Tabletop Exercises
before it happens for real

Facilitated scenarios that let executives and technical teams rehearse their response to ransomware, data breaches and other crises in a safe setting.

How we help

Plans only work if people have practised them. Our exercises are built around realistic scenarios for your organisation and sector, with injects that test decision-making, communication and coordination under pressure.

What’s included

Built around your environment

Every Tabletop Exercises engagement is scoped to your systems, risks and team, with clear outcomes agreed before work starts.

  1. 01

    Scenario design

    Exercises built from real incidents and your own systems, not generic scripts.

  2. 02

    Expert facilitation

    Experienced responders guide the session and challenge assumptions constructively.

  3. 03

    Actionable outcomes

    Gaps in plans, roles and tooling recorded and turned into an improvement plan.

A clear path from scope to results

An incident is the worst time to find a responder or write a plan. We help you prepare in advance, respond with an experienced team when something happens, and learn from every event.

  1. Prepare

    Plans, playbooks, contacts and tooling agreed before an incident, so response starts immediately.

  2. Contain

    Isolate affected systems, stop the spread and preserve evidence in the first critical hours.

  3. Investigate and recover

    Find the root cause, remove the attacker and restore services safely from trusted backups.

  4. Learn and harden

    A blameless review turns lessons into concrete improvements to controls and processes.
