How BDCOM addresses challenges in the technology industry

With increasingly sophisticated cyber attacks, protecting data and networks remains a major challenge. Organisations need strong, multi-layered security to protect their operations. Growing data protection regulations require organisations to strike a balance between compliance and efficient data management. The shortage of skilled professionals in technical fields poses a challenge to maintaining a capable workforce.

To tackle cybersecurity threats, BDCOM operates its own data centres with a multilayer security system,  offering clients secure and reliable solutions. The company’s commitment to innovation is further demonstrated through its in-house IoT robotics team, which is developing smart internet services as part of its comprehensive ICT offerings.

We have also expanded our vehicle tracking solutions from basic tracking to full fleet management to support our customers’ logistics and operational efficiency.

Through these strategies, BDCOM is tackling current challenges and seizing new opportunities to drive technological advancement in Bangladesh.
