Show Me My Home is a key initiative under the recently signed Joint Business Plan between P&G and Shopee

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia, June 12, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — Shopee, the leading e-commerce platform in Southeast Asia and Taiwan, and Procter & Gamble (NYSE:PG), a leading fast-moving consumer goods company, achieved strong performance for their first-ever experiential online initiative, Show Me My Home. The initiative recorded more than 15x increase in orders at peak day[1], and it is a key activation under the recently signed regional Joint Business Plan (JBP) between Shopee and P&G. The JBP marks a joint commitment between Shopee and P&G to improve the online shopping experience for users across the region, and to provide convenient and easy access to quality FMCG products on Shopee.

Chris Feng, CEO at Shopee, said, "As we transit into the new normal, e-commerce has taken on greater importance in people’s lives. Consumers are increasingly going online to fulfil their everyday needs, and it is important for businesses to remain agile and adapt quickly. The success of P&G’s online debut of the Show Me My Home initiative on Shopee is proof of that. By merging P&G’s portfolio of leading FMCG brands and retail expertise with Shopee’s wealth of insights on online shoppers’ behaviour and preferences, it allowed us to deliver a novel, experiential online home shopping experience for consumers across the region. This success has inspired us to continue innovating to provide the best for our users, and we are excited to work closely with P&G going forward."

Shoppers enjoyed greater convenience with Show Me My Home

The Show Me My Home initiative was initially an offline concept which was well-received among both consumers and retailers. With a shared vision to serve the region’s increasingly savvy digital consumers at scale, P&G leveraged Shopee’s technology expertise and insights on online shoppers to optimize and scale the experience online. Through this partnership, P&G and Shopee successfully piloted the online version of Show Me My Home, recording more than 15x increase in orders at peak day. The Show Me My Home initiative offered greater convenience as shoppers could easily find what they needed as the microsite simulated the household environment. This novel way of shopping online successfully captured shoppers’ attention with an overall increase in traffic for P&G.  

Fostering meaningful connections with Shopee’s in-app engagement features 

As people spend more time online, brands are also increasingly finding new ways to interact and engage with their consumers. As part of the Show Me My Home initiative, P&G leveraged Shopee’s engagement features to foster deeper and meaningful connections with their consumers.

  • Shopee Live: P&G tapped on Shopee Live to engage consumers with a special series of live streams featuring popular local celebrities. The biggest stars, including Yuna, Iman Azman and Preston Kaw shared with fans and Shopee users their favourite P&G products, as well as provided tips on how to use them.
  • Shopee Throw: Users visited Shopee daily to play Shopee Throw, an in-app game where users can win exclusive P&G vouchers and prizes by throwing arrows onto a target on the Shopee app. The game was played over 600,000 times in 5 days, offering added entertainment and value to consumers while they shopped for their favourite P&G brands.      

Show Me My Home marks the first of many initiatives under the recent regional JBP between Shopee and P&G. The JBP aims to better serve and capture the hearts of online shoppers in the region by providing a seamless access to P&G’s wide range of leading brands and products. This agreement will see P&G broadening its multi-brand portfolio offerings on Shopee and tapping on Shopee’s big data analytics capability to provide a personalised customer journey via precise marketing. In addition, P&G will leverage Shopee Brands Suite, a comprehensive set of support tools, such as Shopee Live, to help brand partners better reach and connect with consumers. 

"At P&G, we are continually trying new ways to personalize and engage our consumers be it offline or online. The encouraging results we have achieved from this campaign proves the partnership with Shopee to be very successful as we managed to engage more meaningfully with our consumers on digital platforms. We look forward to evolving with the customer as we work closely with Shopee to execute future innovations online, serving more regions and value-adding to digital transactions," adds Shankar Viswanathan, Vice President, E-Commerce, Asia Pacific, Middle East and Africa.

With the success of the Show Me My Home initiative, P&G and Shopee will be bringing it back on 15 June 2020, featuring another round of exclusive deals and promotions from popular P&G brands including Olay, Pantene, and Ambi Pur.

Miaozhen Systems: 31.9% of digital ad traffic was invalid in China 2019, costing the industry 28 billion RMB

BEIJING, June 12, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — A new report by Miaozhen Systems, China’s leading omni measurement and business intelligence analytics solutions provider, has found that 31.9% of all online advertising traffic in China was invalid in 2019, costing the China brand marketing industry an estimated 28 billion RMB.

The report, "China Digital Advertising Invalid Traffic Report in 2019", is the first of its kind to examine invalid traffic in new advertising formats and media. In addition to PC and mobile ads, this report analyzed the state of invalid data in NEW TV ads, offline and outdoor ads, online consumer leads, social media ads, KOL marketing, and more. With data collected from 65,000 campaigns by 2,000 brands across 1,200 platforms, it is the most accurate and comprehensive report on this subject to date.


