Mexico Cybersecurity 2025

Inside Mexico’s Rapid Descent Into Latin America’s Most Targeted Cyber Zone

Mexico now accounts for 55% of Latin America’s cyberattacks, with cartels, state-sponsored actors, and insider failures driving rapid escalation. With 97% of organizations reporting breaches in 2024, defenders are replacing fragmented toolchains with Seceon’s AI-powered platform, gaining sub-2-minute detection, cartel-versus-APT differentiation, bilingual regional intelligence, and real-time protection across IT, OT, and cloud environments, automated containment and continuous compliance controls.

A Quick Glimpse Inside the Whitepaper:

This whitepaper shows how Mexico, now absorbing fifty-five percent of Latin America’s attacks, is facing cartel-driven cybercrime, nation-state intrusion, and OT exposure at an unprecedented scale, prompting a shift toward unified AI security for fast, automated detection.

Here’s what makes it worth your time:

  • A fast-rising threat landscape driven by cartel-led extortion, AI deepfakes, regional banking malware, and coordinated activity from China, Iran, Russia, and North Korea.
  • Real-world impact, including thousands of CFE grid incidents, fintech compromises, large-scale leaks like the 701-GB “Inferno Leaks,” and widespread insider-driven breaches.
  • Unified SIEM, XDR, SOAR, UEBA, threat intelligence, and OT security protecting Mexico’s expanding IT, OT, cloud, telecom, and nearshoring ecosystems.
  • Deep OT/ICS visibility across 70+ industrial protocols to detect early signs of grid targeting, manufacturing disruption, and cross-border supply-chain intrusion.

This is about safeguarding Mexico’s digital economy, critical infrastructure, and national operations against the region’s most persistent and sophisticated threats.
