Part of the Kahi'olani
Foundation Native Hawaiian Organization (NHO), Honolulu-based Pacific Global
Security Group was founded in 2020 by tier one industry specialists with global military,
Big4 and DarkMatter experience. Operational Technology (OT) - including industrial
applications of the internet of things (IoT) - is rapidly growing, as smart factories or
Manufacturing 4.0 grow in popularity. Every industrial application imaginable is
increasingly connected, including critical infrastructure such as power, water, hospitals,
government networks, and oil and gas pipelines. Billions of IoT endpoints are being
connected to networks that can be a security risk.
Pacific Global Security Group brings the state-of-the-art in
cybersecurity, Zero Trust, to OT and the industrial internet of things (IIoT). Pacific
Global Security Group’s fabric provides a cybersecurity mesh that does away with
traditional network perimeters. No trust is assumed for machines, apps, or users until
their identity is authenticated and their access authorized in accordance with the
company’s security policy.
Pacific Global Security Group’s Zero Trust approach uses identities
and credentials to create a secure environment, allowing admins to even customize
authorization to permit only a limited set of interactions for only the required duration
– preventing broader network access that enables ransomware to infect servers. With Zero
Trust, individual points of entry are closed, preventing any single breach from
overflowing into its surroundings.
