SUMMARY:Fortify Cybersecurity Webinar Session 9: Incident Response
DESCRIPTION:Click to Register \nDespite our best efforts to prepare\, emergencies do happen and their effects can be devastating.  Having strong cybersecurity controls in place does make us more secure\, but they do not guarantee that mistakes won’t be made during everyday business operations.  This is often how ransomware gets embedded or how threat actors are able to trick key employees into revealing sensitive information.  \nHaving an incident response plan is critical to being able to survive disasters. Incident response plan covers things like the assets you’re trying to protect\, the most common threats your business faces\, how your information systems are configured\, how you would bring them back up following an attack or natural disaster and who you would notify.  \nIn this webinar you’ll hear from experts from CISA and the State of Hawaii Office of Homeland Security about the importance of having an incident response plan that covers cybersecurity incidents.   \nIn this webinar you’ll learn:  \n\nWhy having an incident response plan is critical \n\n\nThe elements of an incident response plan \n\n\nAn approach for creating an incident response plan \n\n\nThe State of Hawaii’s strategy for responding to cyber threats \n\n\nThe State of Hawaii’s draft incident response plan template \n\nPresenters:\n \nJennilyn LaBrunda.  Jennilyn is a Cybersecurity Advisor with the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency. She is responsible for Hawaii\, Guam\, the Commonwealth of the Northern Marianas Islands\, and American Samoa.  \nShe is based in Guam and is an experienced cybersecurity and information technology professional with over 15 years of experience. She is a Certified Information Systems Security Professional and a graduate from the University of Guam with a double major in technology & e-commerce and computer information systems.  \n  \n  \nJimmie Collins.  Jimmie is currently serving as the Senior Planner at the Hawaii State Office of Homeland Security. Her initial focus was on supporting COVID-19 response\, recovery\, and long-term resilience planning. She develops\, oversees\, coordinates\, directs\, implements and leads a comprehensive and integrated Homeland Security program for the State of Hawaii\, in partnership with organizational federal\, state\, county and private sector stakeholders that enhances the overall safety and security of the state of Hawaii.  \n  \nClick Here to Register

SUMMARY:Fortify Cybersecurity Webinar Session 8:  Mobile Device & Remote Access Management
DESCRIPTION:Register Here Today\n\nOne of the changes brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic was the widespread acceptance of work being done on a remote or mobile basis.  The trend towards remote work has led to efficiencies for many businesses and a more flexible working environment for employees.  Working outside of a company’s traditional information systems network\, however\, with its network security controls\, has opened up a number of new risks for organizations.\n\nThis presentation addresses the critical issue of mobile device security in an era where smartphones and tablets are central to both personal and professional life. We’ll explore the growing threats to these devices and provide actionable strategies to protect sensitive data. Key topics include strong authentication\, app security\, data protection\, network safety\, device management\, and phishing awareness. Through a combination of current statistics and practical strategies\, attendees will gain a clear understanding of mobile security risks and leave with a concrete set of best practices that can be easily implemented.\n\nWe’ll also discuss the factors involved with managing remote access and what businesses need to look out for whenever employees\, vendors or other entities connect through a company’s firewall.  Access control\, authentication\, multi-factor authentication\, network controls\, VPN\, endpoint security and Zero Trust are some of the topics that will be addressed during this portion of the presentation.\n\nPresenters\n Jennilyn La Brunda\, Cybersecurity Advisor\, CISA\nJennilyn is responsible for Hawaii\, Guam\, the Commonwealth of the Northern Marianas Islands\, and American Samoa.  She is based in Guam and is an experienced cybersecurity and information technology professional with over 15 years of experience. She is a Certified Information Systems Security Professional and a graduate from the University of Guam with a double major in technology & e-commerce and computer information systems.\n\n Al Ogata\, President & CEO\, CyberHawaii\nAl has over forty years of experience in the information security and solution development fields.  Prior to joining CyberHawaii he was the Chief Operating\, Technology and Compliance Officer at the Hawaii Health Information Exchange.  Prior to this he was at HMSA for 18 years\, last serving as the organization’s Chief Information Security Officer (CISO)\, HIPAA Privacy and Security Officer and executive in charge of Business Continuity and Emergency Response.  Prior to joining HMSA he worked in Silicon Valley for over 20 years at a variety of organizations ranging from two person startups to established companies like Hewlett-Packard and Wyse Technology.  Al graduated with a degree in Engineering from the University of California at Berkeley.\n\n\nRegister Here

