We are particularly pleased to support small- and medium enterprises, the backbone of economy, in strengthening their cybersecurity capacities and resilience as well as build their business with the European Union.” – Liina Areng, Director of LAC4

EU CyberNet, in cooperation with LAC4, supported the participation of teams from Fiji and the Bahamas in the 4th edition of annual international CyberWizards Summer Camp 2026 in Estonia, an initiative dedicated to introducing girls aged 13-16 to cybersecurity and coding.
One year after participating in the CyberWizards camp in Kehtna, Estonia, the five young Panamanian women who travelled to Estonia reflect on an experience that marked a turning point in their relationship with technology and cybersecurity.
The Latin American and Caribbean Cyber Competence Centre (LAC4) will participate in the CAMP 11th Anniversary Celebration 2026, taking place from July 6 to July 10. The event will bring together members and partners of the Cybersecurity Alliance for Mutual Progress (CAMP) to strengthen international cooperation, exchange experiences and promote collective approaches to a safer and more resilient cyberspace.
As the Latin American and Caribbean region undergoes rapid digital transformation, the traditional Security Operations Center (SOC) model is being challenged by the need for increased agility and cross-border collaboration. To address these evolving demands, LAC4 hosted its latest members-only webinar on this topic, which aimed at providing participants with a foundational blueprint for building and scaling effective SOCs.
