From a one-off exercise to a steady rhythm
A tabletop exercise is often a yearly project. With simler, practicing becomes a regular part of your services.
Preparation no longer takes weeks
By hand, an exercise means writing a scenario, lining up messages and filling roles. With simler, the scenario is ready in about ten minutes, based on your client's plans. Your hours go to facilitating and interpreting.
Every exercise creates follow-up work
The debrief shows where things went wrong: a plan that doesn't hold, a mandate nobody knew about, a supplier without agreements. Fixing that is work your client needs your expertise for.
Your client sees things get better
The next crisis simulation tests the open points again, and the readiness score shows whether your client is making progress. So every meeting with your client starts with something concrete.
What you offer together with simler
Start with the board, for example with the NIS2 board training, and build a steady exercise rhythm from there.
NIS2 board training
For the boardOne 3-hour session
What NIS2 requires and what board members are liable for, with a baseline assessment and a first exercise. Every board member receives a certificate as evidence for the training duty.
Boardroom Readiness
For the board30–60 minutes
Executives and management work through a cyber crisis together, round by round, with an AI facilitator. The debrief records what was decided and what is still open.
Crisis Readiness
For the whole organization30–120 minutes
IT, communications, legal and executives each play their own role live, with their own information. With a score per role, improvement points on the action list and a re-test.
