Grow Your Business through Cybersecurity Maturity Presented by Al Ogata, President & CEO, CyberHawaii PBX Hawai‘i, an annual event for architects, engineers, and others in the building and design professions Hawai‘i Convention Center Wednesday, October 2, 2024 2 pm - 3 pm Register for PBX Hawai'i Today! Presentation Description Every industry sector is at risk of a cyberattack, even those in the building industry. Hawaii’s general contractors, the trades, architects and others must comply with cybersecurity requirements to secure federal projects to grow and diversify their businesses. Yet, many small and midsize businesses struggle with being able to demonstrate compliance, which disqualifies them from doing business with the military. With an estimated $1.55 billion in military construction allocated for Hawaii in FY 2025, the most of any state, Hawaii companies must be prepared to meet these new cybersecurity requirements. There is an urgent need for compliance. In FY 2025, the Department of Defense’s Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) program is expected to become federal law. All contractors, regardless of size, who handle Federal Contract Information (FCI) and Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) will be required to meet these requirements over time. This presentation will focus on the requirements for CMMC compliance and resources that are available to help Hawaii businesses. Al Ogata, President & CEO of CyberHawaii Al has over 40 years of experience in the information security and solution development fields. Prior to joining CyberHawaii he was the Chief Operating, Technology and Compliance Officer for 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. Before 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.

Mobile Device & Remote Access Management The COVID-19 pandemic brought widespread acceptance of remote working. This trend has continued and has led to increased efficiency for many businesses and more flexible work schedules for employees. Working outside of a company’s traditional information systems network without security controls; however, has opened the door to new risks for organizations.   This presentation addresses the critical issue of mobile device security in an era where smart phones 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. Current statistics and practical strategies will provide you a clear understanding of mobile security risks and give you a concrete set of best practices that can be easily implemented.   We’ll also discuss how to effectively manage 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 the presentation.
