NSFOCUS, a global leader in cybersecurity, has just released data for the Brazilian market and Latin American countries. The figures show that 2024 will break the company's five-year revenue record, primarily driven by domestic service providers and Peruvian government sectors.
NSFOCUS's focus for 2025 is on solutions developed with Artificial Intelligence to reach the established target of 35%. According to Raphael Tedesco, NSFOCUS's business manager for Latin America, the solution aimed at providers was a major driver of growth throughout this year.
The company projects a 50% increase in carpet-bombing and SYN ACK attacks, with volumes above 300Gb increasingly common in Brazil. The same is true for other countries on the continent, which suffered numerous denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks throughout 2024, most often with volumes exceeding 100Gbps. "In the first half of the year, we recorded some attacks exceeding 300Gb, with one episode reaching almost 1Tbps," according to Tedesco.
The spokesperson believes this scenario will continue into 2025, causing the number of attacks targeting small and medium-sized providers to increase even further. "This type of business is bombarded daily from all over the world. The defense challenge is enormous, and the search for affordable solutions and flexible mitigation packages is growing accordingly," he reinforces.
In terms of cybernetic maturity in the region, Mexico, Peru, and Chile, in addition to Brazil, are leading the way, not only due to new businesses, but also due to high investment in technologies, especially those connected with Artificial Intelligence.
