What is a Cyber Incident Exercise?
A Cyber Incident Exercise (CIE) is a simulated cyber-attack that allows organisations to practice their incident response and crisis management procedures in a safe and controlled environment. Implementing an organisational culture of training and cyber incident exercising protects your business and people in the event of cyber incident.
Benefits of cyber incident exercising
Conducting scenario-based cyber exercises brings numerous benefits to organisations. These exercises help identify strengths and weaknesses in cybersecurity practices, test and refine incident response plans, enhance team collaboration, improve preparedness and resilience against cyber threats, raise awareness and educate employees, meet compliance requirements, gain external perspective, and foster a culture of continual improvement.
By simulating real-world scenarios and engaging participants from various departments, organisations can proactively strengthen their cybersecurity defences, minimise the impact of cyber incidents, and protect valuable assets.
