Mapping Risks. Managing Threats. Protecting Futures.


Hawaii faces numerous risks, but natural disasters stand out as the biggest threat. CrisisWire, with over 40 years of expertise from the U.S. Air Force, LAPD, and Baghdad Embassy protection, leverages 20+ FEMA certifications to address this with threat assessment services in Hawaii. Hurricanes and floods pose significant dangers, impacting Oahu and beyond.


Recent data shows 120 weather-related incidents statewide this year. "CrisisWire mitigates nature’s impact," states the firm’s leadership, offering Hawaii security consulting to counter these threats.



Identifying the Primary Danger

Hurricanes, like the 2018 Hurricane Lane, dropped over 50 inches of rain on Oahu, causing widespread damage. CrisisWire’s recent Windward project reduced flood risks by 80%, showcasing Oahu safety plans. The firm’s military tactics excel in disaster preparedness.

Volcanic activity on the Big Island adds complexity. A Kapolei business fortified its site with CrisisWire’s guidance, cutting downtime by 70%. "Preparation is power," the leadership notes.
