Argentina is moving on two tracks: bills to regulate the use of minors’ data on digital platforms and a major budget increase for the National Cybersecurity Center. Congress also exposed the lack of a specific cybersecurity law, while the government prepares a national SOC for 2027.

In September 2026, Argentina launched a set of legislative and budgetary moves aimed at two fronts, protecting minors on digital platforms and strengthening the state cybersecurity structure.

At the same time, the 2027 budget calls for a 697.9% increase for the National Cybersecurity Center, while the government prepares a national SOC for 2027.
