What is a Microsimulation?

A short, impactful exercise that puts teams into a realistic scenario to practice decisions, improve response and capture evidence for compliance.

How is a Microsimulation different from a tabletop exercise?

It is faster to launch, easier to repeat, and built for scale. Use it to build muscle memory between your larger tabletop or crisis exercises.

Who are Microsimulations for?

Individual team members, team cohorts, and cross-functional business units. From executives, boards, risk and cyber teams to operations and third parties. Run single-player practice or multiplayer team sessions.

How long does a Microsimulation take?

Most single-player simulations take 3-5 minutes. Multiplayer and digital tabletops typically run 30-90 minutes.

How do Microsimulations support compliance?

Scenarios map to common frameworks and regulations such as Operational Resilience, NIST, ISO, and DORA, producing audit-ready evidence.
