DERECHOS DIGITALES CYBERSECURITY IN LATIN AMERICA: NATIONAL STRATEGIES IN 2024 10 The ENC is structured along six lines of action: national governance and coordination, cyber resilience, combating cybercrime, national cyber defense and cyber intelligence, cybersecurity skills and capabilities, and international cooperation. The implementation of the ENC involves the active participation of various public and private institutions, as well as collaboration with international organizations specialized in cybersecurity. MINTEL leads the coordination of these actions, working together with entities such as the National Cybersecurity Committee, to ensure a comprehensive and effective approach to the protection of Ecuadorian cyberspace. 2.7. Guatemala: National Cybersecurity Strategy Guatemala published its National Cyber Security Strategy on June 20, 20188, developed by the Ministry of the Interior in collaboration with various national and international actors. The drafting process included consultations and validations with more than 160 representatives from different sectors of Guatemalan society, seeking to strengthen security in cyberspace and protect citizens’ personal data. The strategy is articulated around the following fundamental axes: capacity building, critical infrastructure protection, legal and regulatory framework, awareness raising and education, and international cooperation. It also includes specific action plans with concrete measures, although it does not detail their total number. The implementation of the strategy has faced challenges, mainly due to the absence of a specific legal framework to support the proposed actions. Nevertheless, efforts have been made to set up the National Cyber Security Committee, which is responsible for coordinating and monitoring policies in this area. The validity of the strategy is subject to periodic revisions to adapt to new threats and technological advances in the digital sphere. 2.8. Mexico: ENCS Mexico published its National Cybersecurity Strategy (ENCS, an acronym for Estrategia Nacional de Seguridad Cibernética, in Spanish) in November 2017, developed with the collaboration of the Organization of American States (OAS)9. The process of developing the ENCS, called “Towards a National Cybersecurity Strategy”, was carried out from March to October 2017, promoting spaces for dialogue, discussion, and learning through forums and workshops that involved various actors of Mexican society. The ENCS establishes five strategic goals: protecting society and its rights; preserving the country’s economic prosperity; maintaining public order, peace, and national security; strengthening international cooperation; and promoting a reliable digital government. Moreover, it is based on guiding principles such as a human rights perspective, a risk management approach, and multidisciplinary and multi-stakeholder collaboration. Since its publication, the implementation of the ENCS has faced some challenges, including the need to harmonize efforts among various institutions and sectors.
