Qilin and Fortinet Exploitation Keep Pressure on Chile as

Chile came under 8.8 billion cyberattack attempts in 2025, according to a regional report cited by G5 Noticias and La Tercera. That figure did not stand alone. The same SEK study, summarized by G5 Noticias and Zoom Tecnológico, recorded 58 incidents affecting or exposing Chilean organizations between January and June 2026. Of those, 18 ended up as data posts on ransomware leak sites and 40 appeared in dark web cybercrime forums. Within that ransomware subset, Qilin accounted for 61 percent of the leak-site posts, with 11 of 18 victims, making it the most active actor targeting Chile in that period.
