Session Type: Breakout Session
Delivery Format: Presentation/Panel
Tabletop exercises are necessary as part of your security and compliance program. You can also use them as part of your business continuity and disaster recovery program. However, they don’t have to be boring, "check-the-box" types of events. You will need to put in some effort to make them exciting, but the engagement and the results are worth it. Suitable for people who are beginning to design tabletop exercises, as well as those who have run a few and would like to get ideas about how to keep them interesting.
