The annual state cybersecurity report

Uruguay’s 2025 Budget Review Act created a new obligation: from 2027, every public entity must put the state of its cybersecurity in writing once a year — and that document reaches the head of the entity and Agesic. This 7-page note explains what article 23 requires, how it fits with the rules already in force and what should be resolved before 1 March 2027.

What it covers

  • The enacted text of article 23, explained: what is reported, to whom and on what deadlines.
  • The full regulatory chain in one table: Law 20.212 (arts. 78 and 79), Decree 66/025, MCU 5.0, Decree 275/025 and Decree 168/026.
  • Why it was proposed: the 42,768 incidents of 2025, the 0.17 % of high severity and the investment culture Agesic wants to install.
  • What the law leaves open: the format, the period covered, spending and the absence of external validation.
  • The starting point: of 244 bodies covered by Decree 275/025, only 10 reported full compliance.
  • The first cycle’s calendar and the seven steps worth starting before March, without waiting for Agesic’s format.
  • What it means for state suppliers and for private companies in critical sectors.

Who it is for

  • Heads and boards of public entities who will sign the report and need to understand what they are signing.
  • State information security and IT leads, with less than five months to get the assessment done.
  • Technology suppliers to the state and critical-sector companies, who will feel the requirement through their contracts.
