Plans are only as good as the people executing them. Our facilitated tabletop exercises put your incident response capability under realistic pressure, without the consequences of a real breach, so you find the gaps before an attacker does.
A documented incident response plan is not the same as a capable team. Under the pressure of a live incident, gaps appear in places no plan anticipates: unclear ownership, slow escalation, communication that breaks down across technical, management, and legal functions.
A tabletop exercise reveals those gaps in a controlled setting. We introduce a realistic scenario, escalate it with injects, and observe how your people actually respond, then we turn what we see into concrete, prioritised improvements.
We facilitate exercises across the threats most likely to test your organisation. Each scenario can be run as standard or tailored to your environment, sector, and team structure.
Simulate a ransomware deployment across your environment, testing detection speed, escalation paths, communication protocols, and recovery decision-making under pressure.
Walk your finance, HR, and IT teams through a realistic BEC scenario, validating verification processes, approval workflows, and inter-team coordination when fraud is suspected.
Simulate a compromise originating from a key supplier or managed service provider, testing your ability to isolate, investigate, and respond when the threat enters through a trusted third party.
Exercise your legal, compliance, and communications response to a personal data breach, including GDPR/ICO notification timelines, customer communication, and board escalation.
Test your ability to recover systems and data after a major disruption, from infrastructure failure to natural disaster, validating DR plans, backup integrity, and recovery time objectives under realistic pressure.
Exercise your business continuity plans against a scenario that disrupts critical operations, testing how you sustain essential functions, communicate with stakeholders, and manage continuity across the organisation.