SUMMARY:Fortify Cybersecurity Webinar Session 7: Convergence of Physical & Cyber Security
DESCRIPTION:Click to Register\nOur next webinar in the Fortify Cybersecurity Education series which covers the topic of improving security by integrating the physical security and cybersecurity functions. \n\n\n\n\n\nWhile we study and plan for threats within very clear boundaries and domains\, most threat actors don’t bother to follow any rules.  To steal our money or information they will employ any technique that is effective\, whether it’s an online tool\, physical threats or violence\, or just old fashioned flim-flam techniques.To protect ourselves and our businesses\, we need to be prepared for threats that cross the boundary between the digital and physical worlds.  To do this we must understand how physical security meshes with cybersecurity.  This convergence of techniques is the subject of this webinar. \nAccording to CISA\, “Convergence is formal collaboration between previously disjointed security functions. Organizations with converged cybersecurity and physical security functions are more resilient and better prepared to identify\, prevent\, mitigate\, and respond to threats. Convergence also encourages information sharing and developing unified security policies across security divisions.” \nIn this webinar you’ll learn: \n• How to create a holistic security strategy\n• The risks of silo’d security\n• The benefits of convergence \nPresenter \n\n\n\nGen Tamura currently serves as a Protective Security Advisor (PSA) for the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency\, Honolulu District\, which includes Hawaii\, Guam\, the Commonwealth of the Northern Marianas islands\, and American Samoa. As a PSA\, Mr. Tamura provides subject matter expertise in critical infrastructure protection and vulnerability mitigation and facilitates local field activities in coordination with other Department of Homeland Security offices. He also advises and assists state\, local\, territorial\, and private sector officials and critical infrastructure facility owners and operators. \nPrior to serving as a PSA\, Mr. Tamura was a Preparedness Analyst and Planning Specialist with the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Region IX\, Pacific Area Office. His duties included National Preparedness\, the Threat and Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment (THIRA) and Stakeholder Preparedness Review (SPR). He is an experienced emergency manager with over twenty-seven years’ experience as well as responding to incidents and working in response\, recovery\, and mitigation divisions in FEMA and local government. \n\n\nClick to Register

SUMMARY:Fortify Cybersecurity Webinar Session 6 - Secure by Design
DESCRIPTION:An initiative that encourages vendors of security and technology products to take accountability for building them in a more secure manner.\nClick Here to Register \nMany technology products are introduced to the market even though they may have missing pieces or flaws that can be exploited by hackers.  This places the burden on companies and consumers to dedicate additional resources for addressing these flaws and to subsequently bear the risk of them being exploited.  In more mature industries\, the inclusion of security and safety principles in the design process has grown over time as manufacturers have realized that building more reliable products results in higher consumer satisfaction and less push back from regulators. \nTo encourage this maturation\, CISA has come up with a voluntary program for software vendors called Secure by Design.  Products designed with Secure by Design principles prioritize the security of customers as a core business requirement\, rather than merely treating it as a technical feature. During the design phase of a product’s development lifecycle\, companies should implement Secure by Design principles to significantly decrease the number of exploitable flaws before introducing them to the market for widespread use or consumption. Out-of-the-box\, products should be secure with additional security features such as multi-factor authentication (MFA)\, logging\, and single sign-on (SSO) available at no extra cost. \nIn this webinar you’ll learn \n• What Secure by Design is and why it is important\n• How Secure by Design principles keep you safer\n• What Customers and Manufactures can do now \nPresenter: \n \nWilliam J. Hicks \nWilliam J. Hicks is CISA Region 9’s Cyber Outreach Support Specialist located in Oakland\, CA. William holds a CompTIA Security+ certification and graduated from the Federal Cyber Defense Skilling Academy (FCDSA). William has a background in Protective Security and Risk Management and has earned a Certified Protection Professional (CPP) from ASIS.  Currently\, William is studying for a second bachelor’s in computer science with a focus on Secure Software Development. \nClick Here to Register

