According to an article published on MarketWatch on April 22 2020, the Latin America Cyber Security Market was valued at USD 12.88 billion in 2019 and is expected to reach USD 26.20 billion by 2025, at a CAGR of 13.87% over the forecast period 2020 - 2025. The adoption of cybersecurity solutions is expected to grow with the increasing penetration of the internet among the Latin American countries. Also, the expanding wireless network for mobile devices has increased data vulnerability making cybersecurity an integral part of every single organization across Latin America. In Latin America, Brazil is the most targeted country for cyber-attacks. It registered over 28% of the phishing attacks that occurred in the region and the country is followed by Guatemala with 20.34%.
According to an article posted on insightcrime.org on April 20, 2020, in Mexico, tech experts warned in an interview with El Financiero that as the workforce transitions to home offices, retail and financial sectors will be among the most targeted. Latin America has very high internet penetration but seems largely unprepared to counteract cybercrime. This means that, as governments impose stricter quarantine measures to fight back the coronavirus pandemic, individuals, corporations and critical infrastructure are vulnerable to attack.
Charity Wright, an analyst with global cyber threats firm IntSights Cyber Intelligence, said that countries with the largest economies - Brazil, Mexico, Colombia and Argentina - are the most likely to be targeted by hackers.
According to cybersecurity-insiders.com, Colombia is on the list of top 5 countries most hit by cyber espionage and Mexico is on the list of the top 6 hit by malware infection. According to insightcrime.org, online scams, ransomware attacks and phishing email schemes have proliferated in Latin America amid the coronavirus pandemic, exposing the dangers hackers pose to people, banks and governments. Latin America is largely unprepared for this new wave of cybercrime.
