In today’s complex cyber environment, the need for cybersecurity and ability to defeat cybercriminals continues to rise. It’s estimated that by 2019, the cost of data breaches to business will increase to $2.1 trillion -- four times the cost of incidents in 2015¹. “No locale, industry, or organization is bulletproof when it comes to the compromise of data.”²

Conducted in stable, unthreatened environments that allow failure without repercussions to resources, fiscal assets or the brand, Cyber Resilience wargames encourage new, out-of-the-box thinking across an organization’s internal and external functions. Based on the Department of Defense’s time-tested procedures, the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) standards, and Unisys’ cyber commercial best practices, the wargames and exercises are tailored to each client’s specific needs, and focus on an organization’s ability to successfully detect, respond, and remediate a range of cyber threats.

Cyber Resilience wargames deliver a roadmap that guides improvement, development of new capabilities, allocation of resources, and signals impending change to the operating environment. Consequently, leaders are empowered to agilely and adaptively prepare their firms to deter, deflect, and if necessary, respond to emerging challenges or crises that could impact the life blood of their organization – in short, increase their resiliency proficiency.
