Gonzales, Noemi Santos, and the rest of the powerhouse team—alongside Nabstract’s director and founder, Vaibhav Mehta, the mastermind behind the intent-based network strategy that makes SilentAccess tick.
And Nabstract isn’t just another tech partner with a fancy acronym. Through their expertise in network exposure and GSMA Open Gateway-compliant APIs, they’re giving businesses—from banks battling fraud to e-commerce platforms fighting cart abandonment—the kind of superpower every modern enterprise dreams of: real-time intelligence with zero friction.
“Future-proof” is an overused buzzword, but for once it actually fits. With Smart’s Service Exposure Platform built deep into the network and PLDT Enterprise’s newly-earned GSMA Open Gateway Certification, SilentAccess isn’t just a security upgrade—it’s a paradigm shift. It’s the country’s telcos saying: We can outsmart the scammers. And we will.
Nico Alcoseba, PLDT Enterprise’s First Vice President and Head of Product Management, puts it plainly: this is PLDT Enterprise doubling down on innovation, security, and trust. Because in an age where fraud evolves by the minute, you don’t just react—you reinvent.
Meanwhile, Nabstract’s Vaibhav Mehta calls the partnership a pivotal leap toward scalable, secure, and future-ready API solutions. Translation? Businesses finally get a weaponized shield against fraud without sacrificing user experience. A rare, beautiful win-win.
And here’s the best part: this milestone isn’t just about smarter logins. It supports broader goals—strengthening digital trust, enabling safer financial inclusion, and contributing to the UN SDGs by building a digital economy that’s not only connected, but protected.
Silent. Seamless. Scam-proof.
