OneLayer, a specialist in private LTE and 5G operational technology (OT) management and Zero Trust security, has officially expanded its operations into Latin America. This move follows a series of successful deployments across North America and is a response to increasing demand in Latin American markets, particularly within the mining and utilities sectors.
The company’s expansion includes setting up localized sales and support teams in countries like Brazil and Chile. This regional presence is aimed at helping enterprises better secure and manage their private cellular environments as they shift away from traditional, siloed operational models.
Strengthening Private 5G in Mining: OneLayer’s First Latin American Deployment
OneLayer’s initial foothold in Latin America was driven by a major deployment in the mining sector, where a complex private cellular network was successfully integrated with the customer’s enterprise IT environment. The deployment focused on:
- Asset discovery and classification
- Network segmentation
- Security policy enforcement
- Automation of operational processes
- Rapid deployment of new production facilities
The results delivered measurable improvements in operational efficiency and security posture, showcasing how OneLayer’s platform can bridge the gap between private cellular infrastructure and enterprise network operations.
Private 5G for Utilities: OneLayer Builds on Mining Success in Latin America
Following its mining success, OneLayer is now gaining traction with companies in the Energy & Utilities sector throughout Latin America. The company leverages lessons learned from deployments with North American utility providers, where security and visibility into cellular-connected assets have become critical for digital transformation.
Utilities in Latin America are now using OneLayer’s capabilities to manage a growing array of cellular-connected devices, helping to unify operations across IT and OT systems while reducing cybersecurity risks.
Local Sales and Support in Latin America to Drive Private 5G Adoption
As part of its expansion strategy, OneLayer is building dedicated support and sales functions in key Latin American markets. By offering on-the-ground resources, the company aims to better support partners and customers during the design, deployment, and scaling phases of their Private Networks initiatives.
According to Drew Ganther, VP of Sales at OneLayer, “Following our tremendous success in North America, we’re seeing equally strong demand in Latin America, where our first major deployment validated the growing need for cellular device-centric security, observability and orchestration capabilities. By establishing our regional presence across key markets like Chile and Brazil, we can provide the localized support our customers and partners need to successfully deploy and scale their private cellular initiatives.”
Enabling Zero Trust Security and Real-Time Monitoring for Private LTE/5G Networks
OneLayer’s technology stack focuses on Zero Trust security, real-time observability, and network orchestration for enterprise Private 5G environments. The platform enables customers to:
- Detect and classify all connected cellular devices
- Apply dynamic access controls and security policies
- Monitor device behavior across hybrid environments
- Integrate OT networks with enterprise IT systems
By addressing key enterprise pain points in private network management, OneLayer allows organizations to benefit from cellular connectivity without requiring specialized cellular expertise.
Powering Digital Transformation in Latin America with Secure Private Networks

- Mining
- Energy & Utilities
- Transportation
- Smart Manufacturing
- Municipal infrastructure
The company’s expansion aligns with a broader global trend where organizations are adopting 5G and LTE networks not just for connectivity, but also for enterprise-wide digital transformation.
