Argentina Cibersegura

What Argentina Cibersegura does

Argentina Cibersegura is an Argentine non-profit association (asociación sin fines de lucro) founded in 2011 and headquartered in Vicente López, Buenos Aires Province. The organization's stated mission is to create a safer digital space through awareness and education on responsible internet and technology use, targeting schools, companies, institutions, and the general public. Its core portfolio is human-delivered and content-based rather than technology-based: in-person and online awareness talks (charlas) for students from age 7+, corporate employee awareness programs, computer security workshops for youth, annual educator training jornadas, a volunteer speaker program (#SoyVoluntario), recurring social-impact campaigns (#NoalGrooming since 2013, #MiRedSegura since 2016, #EnVosEs), and a library of free downloadable educational materials organized by audience (adults, adolescents, children) covering phishing, grooming, cyberbullying, secure passwords, two-factor authentication, and computer crimes. A sub-brand, Ciberdefensores, operates a dedicated Instagram channel.

The business model is donation-funded rather than transaction-based: awareness services are delivered at no charge to schools, companies, and communities, and the organization solicits individual donations (monthly tiers of $300-$1,500 ARG and one-time tiers of $700-$3,100 ARG processed via MercadoPago) and corporate/institutional contributions for employee programs. It maintains a Board of Directors (Comisión Directiva) governance structure and operates with a small paid team of 11 employees plus volunteers, with regional representation in Santa Fe Province. Named enterprise and institutional partners include Accenture, Cognizant, HSBC, Sancor Seguros, Fundación Telefónica, ESET, Samsung, Turner, El Futbolista, Sinergium Biotech, and Municipio Tigre; the organization has delivered 4,000+ awareness talks and reached 350,000+ people since inception. No proprietary software, API, or mobile application is part of the offering, and no AI/ML capability is disclosed.
