ICS/OT Incident Response Drills and Exercises

An incident response plan is only a theory until the people who must use it have run it under pressure. This course helps OT engineers, operations leaders, IT responders, and security teams turn a plan on paper into a tested capability.

Define safe states and manual fallback before an incident forces the decision. Build escalation paths, tabletop exercises, and scenarios that expose the gaps a document review cannot find.

Then turn the results into evidence: an after-action report, owned improvements, recovery checks, and a drill cadence that keeps the program alive after the exercise ends.
