Recognized in the Gartner® Hype Cycle™ for Risk, Compliance & Audit Technologies for the third consecutive year.

Exercises that build capability. Evidence that proves resilience.

Resilience can't be proven by a few exercises a year. iluminr enables teams to run technology-led tabletops and Microsimulations at scale, building capability intelligence that helps you meet regulatory requirements.

FACTOne of the worlds largest providers of Artificial Intelligence, Chat-Thropic is experiencing a significant outage.
FACTChat-thropic has confirmed its experiencing a technology failure, but has not provided details of the cause, nor recovery timeframe.
ASSUMPTION19 critical applications have been reported to be either down, or experiencing significant degradation of service. It is suspected that these outages are directly linked to Chat-Thropic's outage.

Talking Points
"The vulnerability had a patch available - why was it not applied, and does your patch process have an exception register?"
"At what point does potential HR data exposure trigger mandatory notification in your jurisdiction?"
"If data has already been exfiltrated, how does your comms strategy change - and who makes that call?"

Practice is the new proof.

One continuous loop, from a single 10-minute simulation to a board-ready evidence trail.

Practice continuously.
Bite-sized Microsimulations complement the annual event - reaching every employee, every month.
Measure resilience.

The Platform

A Platform Built for Exercising

One platform that takes practice from a single decision to a defensible record - building capability, measuring it in real time, and turning it into evidence your board and regulators can act on.

Create & Run

Build scenarios and run exercises

A once-a-year tabletop leaves months of exposure between exercises. Configure a ready-to-go Microsimulation template, or build your own, and run it on a schedule that reaches every team throughout the year. Capability compounds with every cycle.

Assemble scenarios by role, department, or risk area. Launch in minutes, not months.
One home for every simulation, campaign, and score across the organizaation, live and always current.
Track single-player and multiplayer Microsimulations by owner, team, and date in one feed

Digital Lockdown: A Ransomware Crisis

What actions would you take immediately to prevent the spread of ransomware across other systems and data?
First, isolate all affected systems. Disable shared drives, revoke compromised credentials and block lateral network traffic. Notify the response team and activate the incident playbook for ransomware containment.
Real-time Feedback
BETA

Great start. You've prioritized containment, which is critical in preventing further spread.

Next, consider including steps for forensic evidence preservation and stakeholder communication.

Measure & Learn

Understand decisions, behaviours and capability gaps

Every decision becomes a measurable data point the instant it's made. Risk and compliance teams get a continuous, real-time view of capability across the organisation, benchmarked by department, region, and role. The evidence shows exactly where to invest next.

Context-specific AI feedback assesses responses against your organization’s plans, policies and controls as each Microsimulation runs.
Readiness benchmarked by department, region or role to show where capability is strong, inconsistent or needs improvement.
Blind spots surfaced automatically, highlighting behavioural, structural, governance and third-party dependency gaps against the way your organization is expected to respond.
Report & Prove

Give leadership evidence of resilience and improvement

Every simulation, training session and team exercise contributes to a single evidence base. From there, reports can be tailored for boards, executives, departments, risk teams or regulators. Reporting can also integrate into existing governance and assurance workflows, so evidence doesn’t sit in another silo.

Tailored reporting for every stakeholder, from board-level summaries to detailed operational and regulatory views.
One evidence base, multiple outputs, without rebuilding the story for every audience.
Integrated into existing reporting workflows, so capability intelligence flows straight into governance, assurance and compliance processes.
