Train hard, fight easy
"If you know the enemy and know yourself you need not fear the result of a hundred battles."
To know our capability to resist attack and how prepared we are we test ourselves by rehearsing an incident-response plan.
We begin with workshops for key stakeholders to walk them through worst-case scenarios.
It gives them the chance to assess their recovery capabilities and how well they work with each other.
We can tweak the plan then move to a simulation, which executes a disaster scenario.
The team now identifies key outcomes and deficiencies to update the plan. And we do this periodically or after significant changes to our IT environment.
