Tabletop exercises, staff frame exercises and crisis simulations

Tabletop Exercises, Stabsrahmenübungen und Krisensimulationen

Unlock the full potential of your responsiveness!

At a time when cyber threats and security incidents are the order of the day, robust preparation is essential. Our innovative training offering consists of three tailored solutions: the Tabletop Exercise, the Staff Framework Exercise and the Crisis Simulation, designed to prepare participants for any challenge.

Preparation meets practice

As crises are unpredictable and diverse, it is crucial to be prepared. Just like firefighters who prepare for emergencies through drills, companies must also test every possible crisis through simulations. Only through practice of realistic scenarios can the ability to react and resilience be strengthened. You can master any crisis with targeted training.

Crisis simulations, tabletop exercises, and staff exercises all prepare organizations for the challenges of cybersecurity incidents, but they have different focuses and methodologies.

Crisis simulations are designed to provide participants with an immersive experience by realistically recreating the events of a cyberattack.

Tabletop Exercises provide an opportunity for your organization's leaders and key personnel to come together in a strategically focused setting to analyze and optimize the strengths and weaknesses of existing response and contingency plans.

The staff framework exercise is a unique blend of both approaches, enhancing them with a practical simulation of crisis management. This multi-day exercise not only puts the crisis team into action but also checks the effectiveness of the emergency measures in real-time. It uses real means of communication and information flows, tests management structures and decision-making processes, and comprehensively analyzes the functionality of the crisis management team.
