# Chile Cybersecurity (MDR & SOC) Market Size, Share & Forecast, By Service Type, Delivery Model & End-Use Industry, 2026–2032 --- ## Market Overview # CHAPTER 1 - Market Overview The Chile Cybersecurity (MDR & SOC) Market operates around continuous monitoring, endpoint and cloud telemetry, managed SIEM, threat hunting and incident response delivered through recurring contracts. Chile recorded approximately **27.6 billion cyberattack attempts in 2024**, materially expanding the volume of security events that enterprises must triage. This shifts procurement from periodic security projects toward persistent detection and response coverage. Santiago Metropolitan Region is the principal commercial and operational hub for enterprise cybersecurity because it concentrates corporate headquarters, financial institutions, public agencies, technology teams and managed-service talent. The region contained approximately **7.4 million people, or 40% of Chile's enumerated population, in the 2024 Census**. This density supports local SOC staffing, enterprise sales, partner ecosystems and higher utilization of specialist cyber infrastructure. Regulation is becoming a direct demand catalyst. Chile's **Law 21.663**, published in April 2024, established the national cybersecurity framework and institutional architecture, while **Decree 295** subsequently formalized incident-reporting procedures. Regulated operators therefore require stronger detection evidence, escalation workflows, auditability and incident-response readiness, increasing the commercial relevance of MDR, managed SOC, SIEM and compliance-oriented monitoring contracts. Chile's security architecture is also becoming more cloud-centric. AWS announced approximately **USD 4 billion of infrastructure investment**, while Chile's cloud market was estimated at **USD 1.9 billion in 2025** and projected to expand about **20.3% annually through 2028**. This transition increases demand for cloud telemetry, identity monitoring, cross-platform SOC integration and managed detection across hybrid estates. ## KPIs at a Glance * Market Value: USD 300 million (2025) * Dominant Region: Santiago Metropolitan Region (2025) * Dominant Segment: Managed Detection and Response (MDR) (fastest growing, 2025-2032) * Total Number of Players: 30 ## Future Outlook The Chile Cybersecurity (MDR & SOC) Market is projected to expand from **USD 300 million in 2025** to **USD 506 million in 2031** and **USD 552 million by 2032**. The modeled trajectory implies a **9.10% CAGR during 2025-2032**, compared with an **8.56% historical CAGR during 2020-2025**. Regulatory enforcement, cloud migration, security-skills scarcity and higher attack intensity should support recurring managed-security budgets. Larger enterprises will increasingly blend internal security teams with external MDR specialists, while mid-market organizations will favor bundled services that combine monitoring, response, SIEM operations, vulnerability intelligence and compliance reporting within predictable subscription contracts. Value creation is expected to shift toward cloud-delivered and co-managed service models.

This makes the country attractive for sophisticated managed-service models and potential regional security-operations delivery. **Data used:** 4th modeled peer ranking (2025); 85.00 NCSI score **So what:** Providers can position Chile as both a domestic managed-security opportunity and a potential regional operating hub for higher-value SOC capabilities. #### Q: What demand factor is most likely to accelerate managed cybersecurity adoption in Chile? **A:** Cloud expansion is one of the strongest incremental demand factors because it increases the number of workloads, identities, APIs and distributed data flows requiring continuous monitoring. Chile's cloud market was estimated at USD 1.9 billion in 2025 and expected to expand at approximately 20.3% annually through 2028, while AWS announced around USD 4 billion of local infrastructure investment. As enterprise architecture becomes more distributed, security operations must consolidate telemetry across cloud and legacy systems, strengthening demand for cloud-native MDR, SIEM administration and identity-centered detection. **Data used:** USD 1.9 billion cloud market (2025); 20.3% annual cloud growth through 2028 **So what:** MDR providers should build cloud-native telemetry, identity and workload monitoring into the core service rather than treating cloud security as an optional add-on. #### Q: How will Chile's cybersecurity regulation affect MDR and managed SOC procurement? **A:** Regulation will increase the value of continuous monitoring, auditable escalation and documented incident-response procedures. Law 21.663 established Chile's cybersecurity framework, subsequent regulations formalized incident-reporting procedures, and ANCI implementation measures created operational requirements for essential and vital service operators. This changes buyer evaluation criteria: enterprises increasingly need providers that can prove monitoring continuity, classification workflows, evidence retention and rapid escalation rather than simply supply technology. Regulated sectors such as electricity, finance, telecommunications and digital infrastructure should therefore generate some of the most compliance-sensitive managed-security opportunities. **Data used:** Law 21.663; 413 digital and IT operators identified within regulated categories **So what:** Vendors should map MDR workflows directly to ANCI-related obligations and make compliance evidence a core component of service design. --- ## Table of Contents # Table of Contents ### Market Report Structure Comprehensive coverage across three strategic phases, Market Assessment, Go-To-Market Strategy, and Survey, delivering end-to-end insights from market analysis and execution roadmap to customer demand validation. ## Market Assessment Phase Supply-side and competitive intelligence covering market sizing, segmentation, competitive dynamics, regulatory landscape, and future forecasts. ### 1.
