Cyber Recovery Wargame - Leeds

Successfully managing a major cyber attack has become a vital skill for senior executives. Organisations today need the capabilities to minimise operational downtime, revenue loss and reputational damage. Recovering from an incident is the ultimate test for your resilience, business continuity, cyber security and IT teams.

And the threats are evolving. It’s no longer just about technical failures – deepfakes, disinformation and misinformation are fast becoming core weapons of cyber attackers. The World Economic Forum now ranks misinformation and disinformation as the biggest threat to global stability over the next two years.

What to expect on the day

Our Cyber Recovery Wargame is built around a multi-layered scenario, spanning both cyber and physical domains.

You are a senior executive in charge of managing a complex cyber attack. As the crisis unfolds, you will be guided through how to coordinate the overall response and given a view through the lens of various roles at the organisation. 

The day combines an engaging, interactive scenario and our perspective of cyber resilience best practice, including: 

• Decision making, prioritisation and maintaining minimum business operations in response to a cyber attack
• Stakeholder engagement, crisis communications and reputation management
• Managing and directing the IT recovery, spanning on-prem, cloud, SaaS applications and operational technology

Who is the Cyber Recovery Wargame for?

This Wargame is designed for leaders who carry responsibility for technology, operations, cyber security, business continuity, resilience, or risk. If you’re part of shaping your organisation’s response and recovery, this day is for you.

After the success of our first 2025 Wargame in London, Leeds brings fresh challenges, sharper insights, and the chance to collaborate with peers facing the same evolving threats. To get the most from the experience, we recommend coming with colleagues from across your organisation — recovery is a team effort, and so is this event.