Key findings for 2019 are summarized below:

  • Invalid traffic (IVT) made up 31.9% of all digital advertising traffic in China, up 1.7pp from 2018;
  • 39.9% of vertical media traffic was invalid; IT verticals had the highest IVT rate at 49%, up 14pp from 2018;
  • Across industries, internet and communications saw the greatest IVT increase (up 6.3pp from 2018) and suffered the highest IVT rate;
  • 10% of NEW TV ad traffic was invalid; agencies contributed the most invalid exposure;
  • 26% of all online consumer sales leads were invalid, with major implications for auto and other industries that rely on online lead collection;
  • 4.2% of outdoor advertising was invalid or not displayed;
  • 48% of social media advertising traffic was invalid. On average, 57.5% of KOL fans were invalid, with baby & mom KOLs having the highest rate of invalid fans (65.1%).

Since 2013, Miaozhen has been dedicated to the healthy development of the China digital marketing ecosystem. Besides contributing to national digital marketing industry standards, Miaozhen offers innovative, cutting-edge IVT filtration and influencer evaluation solutions to help make the industry more transparent and trustworthy. Clients who used Miaozhen’s intelligent IVT filtration solution SmartVerify had an average IVT rate of 4.7%, far lower than the 2019 average of 31.9%, and saved an estimated total of 4.5 billion RMB that would have been lost to invalid traffic.

FICO Survey: Philippine Consumers more Comfortable Opening Bank Accounts with Smartphones than Americans and British

26 percent of Filipinos prefer to open a bank account on their phone compared to 18 percent in the US and 25 percent in the UK

MANILA, Philippines, June 12, 2020 /PRNewswire/ —

Do Identity Checks by Philippine Banks Turn Away Customers?
Do Identity Checks by Philippine Banks Turn Away Customers?

Highlights:

  • The FICO Consumer Digital Banking Survey examines the preferences Filipino consumers have with digital bank account opening
  • The study found 26 percent of Filipinos prefer to open a bank account on their phone compared to 18 percent in the US and 25 percent in the UK
  • 76 percent of Filipino consumers said they would open a financial account online
  • Identity verification with too much friction could cost organizations over 40 percent of new account openings

More information: https://www.fico.com/identity

FICO, a global analytics software firm, has released its Consumer Digital Banking Survey which found Philippine consumers are more comfortable opening bank accounts on their smartphones than consumers in the US and the UK.

The study showed that 26 percent of Filipinos prefer to open a bank account on their phone, compared to 18 percent in the US and 25 percent in the UK.

"Filipino consumers are digital natives," said Subhashish Bose, FICO’s lead for fraud, security and compliance in Asia Pacific. "Around 40 percent of Filipinos have a smartphone and according to a recent study they rank in the top 10 mobile internet users globally, spending an average of 4.58 hours a day on their phones."

The study showed that digital account opening is rapidly becoming the norm in the Philippines, with 76 percent of consumers saying they would open some kind of financial account online.

Of those that would open a financial account online, 40 percent would consider doing so for an everyday transaction account, 38 percent for a credit card and 33 percent for a personal loan.

Bucking expectations, it was older consumers in the Philippines who were more likely to be leading the digital push with the youngest Filipinos being the laggards.

  • 46 percent of those over 55 years of age said they would open a bank account online
  • 40 to 45 percent of 25-34, 35-44 and 45-54 year-olds said they would do the same
  • While just 28 percent of 18-24-year-olds would open a bank account online

"The truth in the numbers here is far more nuanced," explained Bose. "Younger Filipinos are adept at using smartphones and computers, however, many do not have the required identification forms to open bank accounts at a young age, don’t have regular income or are presented with bank account options that are not appealing. For example, many bank accounts in the Philippines require a minimum balance to avoid monthly account-keeping fees.

"As consumers’ reliance on online services grows in response to COVID-19, we expect further shifts in adoption and indeed an acceleration and acceptance in opening bank accounts digitally. It is important that banks closely examine any points of friction in their application process to ensure consumers are not abandoning a process or switching to a competitor," said Bose.

Filipinos expect account opening to be fully digital

The survey found that a large percentage of Filipinos had an expectation that they should be able to complete all aspects of account opening online or on their phone.

Out of the regular identity checks needed to open an account, 67 percent of Filipinos thought they should be able to prove their identity by scanning documents or providing a selfie, 47 percent expected to prove where they live without going offline and 45 percent said they should be able to set up a biometric such as a fingerprint scan at account opening.

If all actions required to complete an account opening cannot be accomplished in-session, only 41 percent of respondents said they would carry out the necessary offline actions as soon as possible.

