CyberHawaii and the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) present a free webinar on the  Convergence of Cybersecurity and Physical Security Tuesday, August 6, 2024 2 pm - 3 pm Register Today! Convergence of Cybersecurity & Physical Security While 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.   According 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.”   In this webinar you’ll learn:   How to create a holistic security strategy The risks of security silos The benefits of convergence Presenter Gen Tamura currently serves as a Protective Security Advisor (PSA) for the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), Honolulu District, which includes Hawaii, Guam, the Commonwealth of the Northern Marianas islands, and American Samoa.