SUMMARY:Unite Against Hate:  An Update for Hawaii Businesses from the FBI
DESCRIPTION:Today’s America is contentious.  Whether it’s arguments over immigration\, the rights of LGBTQ people or what keiki learn in school\, the tone and language of arguments often goes beyond what most reasonable people would call civil.  The foundation of our democracy is the ability to debate ideas in a vigorous\, but ultimately forgiving manner. \nMuch debate today takes place online.  Whether in social media\, chat groups\, media reports or blogs\, ideas are expressed and debated in an often vigorous and aggressive manner.  The very anonymity of the internet can often encourage hateful or inappropriate speech that might not be used in an in-person debate.  The power of the internet to encourage hateful speech and misinformation must not be underestimated. \nHawaii businesses need to be prepared to deal with this type of speech.  Policies and processes must be in place to deal with situations where employees are subjected to hateful speech\, and also where employees themselves are the instigators of this type of speech.  Given that hate speech can be protected by the first amendment\, policies must account for the point that the speech becomes criminal. \nCrafting effective policies that govern hate speech and hate crimes in a business environment takes collaboration between professionals in Human Resources\, Legal Services and Security. \nTo learn more about how to better prepare for this type of situation\, please join us and learn more about: \n\nWhat is the Federal Civil Rights Program?\nWhat Constitutes a Hate Crime Wherein the FBI Gets Involved?\nFree Speech vs. True Threats\nPublic Reporting\n\nTarget Audience \nThe information presented will be useful to: \n\nHuman Resource management and analysts\nLegal Service professionals\nSecurity and Cybersecurity management\nBusiness owners\n\nPresenters \nAll presenters are from the FBI Honolulu field office. \nParking \nParking costs $5.  If a purchase is made at one of the stores at Restaurant Row\, parking can be validated and may be free. \n  \nClick Here to Register In-person or Virtually.

SUMMARY:Fortify Cybersecurity Webinar Session 5 - Encryption
DESCRIPTION:Encryption – Mandatory today\, Obsolete tomorrow?\nClick Here to Register \nThe risk of data theft requires the use of AES level encryption for valuable data when it’s at rest and in transit. Various types of encryptions are available today in both hardware and software forms\, and it is important for businesses to know how these work and what options they have for implementing them. \nSMB’s with heterogeneous technology environments such as Windows end points\, cloud based apps/storage and Apple/Google mobile devices face the task of ensuring that their data is encrypted in and between each of these environments. An additional layer of complexity comes in when businesses have network enabled measuring devices that transmit sensitive information via W8-Fi (such as in clinics and with security cameras). Since these do not always allow for configuration\, it’s important for businesses to be aware of the type of encryption these devices are implementing. \nAnd things are even more complicated with the advent of Quantum Computing which threatens to make the current form of encryption ineffective or obsolete. \nIn this webinar you’ll learn \n• What data encryption is\n• How modern data encryption works\n• Some types of encryption are better than others\n• When encryption is bad for you (i.e.\, ransomware)\n• Should you lose sleep over Quantum Computing?\n• How to use encryption to protect your information and business \nPresenter: \n \nFaaiuaso L. Lilo Jr. \nFaaiuaso (aka J.R.) is the CISA Region 9 first Cybersecurity Law Enforcement Liaison\, which is a Cybersecurity Advisor co-located with FBI partners. J.R. retired from active-duty in the Air Force as Master Sergeant (E-7) after 23 years of service. He worked as an Exploitation Analyst and Cyber Intelligence Analyst for the NSA-Texas. His career in the military was in Network Intelligence Analysis\, Computer System Operations\, and Radio Communications. J.R. holds a Master’s in Cybersecurity and Bachelor’s in Information Technology.