Around 33 percent thought they would eventually complete offline actions such as taking a phone call, posting documents, or visiting a branch. A further 13 percent said they would try a competitor while 5 percent said they would give up completely. Overall findings demonstrated that financial institutions in the Philippines that don’t facilitate a completely digital account opening experience could lose over 40 percent of their new business.

"There is research to show that only 6 to 9 percent of applicants move through the funnel and complete the process," said Bose. "Banking executives should review the application completion for authenticated versus non-authenticated applications, as well as how many applicants with saved or abandoned applications return to complete the process."

FICO’s Consumer Digital Banking Survey was produced using an online, quantitative poll of 5,000 adults (over 18) across 10 countries carried out on behalf of FICO by an independent research company. The countries surveyed were: Brazil, Canada, Germany, Malaysia, Mexico, Philippines, Sweden, UK and the USA.

Joongbu Univ. to strengthen its email security with SecuLetter

SecuLetter’s SEG responded to advanced email hacking attacks effectively.

SEOUL, South Korea, June 10, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — Joongbu University has strengthened its email security by adopting MARS SLE which is SecuLetter‘s Secure Emil Gateway(SEG) solution for intelligent email hacking attacks and successfully handled malicious code threats sent through email. SecuLetter has been a member of the Born2Global Centre since 2017.

Joongbu University
Joongbu University

SecuLetter is a security company that develops and supplies products that detect, diagnose, analyze, and prevent malicious code attacks launched via document files (MS Office, PDF etc.) and Advanced Persistent Threats (APT) in various business environments, such as Airgap and Network bridging areas, On-line bulletin boards, Document Centralization, and Content Disarm & Reconstruction (CDR). Its products eliminate security blind spots that have been a weakness of existing behavior-based (sandbox-based) APT solutions and enable accurate and swift diagnosis.

Joongbu University adopted SecuLetter’s solution for multiple reasons, primarily to: detect and analyze advanced malicious code attacks coming through e-mail, prevent malicious URLs contained in the body of emails, block unknown attacks, provide detailed reports on detected malicious code, and ensure easy installation and management.

Mr. Yeom, Jong-gook, Manager of the Joongbu University Computer Information Institute said, "In May of last year, we experienced difficulties in detecting and diagnosing large amounts of hacking emails disguised as Non-PE file attachments (MS Office or PDF), such as quotations and tax invoices. We were looking for a solution that could respond to these malicious attacks and we found out that MARS SLE is the best solution through comparative reviews and POC with several products.

Prior to adopting it, a large number of emails containing URLs leading to malicious code and phishing websites were not detected, but with MARS SLE, we could detect, diagnose, and effectively block such attacks."

Mr. Lim, Chasung, CEO of SecuLetter said, "About 90 percent or more of APT attacks are made via email and most of them are disguised as email attachments. In addition, these emails have no choice but to open attachments because they are disguising as emails from government agencies, tax invoices, quotations, resumes and recent COVID19 virus-related emails. "Through the use case of Joongbu University, we’re convinced that the university also needs to respond to these advanced email attacks. We believe our solution can be an alternative for all government agencies, financial institutions, businesses and schools that want to protect their systems and assets from hacking email attacks. And we are also actively considering fostering competent security talented students through industry-academic cooperation with schools interested in cyber security research."

SecuLetter’s products, MARS SLE and MARS SLF are being actively used by major national institutions, financial institutions, and companies including KEPCO E&C, Korea Post Information Center, KISA (Korea Internet & Security Agency), BNK Busan Bank, KAMCO (Korea Asset Management Corporation), KSD (Korea Securities Depository), and KTCU (Korean Teachers’ Credit Union).

Datrium Transforms The University of Auckland’s Data Center Infrastructure and Disaster Recovery Strategy

Leading University in New Zealand Replaces Aging Infrastructure with Datrium’s Cloud-based Disaster Recovery and Converged Infrastructure Solutions

SUNNYVALE, Calif., June 10, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — Datrium, the leader in cloud-native disaster recovery with ransomware protection, today announced that The University of Auckland in New Zealand has selected Datrium DVX and Datrium DRaaS with VMware Cloud on AWS solutions to modernize its infrastructure by leveraging the cloud and unifying compute, storage, backup and disaster recovery (DR). Challenged with aging infrastructure and an expensive and complex data center environment, the University’s infrastructure services team, supported by its Premier Partner, BEarena, an ASI Solutions company, chose Datrium for its cost-effective, easy-to-manage, VMware-centric solutions with built-in data resiliency and powerful DR capabilities. Datrium DRaaS with VMware Cloud on AWS offers flexible and scalable on-demand cloud DR with instant Recovery Time Objective (RTO), easy failover and failback without requiring VM conversions.

