Latin American Managed Security Services Markets

Although the managed security services market in Latin America (in the Southern Cone in particular) has not yet reached maturity and is in an incipient phase compared to developed countries, competing in this segment is an important challenge for providers. New contenders appear every day, as do innovative devices and platforms. The main offerings in the Latin America Market are firewall and VPN; IDS, IPS, and Anti-Virus; Anti-Spam; and filter content. Authentication and penetration tests still have lower demand and because of that, higher growth rates. The main market competitors in the region are IBM, HP, Cipher, Arcon, Unisys, and NeoSecure.
