Tabletop exercise library

100 ready-to-run cyber tabletop exercises across 15 incident domains. Search them, pick one at random, or tell us who will be in the room and we'll rank the scenarios that fit those people best. Every exercise shows who to involve, how long it runs and an outline — and the scenario prompt is free to copy and read out.

Running one for real? Pro adds the facilitator's run sheet for each exercise: a minute-by-minute timeline, timed injects, step-by-step facilitation guide and the questions to put to each person. Or build your own with the Tabletop Runbook Generator.

Who's in the room?

Pick the people you have — we'll suggest exercises that fit them.

A vendor holding your customer data appears on a leak site

A threat-intelligence feed your team subscribes to posts a new entry: a ransomware group claims to have stolen 600 GB from a small order-fulfilment company. You use that company to ship orders, and you send it customer names, addresses, phone numbers and order contents every day. The listing includes a file tree with a folder named after your brand. The vendor has not contacted you. When you call, the owner says they "had a computer problem last week" and that their IT provider is handling it. You are the data controller for those customers.

A billing vendor's breach starts your HIPAA notification clock

Your medical billing company, a business associate that processes claims for your 180-physician practice, sends a two-paragraph email: an unauthorised party accessed one of their file servers 'between March and June' and some of your patients may be affected. They found it 41 days ago. They have not said which patients, what data, or whether it was encrypted. Your compliance officer asks when your own 60-day clock started, and whether it started without you. Patients are calling the front desk after a local news story. What do you need from the vendor today, and who owns the answer?