As New Zealand’s leading university, The University of Auckland manages two large-scale data centers that serve 40,000 students and over 5,000 staff with a core value of conserving, advancing and disseminating knowledge at a high standard through teaching, learning, research and creative work. As part of its digital transformation strategy, the infrastructure services team is embracing its agile operation model to deliver better outcomes to its users.

"As part of our digital transformation efforts, we’re modernizing critical infrastructure including our data centers to empower our IT team to work more efficiently," said Sanit Kumar, Infrastructure Services Portfolio Manager (ISPM) – Cloud, Network and Datacentre Services at The University of Auckland. "Datrium checked all our boxes. We were looking for a simplified solution that combines compute, storage, backup and disaster recovery, and aligns with VMware so we no longer require separate storage, VMware and backup teams. The power of Datrium’s converged approach and on-demand disaster recovery to VMware Cloud on AWS and instant RTO capability also brings our team major cost savings."

The University of Auckland was introduced to Datrium technology by BEarena, an ASI Solutions company. BEarena and ASI Solutions have applied their market-leading hyperconverged experience to Datrium technology to help their customers reduce cost, simplify management and move to a hybrid cloud model.

"Rather than provide the University a like-for-like replacement, we scoured the market for the best solution to achieve their business objectives. Ultimately, Datrium helped the University collapse three infrastructure silos into a single cross-functional team that uses automated management so they can focus on strategic priorities," said Country Manager Lloyd Vickery.  "Datrium has exceeded our expectations in every area—blazing performance, dramatic total cost of ownership improvements, world-class support, consolidated management—and the list goes on. I couldn’t be happier with Datrium and more proud that we are supporting The University of Auckland in continuing its achievements as a world-leading university."

BEarena and ASI Solutions are the first Datrium DRaaS Select resellers to achieve the highest level of partnership in the region. As Datrium’s first partner in ANZ and exclusive DRaaS Select partners and resellers, BEarena and ASI Solutions deliver significant cost savings, advanced operational intelligence, faster deployment times and simplified DR solutions to their customers. Lloyd Vickery is also the first Datrium DVX Certified Deployment professional in the world; achieving this distinction entails the completion of a rigorous curriculum and passing a certification test. BEarena and ASI Solutions customers benefit from working with highly skilled professionals in the deployment of Datrium to ensure they receive the fastest ROI and best customer experience.

Nathan Lowe, Managing Director of ASI Solutions added, "ASI Solutions is extremely excited to be working with Datrium. An innovative company that is transforming data lifecycle management through a single powerful platform delivering speed, agility and efficiency, Datrium allows our customers to focus on strategic initiatives."

Datrium DRaaS with VMware Cloud on AWS is a new approach to DR and offers a cloud-native design, built-in backup, instant RTO, continuous compliance and an on-demand pay-as-you-go model. Datrium DRaaS allows organizations to make the cloud their DR site at a fraction of the cost of a second data center. When combined with Datrium DVX software, organizations get the fastest recovery time and simplified data management capabilities.

"Given the enormous rise in ransomware attacks and other disasters, a modern approach to DR is critical. However, it doesn’t need to be an expensive, complicated and unreliable process," said Datrium CEO Tim Page. "With our on-demand cloud resources, The University of Auckland will be able to recover from a disaster quickly while keeping cloud costs low. We look forward to helping the University transition to cloud DR and supporting its on-premises infrastructure requirements."

Join Datrium and The University of Auckland for a webinar on June 30, at 1pm PDT to learn more.

About Datrium
Datrium, the leader in cloud-native disaster recovery with ransomware protection, automates data protection against modern threats and enables enterprises to pay for DR when they need it. Datrium Disaster Recovery as a Service with VMware Cloud on AWS (DRaaS) is an easy-to-use SaaS solution that delivers the industry’s first instant RTO cloud DR from backups on AWS S3 and protects all VMware workloads in the cloud and on-premises. Secure by design with always-on encryption, Datrium’s DR with built-in cloud backup is transforming the DR market, empowering enterprises to create their own failproof, on-demand data centers in the public cloud where they only pay for recovery when disaster strikes or for testing. Until now, DR has been a complicated and brittle manual process that needs to interact with many disparate components in the data center. The advent of the cloud has made it possible for Datrium to convert this complex process into a simple-to-use, fully automated SaaS application that delivers 10x more cost-efficient DR. By converging primary, backup, disaster recovery, mobility and encryption into a single multicloud platform called Automatrix™, Datrium maintains fast performance at any scale and enables frictionless data portability between public clouds and on-premises data centers. Data services are consistent across clouds and resource orchestration is automated so applications run at peak performance with increased system resilience and reduced data recovery windows. Liberated from managing data infrastructure, IT teams can drive more strategic initiatives for their businesses and application users can get back to productivity faster. Trusted by global enterprises including eMeter – A Siemens Business, vPay® and Stearns, Datrium is DR done right.™