SUMMARY:Access Management & Social Engineering
DESCRIPTION:Register Here \nToday’s applications are configured to control access to valuable information by identifying who is requesting access. This identification process allows whoever is responsible for managing the information to make sure that only the right people can get to it. There are various methods for doing this\, all of which fall under the category of Access Management. Access management consists of methods for identifying users\, establishing that they are authorized to access the information and then managing any credentials that are issued. These processes make it possible to manage large groups of users and very valuable information. Security professionals make a living designing strong access management controls. And hackers make a living figuring out how to break them. \nThreat actors employ a variety of techniques to acquire user accesses they are not entitled to. Once acquired they strive to escalate the assigned privileges in order to increase the value of their illegal access. The most valuable accounts to acquire are administrator accounts that come with elevated privileges to do things that normal users can’t do. Directly accessing databases\, creating new accounts and moving laterally from server to server in a network are examples of activities that hackers work on achieving within both large and small organizations. \nOne of the most effective techniques hackers apply is convincing legitimate users to willingly give up information they use to gain access to systems and information they’re authorized to use. These techniques have been around for hundreds of years and fall into the category of Social Engineering. Being able to manipulate other people to do what they want is a core competency of the best hackers or scammers\, whether used in person or online. \nIn this webinar\, attendees will learn: \n\nWhat Access Management is.\nAccess Management techniques and their strengths and weaknesses\nSocial Engineering techniques\nSocial Engineering scams\nHow to protect yourself and your business.\n\n  \nPresenters:\n \nBruce Mirante\, Cybersecurity State Coordinator CISA Region 9\, joined the U.S. Department of Homeland Security’s Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) in January 2024. Bruce is part of CISA’s Region 9 and serves as the Cybersecurity State Coordinator to the State of Hawaii. In this role\, Bruce builds strategic public and private sector relationships with state\, local\, tribal and private sector critical infrastructure entities\, and serves as a principle point of contact to non-Federal organizations interested in engaging with the Federal government to prepare\, manage and respond to cybersecurity incidents. \nPrior to joining CISA\, Bruce was with Matson Navigation Company serving with their network and information security group. \nBruce has been in Hawaii for the past forty years\, working for the Federal government both as a contractor and a civilian employee. Bruce has also worked as an adjunct professor with the University of Hawaii system and other private colleges on Oahu. \nBruce holds several computer industry certifications with Cisco Systems\, Comptia\, Juniper and Microsoft. \n  \n\nJasmine Lewis\, FBI Special Agent \nSA Jasmine Lewis is a Special Agent with the Federal Bureau of Investigation. She has worked for the FBI for over 5 years. SA Lewis works for the FBI Honolulu division Cyber Squad\, focusing on cyber-criminal investigations. \n  \nRegister for the Webinar \nSpecial Note:  Due to the nature of some of the material\, this webinar will not be recorded and the presentations will not be posted to the CyberHawaii website.  Attendees must be present to hear the material. \n————————————– \nThis session is the Fourth in the 2024 Fortify Cybersecurity Webinar Series\, sponsored by CISA and CyberHawaii.

