Presentation: Organized attacks can effect both large businesses and the smaller businesses they serve. How service providers and their customers can collaborate in 360 degree security solutions.
Speaker: Beau Monday, CISSP GSEC - Information Security Officeer - Hawaiian Telcom
Topic: Recent breeches of personal financial information have been widely publicized as having not only caused the normal concerns and inconveniences to consumers, but real material cost to the banks that have guaranteed the fraudulent transactions to maintain customer confidence despite the limits of their responsibilities. Even the largest banks and insurance companies with the most sophisticated security measure are vulnerable if their merchants and subscribers are unaware of the risk of vulnerabilities to their databases, transaction systems and their responsibility for intensified security.
Who's responsible for security in an end-to-end transaction: examples from the financial services and healthcare industries. Can a small business afford security? Or perhaps the better question is can they afford not to have it? Solutions available for even the smallest business can improve customer confidence.

IT Academy is a free service, open to the public, to provide online access to various Microsoft training courses. This service is also available in multiple languages. We'll be discussing the WHY -- the motivation behind this project with Microsoft. We'll also discuss the following: WHO can access this, HOW do people sign up, WHAT courses are available, WHERE are the courses, and WHEN can we access them?
BIO: 17 years working in IT, holding additional Master's Degrees in Psychology and Literature, which have been a surprising benefit while navigating in the world of IT. Worked in the private and public sector, learning how to maximize the resources and abilities of both.

Inside/Out Threat Detection
Speaker:
Anthony K. Giandomenico
Director of Soluions Marketing Referentia
Topic:
How many times have we heard the phrase "It's not a matter of if, but when an attack occurs." I would say quite often over the last few years and now that statement couldn't be more true. With advanced attack technology and lack of protection technology, increased software vulnerabilities, skilled resources from the bad guys and a more or less apathetic attitude by businesses toward the problem, its highly probable that the attacks will continue to be successful in organizations around the globe. Although we are losing the battle of preventing the attacks, with the right architecture, tools, intelligence and methodologies we should be able to more accurately and efficiently detect the attacks and mitigate them once they are in the network. In this talk I hope to shed some light on how to accomplish this through better visualization and control of your network utilizing your current technology and some open source tools. It's your network so own it!
BIO:

Presentation:
Another Year In Web Security: What did 2012 teach us about surviving 2013?
Speaker:
Jeremiah Grossman
Founder and CTO, WhiteHat Security
Topic:
If history repeats itself, and the unexpected always happens, how incapable must Man be of learning from experience. This talk will provide an objective analysis of breaches and web security trends in 2012.
Year after year we continue to witness some of the world's biggest brands in the headlines for security breaches, with what seems no end in sight. And it's not just the Fortune 500 in the cross-hairs; hacktivists, cyber-criminals, and nation-state sponsored attackers have no problem going after anyone and everyone they choose. Some days it's banks. Other days, retailers. Colleges, restaurant chains, technology companies, television networks, state governments, and so on have also been victimized.
Here's the problem: While last year we saw the average number of serious vulnerabilities on websites dropped 66%, showing a glimmer that the open doors for hackers are being closed, the fact of the matter is even just one vulnerability is just as detrimental as 100. This understanding calls for a new way of thinking about defense. Effective defensive is NOT software security perfection, but a strategy that significantly raises the costs of our adversaries to compromise a system with each dollar we invest. In this session, Jeremiah Grossman, CTO and Founder of WhiteHat Security will discuss the key security breaches that's took place in 2012, the most important new lessons learned, and what it all means for the future of cyber security. Attendees will walk away with an idea of what 2012 research and events meant for security and what we can expect to see in 2013.
Biography:
Jeremiah Grossman, founder and CTO, WhiteHat Security, is a world-renowned Web security expert. A co-founder of the Web Application Security Consortium (WASC), he was named one of InfoWorld's Top 25 CTOs in 2007 and is often quoted in major publications such as SC Magazine, Forbes and USA Today.
He has authored dozens of articles and whitepapers, is credited with the discovery of many cutting-edge attack and defensive techniques, and is a co-author of "XSS Attacks: Cross Site Scripting Exploits and Defense." Grossman is an influential blogger who offers insight and encourages open dialogue regarding research and vulnerability trends.

Presentation:
Behavior analysis as a predicative modeling tool against malicious cyber events
Speaker:
Donovan Williams
PhD Candidate, Capella University
Topic:
The leaders of our country and industry have no desire to know that thirty days ago their information enterprise was breached, drained, and compromised. The complexity and speed that advanced information technology has brought to us has additionally included a downside with advance persistent threats conducting innovative malicious cyber events to our networks. Thirty days, thirty minutes, even three minutes is not adequate enough warning time against the multiplicity of complex cyberattacks we are facing with our present post-facto reactive cyber defense systems. What we need is a new paradigm that is predictive in nature. This archetype is one that is in front of the attacker and understands the modus-operandi of the invader's malicious behavior before it starts. The result is to develop a predictive modeling tool to meet the attacker outside the firewall before the breach. Comparatively, if the foe is successful in a penetration of the network, for the first time, the defense has an awareness through this new proactive prototype of who, what, when, where, and why to aid in their defensive strategy.
Biography:
Donovan Williams is an aspiring PhD Candidate at Capella University where he is conducting cyber research on behavior analysis. He is currently developing his proposed dissertation topic "Behavior analysis as a predicative modeling tool against malicious cyber events" as he moves forward in his studies.
In addition, Donovan is a 1982 graduate of the U.S. Naval Academy, received his Masters from the University of Auburn-Montgomery and is a certified Project Manager Professional (PMP). A retired Naval Aviator he has several thousand hours in the F-14 and combat time in Libyan and Iraqi conflicts. He currently resides in Aiea Hawaii and is in transition to a new firm as Vice President of Pacific Operations.

Financial Information Security Risk Management 2013: Vendor Due Diligence
Speaker:
Kenneth Newman (CRISC, CISM, PMP, ITIL)
Senior Vice President, Central Pacific Bank
Topic:
Companies, especially those in financial services severely impacted in recent years, continue to explore opportunities to reduce cost and increase revenues. For many, this includes a serious look at both outsourcing and offshoring, as part of major projects. While many institutions already have significant vendor relationships, this trend will increase the level of operational reliance placed on third parties. Often a clear understanding of security risk is not a significant enough discussion topic in these procurement proceedings. This presentation will focus on how to best communicate, engage, and handle risk management from an information security perspective when looking at new, critical vendor engagements.
Biography:
Kenneth Newman (CRISC, CISM, PMP, ITIL), Senior Vice President at Central Pacific Bank, has twenty years of progressive experience in technology, security, risk fraud & privacy and a proven year track record delivering solutions in financial services.

He holds an MS in Information Systems and a BS from Columbia University.
Mr. Newman has managed or served as an SME on many projects where he needed to balance risk and security with compliance requirements to meet business needs. He has coordinated global security software deployments, and conducted due diligence for large-scale projects, as well as outsourcing and M&As.
Also a frequent trainer and speaker, Mr. Newman has presented at RSA Conference, MIS Training Institute IT Security World, American Banker Identity Theft and Fraud Symposium, Ziff Davis Security Summit, ComputerWorld Mobile and Wireless World, Technology Manager's Forum, Cyber Security in the Financial Services Sector Executive Summit, and Wireless Enterprise Summit, as well as for FBI, ISACA, Infragard, ISSA, PMI, AITP, ACFE, AFCEA, CoC, BBB, HAIP, and HAPA Hawaii and mainland events.
