Group-IB, a leading creator of cybersecurity technologies to investigate, prevent, and fight digital crime, announced today the opening of its first Digital Crime Resistance Center (DCRC) in Santiago, Chile. The Chile DCRC is a crucial component in Group-IB’s expansion into the Americas, and reinforces Group-IB’s commitment to delivering immediate, comprehensive, and localized expertise and intelligence support to organizations and government partners across the region.
The Chile DCRC integrates Group-IB’s full spectrum of capabilities, including fraud protection, digital forensics, incident response, cyber investigations, threat intelligence, and specialized support from its Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT) within a unified operational framework designed for speed, precision, and regional agility. At the core of the center is dedicated local and Latin America-specific threat research, enabling Group-IB experts based in Chile to continuously study the regional cybercrime ecosystem, track emerging threats, and produce tailored, predictive threat intelligence specific to the local landscape.
By maintaining a permanent presence on the ground, Group-IB gains deeper visibility into regional threat actors, attack patterns, and criminal infrastructures, often identifying developments earlier than organizations relying solely on global intelligence feeds.
The Chile DCRC combines this deep local insight with Group-IB’s global threat intelligence network, enriching regional research with visibility across international cybercrime activity. This fusion enables organizations to understand both how global threat actors operate and how those threats specifically manifest in their local environment.
Built on an adversary-centric model, the DCRC analyzes threat actors’ tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) to anticipate their next moves. By integrating local threat research, global intelligence, and investigative expertise, Group-IB empowers organizations to shift from reactive defense to proactive intelligence-driven protection tailored to their unique threat landscape.
“Cybercrime is borderless, and so must be the response. Our expansion into the Americas marks a strategic milestone in Group-IB’s global growth journey. The launch of our Digital Crime Resistance Center in Chile reflects our long-term vision to build a truly interconnected defense ecosystem powered by predictive intelligence and deep adversary expertise. By combining localized operational capabilities with global intelligence and a cyber fraud fusion approach, we are enabling organizations and governments to move from reactive defense to proactive disruption of criminal networks worldwide.”

“Through our Digital Crime Resistance Center in Chile, we are committed to deliver immediate, on-the-ground expertise and intelligence support to organizations across the region. Latin America faces increasingly sophisticated cyber and fraud threats, and businesses require both speed and precision in response. The DCRC provides direct access to our threat intelligence analysts, digital forensic experts, and CERT teams, ensuring organizations can anticipate emerging risks, mitigate incidents quickly, and strengthen resilience against evolving adversaries.”

As part of Group-IB’s “glocal” strategy, the Chile DCRC delivers real-time, locally contextualized intelligence while strengthening a coordinated global defense posture. All Digital Crime Resistance Centers are interconnected through a centralized data lake, enabling seamless cross-border intelligence sharing and operationalizing predictive intelligence at scale, while helping organisations stay ahead of complex, transnational cyber threats.
