Tabletop Exercises
Turn your vulnerabilities into capabilities
Not every organization has the capability to maintain a consistently adapting security team and with the daily expanse of cyber attacks, it is difficult for organizations to shift to a more proactive method of threat response. If your team lacks the time and expertise they need to proactively manage threats within your network, where do you even start? The CTIR Tabletop Exercise Service helps test your people, process, and technology against real-world scenarios, so when a threat breaches your defenses, you are ready.
Enhance your incident response
CTIR experts will create custom scenarios designed to test your processes against the threats facing your organization. At the end of the engagement, your team will receive an after-action report identifying areas of opportunities in your incident response capabilities.
