Pono's been with the Kukui IT ʻohana since 2018, and built a reputation across Kauaʻi for getting every install, every cable run, every project right. The promotion is well-earned, brotha.

Ever wonder what actually goes into the network behind your business? 🔌

Hundreds of cables. Every one terminated, tested, and tucked into place. It's not glamorous work — but it's the reason your phones ring, your point-of-sale never freezes, and your team can actually get through the day.

If your current setup feels held together with tape and luck, give us a shout. We'd love to clean it up for you.

We recently investigated a real Business Email Compromise (BEC) attack. Here's how it happened — and what you can do to prevent it.

The attacker got in by triggering rapid login prompts on an employee's phone. Thinking they were routine, the employee approved them. That's all it took for the attacker to gain full access to their email.

What happened next:
- 5 hours of silent surveillance — reading 600+ emails, previewing 45 attachments
- Identified active projects with ongoing wire transfers
- Registered a lookalike domain (one extra letter) with valid email signatures
- Sent fraudulent "updated" wiring instructions impersonating a vendor
- Cleaned up the evidence — deleted emails, moved replies to trash, marked messages as unread

The good news? After a password reset and 2FA enrollment, there was ZERO unauthorized access. 2FA works.

5 ways to protect your business:
1. Never approve a login prompt you didn't initiate
2. Verify all wire transfer requests by phone — call a known number
3. Check every letter in email domains before trusting them
4. Review security logs regularly
5. Enable 2FA on every account — it's the #1 defense

This is the most costly type of cybercrime in the US ($2.9B in 2023 per the FBI). If your business sends wire transfers, handles invoices, or uses email — you're a target.

Don't wait for an attack to find out. We investigate, respond to, and prevent business email compromise for companies across Hawaii.

Kukui IT attended the 5th Annual C5 Forum Hawaii at Fort Shafter today!

Great day with DoD leaders from USARPAC, USINDOPACOM, DISA PAC, and PACFLT — plus industry partners shaping the future of cyber defense in the Indo-Pacific.

Big topics today:
âś… Cyber recovery as the new deterrent
âś… Distributed AI mesh at the tactical edge
âś… Decision superiority in degraded environments

Great to see the Technologies crew there — Hawaii's cyber community is small but strong 💪

Mahalo to AFCEA Hawaii, ISC2 Hawaii, and ISACA Hawaii Chapter for making this happen.

Small businesses are the #1 target for cyberattacks — and most don't find out until it's too late.

That's why we deploy Huntress Managed EDR for our clients. It's 24/7 threat detection with real humans behind it — not just software. Ransomware canaries, persistent foothold discovery, and response times under 8 minutes.

Your business deserves enterprise-grade security without the enterprise price tag.
