Test and strengthen your organisation’s cyber response through real-world, interactive scenarios.

Intertek’s structured and immersive tabletop exercises bring teams together under simulated pressure to reveal gaps, spark critical thinking, and leave your team better prepared for real-world threats.

 

Why does Cyber Readiness matter?

With rising threats such as ransomware, data breaches, and supply chain compromises, the need for preparation across departments—not just IT—is more vital than ever. However, despite 82% of board members ranking cybersecurity as a top priority, only 1 in 5 organisations have a formal incident response plan. However, incident response plans don’t work unless they’re tested.

Intertek’s Cyber Crisis Simulation combines the structure of a tabletop drill with the realism of a live crisis scenario. Tailored to your organisation’s industry and threat landscape, the exercise enhances your cyber readiness and executive decision-making during high-stress events.

Continous Drills

We recommend establishing an ongoing programme of Cyber Crisis Simulations throughout the year to ensure your organisation’s readiness and response capabilities remain sharp and adaptive. By scheduling a series of regular, scenario-based exercises, your teams can rehearse against a broad spectrum of evolving cyber threats. This planned rotation exposes participants to both familiar and emerging attack vectors, creating a virtuous cycle of learning, challenge, and improvement—ultimately strengthening their ability to recognise, respond to, and recover from real-world incidents with confidence.
