ProService and Cypac Partner to Tackle Hawaiʻi’s $500M Cyber Threat
HONOLULU, HI – March 6, 2026 – ProService Hawaiʻi, the state’s leading HR solutions provider, today announced a new service offering designed to protect the Hawaiʻi business community from the ever-increasing risk of cyber breaches. Following a recent news article highlighting that Hawaiʻi businesses and residents lost an estimated half a billion dollars last year, this new initiative reflects ProService’s commitment to delivering forward-thinking solutions that help local employers reduce risk, protect their people, and avoid the devastating costs of digital attacks.
To deliver these specialized protections, ProService has partnered with Cypac, a premier local cybersecurity firm recently ranked Top 3 in Hawaiʻi by Pacific Business News’ 2026 Book of Lists. The partnership is designed to bring exclusive benefits to ProService clients, strengthening their security posture and resilience through local expertise.
A New Standard in Client Protection
As the landscape of operational risk shifts, ProService is integrating cybersecurity into its core administrative suite. Clients will now have access to a multi-layered defense strategy:
- Integrated Cyber Insurance: ProService is providing cyber insurance coverage exclusively for its clients through a leading national insurance carrier. To remove traditional barriers to entry, this benefit requires no lengthy applications, no underwriting, and no audits – eliminating the friction points that often leave organizations uninsured.
- Security Training & Policy Resources: Clients will gain access to an online learning and resource portal focused on employee security awareness and cybersecurity policy development.
- No-Cost Cyber Health Checkups & Expert Consultations: Through the partnership with Cypac, ProService clients will receive complimentary Cyber Health Checkups. These assessments are designed to identify critical cyber security gaps and provide clear next steps without obligation.
- Affordable Preventative Cybersecurity: ProService clients will have access to affordable managed cybersecurity services aligned with Cypac’s industry-leading preventative security framework. This service is built to be practical and scalable, providing proactive monitoring that stops breaches before they result in financial loss.
Education and Community Resilience
Beyond technical services, ProService will host a series of online and in-person learning events focused on cybersecurity and artificial intelligence. These sessions will provide business leaders with timely insights on emerging threats, such as payroll diversion and remote-access scams, as well as guidance on responsible AI use.
“Cybersecurity is not just an IT concern; it’s a whole business, whole org: people, process and technology issue” said Ben Godsey, CEO of ProService. “Our clients ask us to anticipate and solve for their needs. This initiative does that – it removes significant barriers and offers an accessible, high quality suite of solutions for a pressing need.”
“This partnership with Cypac is about empowerment,” added Nitin Aggarwal, GM of Cyber Services at ProService. “We are equipping our clients with protection, education, and trusted expertise. We help manage the evolving risk landscape so they can focus on growing their businesses.”
