Synacor today announced a partnership with digital transformation leader MDI Novare to expand adoption of Cloud ID™ consumer identity access management (“CIAM”) in the Philippines. Specifically, MDI Novare recognizes opportunities to integrate Synacor Cloud ID Media Connect into its systems integration offerings to support increasing media and entertainment bundling demand amongst telecom operators in the market, and combat mobile consumer fraud with Synacor’s Cloud ID Passkey Connect capability.

MDI Novare is a prominent leader in the Philippines’ IT landscape, driving digital transformation through strategic partnerships, technological innovation and a consistent track record of global recognition. Its expertise spans application development, infrastructure, data analytics and IT security, serving a diverse client base that includes leaders in telecommunications, financial services and the public sector.

In a region where digital fraud poses significant challenges and mobile-first experiences are dominant, Cloud ID and the newly introduced Cloud ID Passkey Connect capability offer an advanced approach to a major market need. Enabling secure, passwordless authentication, this technology addresses demand for a more robust and user-friendly digital identification process, especially in the telecommunications, and media and entertainment sectors. Synacor’s Cloud ID Media Connect offering can save MDI Novare streaming media clients months or even years of authentication integration work required to connect streaming services to various platforms.

“MDI Novare is uniquely positioned to advance digital capabilities for businesses in a range of industries, helping to enhance resiliency, agility and growth prospects as a trusted partner,” said Jeff Bak, Chief Product Officer, Synacor. “They are an ideal partner to expand adoption of Cloud ID and set the stage for transformative digital experiences in the Philippines.
