Step 1

Make people your strongest control

Equip employees to make better decisions under pressure and embed sustainable security behaviours

Help your entire workforce understand their role in a cyber attack

Having a cyber incident response plan is essential, but plans alone aren’t enough. The real test of resilience lies in how well your people can execute under pressure. Cyber security exercises bridge the gap between theory and reality, helping teams rehearse their response, identify weaknesses, and build confidence.

Whether it’s a high-stakes, fully-immersive Cyber Simulation Exercise or a fast-paced, interactive Cyber Showdown Workshop, our experts help translate technical insight into practical, business-focused action.

Cyber Simulation Exercises

ISF services

These tailored, scenario-based simulations engage key stakeholders across your organisation to test your ability to detect, respond to, and recover from a cyber attack. With expert guidance, you’ll build assurance that your teams can act decisively and restore operations quickly when it matters most.
