Public institutions face a critical cybersecurity scenario. InterNexa responds with a SOC designed specifically for the needs of the government sector.
As part of Andicom 2025 and its 25th anniversary, InterNexa presented its Security Operations Center (SOC), a specialized solution for government entities to strengthen their cybersecurity posture in the face of the exponential increase of digital threats.
The outlook is critical. According to Fortinet data cited by the ICT Ministry in its National Digital Security Strategy 2025-2027, Colombia faced 36 billion cyberattack attempts during 2024, consolidating itself as one of the most attacked countries in Latin America. Public institutions, which handle sensitive information of millions of citizens, are among the priority targets of cybercriminals.
The presentation of the SOC marks InterNexa's evolution from its traditional role as a connectivity operator to a comprehensive technology services provider. The company now structures its offering into three strategic verticals: technology services and cybersecurity, infrastructure and cloud services, and connectivity.
Today, in addition to working in the development of key connectivity infrastructure for the country, we want to expand our scope to co-create, hand in hand with the market, the Colombian State and other industry players, an offer of services and solutions tailored to the challenges and needs of the future , said Alvaro Rueda, InterNexa's Engineering Manager.
InterNexa's SOC integrates automation capabilities based on artificial intelligence and machine learning, enabling intelligent real-time analysis of threats. This technological approach makes it possible to anticipate attacks and respond effectively before they compromise the operational continuity of government entities.
"Hackers know that many governments and companies in Colombia do not invest enough in cybersecurity. Our role is to close that gap, guaranteeing protection in all links of the value chain," Rueda explained. InterNexa's strategy is based on a layered security model that integrates technology, processes and people, working with first level strategic allies.
InterNexa provides unique elements for government entities: its own infrastructure in Colombia with operations in Peru and commercial presence in the United States, a team specialized in the particularities of the public sector, and the support of ISA and the Ecopetrol Group. These capabilities position the company as a strategic ally in Public Procurement of Technology and Innovation (PPI) processes.
The SOC is integrated within InterNexa's complete ecosystem of solutions for government, which includes connectivity, data center, cloud and managed services, allowing public entities to have a single provider that integrally manages their technological infrastructure.
This announcement is part of the InterNexa 2.0 strategy, aimed at closing digital gaps, driving innovation and generating public value through solutions that improve the citizen experience and strengthen the capacity of the Colombian State.
With 25 years of experience in critical infrastructure and backed by the experience of ISA in the energy sector, InterNexa consolidates its position as a strategic player in the technology ecosystem, betting on investments and collaborations that reinforce its purpose of building a digitally human world.
InterNexa's Security Operations Center is designed with the flexibility to adapt to different strategic sectors. Soon, the SOC will be available with specialized solutions for the mining-energy and telecommunications sectors, sectors that also face critical cyber threats and require advanced protection of their operational and technological infrastructure.
