A NSFOCUS, a global leader in cybersecurity, announced record-breaking performance in its 2025 financial results for Latin America. For the second consecutive year, the company exceeded its financial targets, posting a result 54% above projections. Growth was primarily driven by high demand for Denial of Service (DDoS) attack protection solutions and the consolidation of Web Application Firewall (WAF) security tools.
The progress is not limited to Brazil. Neighboring countries such as Chile, Colombia, and Peru emerged as key contributors to the positive results, highlighting an increase in the region's cyber maturity.
“The cybersecurity sector has been gaining increasing prominence in C-Level discussions, which also favors investments allocated to the area, as digitalization has made attack surfaces ever larger,” assesses Raphael Tedesco, New Business Director for NSFOCUS in Latin America.
The new profile of attacks: Tbps Scale and AI
The market's growth is a direct response to the evolution of criminal tactics. According to the report, volumetric attacks in the range of Terabits per second (Tbps) are no longer a technical rarity. Currently, internet providers, critical infrastructure, and cloud services face frequent offensive campaigns with peaks between 5 and 7 Tbps.
. Beyond volume, complexity has increased. The illegal market for DDoS-as-a-Service , fueled by Artificial Intelligence, has made attacks cheap and accessible. Criminals now employ “multi-vector” tactics, aiming to saturate multiple defense points simultaneously, orchestrated by global botnets.
Intelligent Defense and the Future with NSFGPT
To combat cybercrime's use of AI, NSFOCUS is betting on its own technology. The company, which has already been developing AI-powered solutions for over five years to reduce false positives, projects a 60% growth in sales of its Threat Intelligence Platform (NTI) this year.
The company's strategic advantage lies in its data foundation: NSFOCUS technology monitors approximately 40% of global internet traffic ahead of other providers, which enriches its detection capability.
“We will integrate NSFGPT — our security AI designed for operational efficiency — into our solutions. The goal is to create a new source of libraries that optimizes the process of identifying and responding to new incidents,” concludes Tedesco.
The company's plan is to massively utilize AI to automate workflows and direct machine learning specifically towards its clients' critical infrastructures, ensuring resilience in an increasingly hostile digital landscape.
