In today’s rapidly evolving threat landscape, organisations must be prepared to respond effectively to potential cyber incidents. Siege Cyber’s Cybersecurity Tabletop Exercises provide a practical, engaging way to enhance your organisation’s readiness by testing your incident response plans and building confidence in your team’s ability to handle real-world threats. Designed for staff, executives, and board members, our tabletop exercises are tailored to address the unique challenges and responsibilities of each group, ensuring comprehensive preparedness across your organisation.
What Are Cybersecurity Tabletop Exercises?
Tabletop exercises are simulated scenarios that walk participants through the steps of identifying, managing, and mitigating cybersecurity incidents. Unlike live simulations, these exercises are conducted in a controlled, discussion-based format, making them accessible and low-risk while still providing valuable insights. By working through realistic scenarios, participants gain a deeper understanding of their roles, identify gaps in current response plans, and refine their decision-making processes.
Tailored Scenarios for Every Role
- Staff-Level Exercises: Focused on operational roles, these exercises help employees recognise cyber threats, escalate incidents appropriately, and follow established response protocols. Scenarios may include phishing attacks, malware infections, or insider threats.
- Executive-Level Exercises: These sessions are designed to equip leadership with the knowledge to manage high-pressure situations, make informed decisions, and minimise business disruption. Scenarios may include ransomware attacks, data breaches, or public relations challenges.
- Board-Level Exercises: Tailored for board members, these exercises highlight strategic considerations such as regulatory compliance, reputational risk, and financial impact. Scenarios are designed to improve governance and oversight during a cybersecurity event.
