Industry Findings: Resilience planning in Mexico is maturing as organisations confront rising operational risk from interconnected supply chains and expanding cloud reliance. A significant structural shift occurred in Jan-2024 when Mexico’s National Cybersecurity Strategy outlined a nationwide push for stronger continuity standards and improved readiness across critical infrastructure sectors. That policy direction is prompting firms to formalize recovery governance, map cross-site dependencies and embed restore testing into routine operations. Enterprises are reassessing where critical replicas reside, how they validate clean-state data and which regulatory touchpoints require demonstrable recovery assurance. As a result, investment decisions increasingly favour architectures that deliver consistent recoverability across distributed workloads while meeting the governance demands outlined in the national strategy.
Industry Player Insights: Players operating in the Mexico industry are KIO Networks, Telmex, Alestra, and Oracle Cloud etc. Competitive priorities now revolve around who can anchor DR architectures within national infrastructure while enabling flexible cloud expansion. KIO Networks advanced this position in Apr-2024 when it broadened its managed continuity services across its Mexico City and Querétaro datacentre corridors, giving enterprises tighter proximity for backup staging and multi-site replication. Alestra added another signal in Jul-2024 by enhancing its cloud managed-protection suite with new orchestration and retention capabilities tailored to regulated sectors. These improvements elevate expectations for providers to deliver locally anchored recoverability with transparent runbook execution and regulatory-aligned data handling.
