00:00Not only is Bantay closed, Comelec also promised that it will not be affected by calamity.
00:05They will also use a data center in the election of 2025.
00:09We have the first news, Sandra Aguinaldo.
00:16The Commission on Elections or Comelec visited the two data centers that it will use for the 2025 national and local elections.
00:25The camera did not capture it, but it was shown to the media, the facility of the vitro data center of the EPLDT.
00:32The data of one of the elections will be inspected and monitored here.
00:37It has a tight security and design so that it will not be affected by earthquakes, floods, and typhoons.
00:43It also has a cooling system and power supply so that the Comelec server will not get damaged.
00:49Our purpose here is to provide faster access and results to everyone, but it should be secure.
00:55No one should enter the servers because those servers are very sensitive.
01:01If that is compromised, the entire election will be compromised.
01:07But we are taking a giant step here.
01:10We would like to emphasize to everyone that we are showing this not because we are afraid, but because the people deserve information.
01:18All of the data that will be transmitted for the election returns, the certificates of canvas,
01:26will be downloaded to our central server that is housed here in the vitro.
01:34It also has a network management system through which all of the IP addresses will be monitored.
01:44The Comelec assured that they are on schedule to prepare for the May 12 elections.
01:48The registration of voters will end on September 30.
01:52The certificates of candidacy that will run from October 1 to 8 will be filed.
01:57This is the repository of the results of the data.
02:00But the news of who won, the information of who won,
02:07we will all know at the same time in real time.
02:12No one can guess.
02:14I hope you will all join us here.
02:18The Comelec Legal Department is expecting the decision of the preliminary investigation of Dismissed Mayor Alice Guo for the complaint of material misrepresentation on Friday.
02:28There are other ways to face such a complaint in Comelec.
02:32The media asked Comelec, can Guo file a candidacy?
02:37Everyone who will file a candidacy in the upcoming election,
02:41Comelec will accept their certificates of candidacy.
02:45If it will be put on canvas, that's another story.
02:48This is the first news.
