We assembled some "nerds from the basement" to cover a key strategy in combatting evolving threats.

Today’s episode is going to take on a little different flavor, as we’re going to show you one particular tool that can impact a number of your security planning, training and discovery strategies.

While table top exercises are nothing new, we’re going to demonstrate how they’re evolving and can be customized according to your needs. We’re going to tackle the human element of cybersecurity by discussing communications strategies, and we’ll offer some insight on getting greater buy-in from throughout the organization, including the C-suite and those controlling the purse strings.

Joining me to discuss these topics and run through a mock exercise will be:

• Navroop Mitter, the CEO and founder of ArmorText. His firm is a leader in secure out-of-band communications.
• Matthew Welling, a partner at Crowell & Moring's Washington, D.C. office, where he works in the firm's Privacy & Cybersecurity Group.
• Timothy Chase, the director of the Manufacturing ISAC, a non-profit organization and leading provider of threat intelligence sharing solutions.

In addition to the table top exercise, we'll discuss:

• Communication challenges before, during and after an attack.
• Response strategies and the evolving dynamic of out-of-band communications.
• The ongoing challenges of addressing the Human Element of cybersecurity.
• The impact of regulatory efforts and how they're playing a bigger role in attack response plans.
• The types of tools or solutions that can play the biggest role in helping organizations respond to attacks more effectively.
• How to control the emotional responses that will undoubtedly emanate from an attack.