SUMMARY:Evidence of Compliance: How to Grow Your Business
DESCRIPTION:Healthcare\, government\, military\, construction and energy are just some of the industries that have strong compliance regulations. Hawaii businesses must be able to comply with these in order to grow and be profitable. While there are specific regulations that vary by industry\, some cybersecurity requirements are common across sectors because they are based on common standards. \nFor industries that require certification of cybersecurity practices\, it is critical for organizations to provide evidence of compliance with the required framework. Whether the framework is NIST SP 800-171 as required by the Department of Defense under the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) program\, or other industry certifications and standards such as HIPAA or ISO\, organizations must document their implementation of the different security requirements and controls and be ready to submit their compliance documentation and evidence for third-party review and validation when needed. Subcontractors and suppliers may also be required to demonstrate compliance to an independent assessor or auditor as well\, to meet government or prime contractor mandated terms and conditions. Many small and mid-size businesses struggle with being able to generate\, collect\, organize\, and retain the evidence necessary to adequately demonstrate compliance. \nThis event will focus on addressing requirements related to evidence gathering and third-party assessments. Using the CMMC program and NIST SP 800-171 requirements as an example\, our presenters will explain concepts and best practices related to developing and organizing the evidence needed for successful assessment\, along with the challenges prime contractors face in getting their suppliers and subcontractors to do the same. \nAlthough the CMMC third-party certification program is currently being applied only within the DoD\, the requirement to gather evidence in preparation for assessment can be viewed as a best practice for any business working in a regulated industry. Because evidence gathering and documentation processes can take a while to establish\, they are the kinds of controls that all businesses should establish before they become mandates or risk losing business to competitors. It is also essential for prime contractors to ensure their supply chains are ready for assessment\, and it can be extremely challenging for primes to develop adequate situational awareness of their supplier cybersecurity status. Once more industries and government agencies begin requiring third-party assessment of cyber compliance across the supply chain (as the DoD is currently pursuing)\, small businesses that don’t adequately prepare will miss out on contracting opportunities. Building awareness and initiating evidence-gathering processes in these areas makes a business more resilient\, better prepared for assessment\, and a lower risk from a partnership and subcontractor standpoint. Compliance can also provide a competitive advantage when bidding for new business. \nParking\nAttendees will have to pay by scanning a QR code once they park and the rate is $1/hour. \nClick Here to Register \nA light breakfast will be available from 8:30am.

SUMMARY:Mentorships in Cybersecurity Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Mentorships in Cybersecurity\nCybersecurity is a field that builds upon a professional’s expertise in people\, process and/or systems. This is because cyber threats target people’s behaviors\, processes that are followed by a business\, or features and functions of information systems and technology. Cybersecurity professionals must understand their business from at least one of these perspectives before they can successfully apply security principles in an effective manner. \nPeople just entering the cybersecurity profession can begin with an academic understanding of security principles and/or work experience in a field that deals with people\, processes or systems (such as HR\, finance or Information Technology). Learning about effective cybersecurity controls can be achieved on the job\, provided new employees are able to operate as part of an experience Cybersecurity team that can provide support and mentoring to refine the competencies required to successful defend or attack cyber threat actors. \nMentoring of existing employees or internships for potential employees are key success factors for people pursuing a career in cybersecurity. Success in cybersecurity does not require candidates to be programming superstars\, or be the top cloud engineer in the company. It does not necessarily even require a technical degree\, if a candidate is interested in the behavioral analysis side of cybersecurity. What it does require is critical thinking skills\, the ability to spend long hours in front of a computer and the ability to “think” like someone who doesn’t like to follow rules while adhering to strict protocols themselves. \nIn this webinar you’ll hear about the key tenets of mentoring and internships including: \n\nWhat is mentoring and why is it important\, especially in cybersecurity careers?\nThe difference between mentorships and internships\nHow do CISA and other federal agencies support mentoring and internships?\nMentoring and internships in the private sector\nA framework for mentoring\n\nRegister for the Webinar \n\nPresenters\nBruce Mirante\, Cybersecurity State Coordinator CISA Region 9\, joined the U.S. Department of Homeland Security’s Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) in January 2024.

