Speakers: Andy Jabbour

In this interactive session, participants will be led through an actual workshop on cyber resilience – addressing why and how to develop cyber discussion-based exercises like workshops and tabletop exercises (TTXs). Through a modular approach, like most actual exercises, participants will discuss background concepts for exercises, what is needed, ways to make them successful, different types for different audiences and outcomes, and more. The session will be led by Andy Jabbour, founder and managing director of Gate 15, and a senior exercise practitioner and subject matter expert. Participants will be encouraged to share and learn from one another and to ask questions to help them leave with the information and confidence they need to return to their tribes and businesses able to bolster their organization’s cyber resilience through effective exercises.
