Despite claims of a "wrong button" press, protocols suggest a more complex failure or potential security breach. The software used by the Hawaii Emergency Management Agency was developed by a team in China, raising questions about system integrity.

Governor David Ige and Emergency Management Administrator Vern Miyagi attributed the error to a mistake made by an employee during a routine shift change.
