The digitalization of the business environment has significantly increased security risks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the latest Global Ransomware Report 2023 by Fortinet, 84% of organizations worldwide experienced<\/strong> one or more cybersecurity breaches in the past 12 months.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Latin America and the Caribbean, the situation is similar. According to figures from Kaspersky, published in the “Threat Landscape for Latin America”<\/em> report, the region recorded an unprecedented increase in cybercriminal activity<\/strong>.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kaspersky’s data recorded 286 million attempted cyberattacks<\/strong> over the past year, representing a 617% increase compared to the previous year.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cisco’s research highlights that Brazil<\/strong> is the country in the region where companies (26%) are most prepared to face cybersecurity risks. In contrast, companies in Canada <\/strong>(9% mature stage), the United States<\/strong> (13% mature stage), and Mexico<\/strong> (12% mature stage) show low levels of readiness compared to the global average.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
