Brazil faces rising cybercrime, making LGPD compliance a critical cybersecurity concern.
Brazil’s LGPD, effective since August 2020, imposes strict data protection regulations, with non-compliance penalties reaching up to 2% of a company’s annual revenue in Brazil, capped at R$50 million per violation. The country’s high cybercrime rates, including frequent data breaches and ransomware attacks, underscore the need for robust cybersecurity measures. Resecurity’s expansion addresses these challenges by offering tailored solutions to align with LGPD’s core principles of data privacy and protection, ensuring organizations mitigate legal and reputational risks.
Resecurity’s cyber threat intelligence platform continuously monitors the surface, deep, and dark web to detect compromised personal information, such as leaked customer records or employee credentials. This proactive approach enables organizations to identify potential LGPD violations early, preventing identity theft, financial fraud, and reputational damage. The platform leverages artificial intelligence to automate compliance workflows, including risk scoring, compliance checklists, incident logging, and report generation, reducing human error and streamlining the path to full LGPD compliance.
To lead its Brazilian operations, Resecurity has appointed Luiz Cota as Territory Manager. With over 30 years of experience in cybersecurity, including leadership roles at Cisco, IronPort, and Offensive Security, Cota brings deep expertise to the region. He also founded Brazil’s first cyber-insurance brokerage, advising startups on risk mitigation. Luiz Cota, Territory Manager, Brazil at Resecurity, says: “Brazilian organizations are facing increasing pressure to comply with LGPD and protect sensitive data in a fast-evolving threat environment. Resecurity brings proven expertise in threat intelligence, risk management, and compliance automation, capabilities that are urgently needed in our region. I’m excited to help local businesses and public institutions strengthen their cyber resilience and take a proactive stance against emerging threats.”
Resecurity’s entry into Brazil reflects a long-term commitment to supporting the country’s digital growth through enhanced privacy and security measures. By delivering cutting-edge threat intelligence and compliance automation, the company empowers organizations to meet LGPD standards confidently. As Brazil solidifies its role as a regional tech leader, Resecurity’s solutions contribute to a safer digital future, protecting citizens’ rights and fostering trust across enterprises and the public sector.
This strategic expansion positions Resecurity as a key partner in Brazil’s data protection ecosystem, combining global cybersecurity expertise with localized solutions to address the evolving threat landscape and regulatory demands.
