Brazilian managed security and fraud prevention provider for mid-market enterprise
Tempest Security Intelligence operates as Brazil's largest pure-play cybersecurity firm, running Managed Security Services (MSS), digital identity, and fraud prevention across a 200+ person org. The security team dominates hiring (5 of 9 open roles), with junior-heavy seniority distribution and active projects centered on firewall expansion, SOAR playbook development, and detection rule creation — indicating infrastructure scaling rather than new product development. Pain points cluster around incident response velocity and compliance optimization, typical of a growing MSS provider managing client-facing security operations.
Tempest Security Intelligence was founded in 2000 and is headquartered in Recife, Pernambuco, with offices in São Paulo and London. The company protects over 600 enterprises across financial services, retail, and e-commerce through a portfolio exceeding 70 solutions: cyber-security consulting, penetration testing, threat intelligence, managed security services, fraud prevention, and digital identity. The tech footprint spans enterprise firewalls (Checkpoint, Palo Alto Networks, Fortinet FortiGate), cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, Azure), endpoint and vulnerability management (Tenable, Qualys, Trellix), and security orchestration (SOAR, SIEM). Hiring is concentrated in Brazil and focused on security operations and sales roles.
Tempest deploys Palo Alto Networks, Checkpoint, Fortinet FortiGate, Cisco ASA, Cloudflare, F5, Qualys, Tenable, Trellix, Zscaler, CyberArk, Trend Micro, and KnowBe4 across firewall, threat intelligence, vulnerability, and endpoint defense.
