Hawaiʻi faces a growing cybersecurity threat landscape and yet thousands of IT and cyber positions remain unfilled locally. We will share why homegrown talent is key to strengthening our region’s digital resilience. This session explores today’s top cyber risks, practical steps for small businesses to boost their security, and how collaboration between industry, education, and community partners is critical for protecting Hawaiʻi’s future. Attendees will walk away with actionable strategies to enhance their cybersecurity posture and engage in workforce development efforts that build a stronger, more secure Hawaiʻi.
