Public Sector

AI-Powered Tabletop Exercises for Government

Government agencies are high-value ransomware targets. When services go down, the public feels it. Test your response before that happens.

#2

Most ransomware-targeted sector globally (Malwarebytes, 2024)

30+ days

Average containment time for public sector incidents (IBM, 2024)

FISMA

Requires annual security testing including incident response exercises for federal agencies

Scenarios and threats you can’t ignore

Role-based exercises tailored to high-impact situations common in Public Sector.

Ransomware on Government Systems

Test cross-agency response when critical government services are encrypted — IT, legal, communications, and elected officials coordinating simultaneously.

Citizen Data Breach

Exercise response to PII exposure across departments — privacy, compliance, public communications, and IT working under public scrutiny.

Election System Disruption

Simulate threats against voter systems or election infrastructure — testing continuity planning and coordination with local/state/federal agencies.

Insider Threat & Access Abuse

Run exercises where internal privilege misuse triggers a security incident — including HR, legal, and IT coordination.

Critical Infrastructure Disruption

Simulate a cyber or physical incident impacting water, energy, transport, or emergency dispatch systems — testing continuity and public safety coordination.

Public Communications Breakdown

Exercise misinformation response, public trust crises, and press coordination — so leaders can act quickly under high visibility.

How it works

Step 01

Government-specific scenarios fast

Describe your agency structure, critical services, and threat priorities. AI generates a scenario with roles across IT, legal, public communications, emergency management, and elected officials.

Step 02

Cross-agency participation built in

Invite participants from different departments or jurisdictions. Exercises run asynchronously so you can train teams without coordinating a single in-person event.

Step 03

Audit-ready outputs for compliance

Get decision trails, after-action reporting, and action catalogs ready for FISMA documentation, public accountability, and grant requirements.

Common exercise library

Start from proven scenarios, then tailor for your org structure, systems, and stakeholders.
