Daniel shares his expertise in designing immersive cyber crisis simulations, highlighting the evolution from traditional tabletop exercises to dynamic, interactive scenarios that engage decision-makers in real-world crisis responses.

Highlighted moments

a cyber crisis is effectively a business crisis.

I wouldn't suggest putting those as findings directly that they need to follow up. Because it would also break the dynamic and the commitment of management to jump in and have it.