SUMMARY:Cyber Insurance Webinar
DESCRIPTION:According to the IBM 2023 Cost of a Data Breach Report the average total cost of a data breach reached an all time high of $4.45 million per incident.  Organizations that reported low or no security system complexity experienced an average data breach cost of $3.84 million in 2023.  Cloud environments were frequent targets for cyber attackers in 2023. Attackers often gained access to multiple environments\, with 39% of breaches spanning multiple environments and incurring a higher-than-average cost of USD 4.75 million. \nAll this basically means that data breaches are expensive to fix.  And many businesses do not survive them.  In order to protect yourself and your business\, there are certain things you can to improve your chances of surviving a breach. \n\nRisk assessment. Perform a risk assessment to understand your organization and what you’re trying to protect.\nBusiness preparation and continuity. Create policies that describe what you will do to reduce your risk and be able to stay in business.\nIncident response. Create a plan for responding to a cyber-attack.\nEmployee training. Make sure your employees understand how to keep your business safe.\nNetwork and website vulnerability identification and management. Perform penetration testing to identify gaps in your information system security and come up with plans to fix them.\nRegular scanning and testing\, including dark web scanning and ethical hacking. Monitor and test your internal and external environments for signs that you may have been compromised.\nCyber insurance policies. Obtain appropriate cyber insurance to help you to prepare for and recover from a cyber incident.\n\nCyber insurance is a key element of an effective cybersecurity system.  It can help to offset the cost of recovering your business when a data breach occurs.  Because of the high cost to recovery from a data breach and the increased frequency of cyber-attacks\, the question we all have to ask ourselves is:  Can we afford not to have cyber insurance? \nIn this webinar you’ll hear about the key tenets of cyber insurance including: \n\nWhat is cyber insurance?\nWhat does it do?\nWhat do terms like “third party liability” and “first party loss” mean?\nWhen should you consider buying cyber insurance?\nWhat policy options do you have?\nWhat are your obligations under a cyber insurance policy?\n\n  \nRegister for the webinar \nPresenter\nMark A Smith\, Senior Vice President\, CRC Insurance \nMark is a cyber focused insurance wholesaler\, specializing in cyber since its emergence to prominence in 2007.  As head of CRC’s national Cyber Team\, he works closely with many cyber insurers in the development and refinement of cyber policy forms and endorsements.  He is a frequent industry speaker\, writer\, and educator on all things cyber.  He is a graduate of Washington State University and splits his time between Arizona and Wisconsin with his labradoodles Roca and Snickers. \n\nThis webinar was made possible by a grant from the Hawaii Department of Business\, Economic Development and Tourism.  Other supporters include the Chamber of Commerce Hawai‘i\, the Hawai‘i Defense Alliance and the University of Hawai‘i.

SUMMARY:Fortify Cybersecurity Webinar Session 01 - Password Management and Multi-Factor Authentication
DESCRIPTION:Password Management and Multi-factor Authentication\nPassword management is a fundamental control in a strong cyber security framework and can be effectively implemented by businesses of all sizes.  Many who operate small or large businesses may not give passwords much attention and mistakenly assume using a password that is easy to remember will make their lives easier when they have so many other responsibilities. However\, a simple password is easier for cyber terrorists to crack\, while a longer\, more complicated password that uses a combination of letters\, numbers and symbols takes longer and can be the first line of defense against a cyber-attack. This is just the beginning what is necessary for basic password security. \nConversely\, Multi-factor Authentication (MFA) may seem like a new technology that is out of the reach of most businesses as a security tool.  Given the variety and frequency of cyber threats working to compromise online accounts\, MFA is no longer a luxury.  It provides an additional line of defense that can be implemented in businesses of all sizes.  And it has matured to the point that even small businesses are able to implement it. \nRegister to Join the Webinar \nBy attending this webinar you’ll learn about: \n\nBasic password management rules\nThe importance of Strong Passwords\nThe role of Password Managers\nWhat MFA is and isn’t\nPros and Cons of MFA\nOptions for implementing MFA\n\nFor more information\, you can listen to CyberHawaii CEO Al Ogata’s recent interview on Hawaii Public Radio discussing the seminar. \nPresenters\nJennilyn LaBrunda\, a Cybersecurity Advisor (CSA) with the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) for the Pacific Islands\, will lead this session. She is responsible for Hawaii\, Guam\, the Commonwealth of the Northern Marianas Islands\, and American Samoa. \nGuam-based LaBrunda is an experienced cybersecurity and information technology professional with over 15 years of experience.
