Latin America Cyber Security Industry Trends & Growth Drivers:

Ransomware Diplomas: Government Bootcamps Flood the Talent Pipeline

Brazil’s Ministry of Science launched a free, nationwide “Cyber Skills Sprint” in June 2025 that enrolled 28,000 students in 90 days. The programme partners with Microsoft and Cisco to issue hands-on certifications; its first cohort already staffs SOC desks at Banco do Brasil and Nubank. Colombia followed with a $10 million Inter-American Development Bank grant to replicate the model across 20 universities. The result: average cybersecurity job vacancy duration in São Paulo fell from 120 to 72 days during Q2 2025.

Cloud-Native Mandate Turns Banks into Zero-Trust Pioneers

Mexico’s National Banking and Securities Commission (CNBV) made zero-trust architecture compulsory for all financial institutions by January 2026. BBVA México completed migration in July 2025, cutting phishing incidents by 41 % in the first 60 days. Meanwhile, Kio Networks opened a new Tier-IV data centre in Querétaro in August 2025, offering sovereign cloud encryption to 150 regional banks.

OT-IoT Attacks Drive Manufacturing to Managed Detection

Chile’s National Cybersecurity Agency recorded a 63 % rise in OT ransomware in 2024. In response, Cencosud Manufacturing signed a five-year $30 m contract with Trend Micro in June 2025 to monitor 4,000 industrial IoT endpoints across 11 plants. Early telemetry shows mean-time-to-detect dropped from 19 hours to 43 minutes.
