What is a Cybersecurity Incident Response Tabletop Exercise
A well-designed cybersecurity incident response plan (IRP) is essential in effectively responding to security breaches.

How to Implement an Incident Response Plan
Before conducting a tabletop incident response exercise, you need a detailed cybersecurity incident response plan. You can then begin deciding which incident response plan tabletop exercise scenarios that you want to test.
Your information security incident management procedures should be covered in your incident response plan, and implemented in the following phases:
- Prepare Your Team
- Identify Potential Threats
- Define Containment Strategies
- Perform Threat Eradication
- Back and Recovery Planning
- Post-Mortem Procedures
- Training and Education
Implementing a cybersecurity incident response plan takes teamwork, attention to detail, and intelligent use of technology. An excellent incident response plan forms the basis of which tabletop exercise scenarios you choose and how you’ll conduct them.
