What businesses tell us time and time again
If something went wrong, we’re not sure what we’d do or who’s responsible. It would likely be chaotic.
Security isn’t our focus, so it’s hard to know what good looks like or where we’re vulnerable.
No one’s tested the plan or practiced a real response. We’d be figuring it out under pressure, which feels risky.
That’s where our workshops come in
We’ve designed three hands-on cybersecurity workshops to meet teams exactly where they are. Whether you’re starting from scratch, refining an existing plan or pressure-testing under real conditions, our IR experts help make sure you’re ready for whatever comes your way.
Create your IR plan from scratch
Work one-on-one with our IR experts to map out a clear, usable plan your team can follow under pressure.
Strengthen what you already have
Already got a plan? We’ll review it together, identify gaps and make sure it’s fit for the real world.
Run a live tabletop simulation
Walk through a realistic cyber attack with your team to see how you respond and where to improve.
What our customers have said
We came away with a response plan that actually works for us. Not a generic template, but something tailored to our business, our people and our risks.
We had a plan, but this workshop exposed the blind spots we didn’t know we had. The tabletop exercise was eye-opening and helped us tighten our response times across the board.
We booked the simulation and review together, and it was absolutely worth it. The workshop helped us connect the dots between policy and real-world action.
Having a one-on-one workshop meant we could focus entirely on our systems and challenges. It felt more like working with a partner than attending a training.
The session was incredibly practical. The expert advice from Conor and real scenarios that made us feel far more confident as a team.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do we really need a workshop if we already have a plan?
Yes. Many organisations have a plan on paper that’s either outdated or untested. Our incident response workshops are designed to review and strengthen what you already have. We will help your business in identifying blind spots, aligning responsibilities and ensuring your team knows exactly how to act when it counts.
Can’t we just download a template and build the plan ourselves?
Templates are a starting point, not a solution. Our incident response workshops are tailored to your systems, risks and team. This is not a one-size-fits-all checklist. We help you turn generic documents into a plan that actually works for your business
What if we don’t have any cybersecurity expertise internally?
That’s exactly who our incident response workshops are built for. You don’t need to be a security expert. Our team brings the experience and guides you through every step in plain English, helping you make confident, informed decisions.
We’re a small team. Is this really worth the investment?
Absolutely. SMEs are often the most vulnerable to cyber threats and the least resourced to recover. These incident response workshops are designed to be focused, practical and high-impact. Their core objective is to give you a solid plan and peace of mind in just one day.
What’s the difference between the three incident response workshops?
We offer three options depending on your needs:
- Build — create a plan from scratch
- Review — assess and improve what you already have
- Test — run a live tabletop exercise with your team
You can book them individually or combine sessions for a more complete approach.
Can more than one person attend the workshop?
Yes. Our incident response workshops are delivered one-on-one with your business, but there’s no limit on how many internal stakeholders can join. We encourage cross-team involvement so everyone knows their role when it matters.
Where do the workshops take place?
Our incident response workshops are delivered in person at your office or a location that works best for you. This makes it easier to focus, collaborate and simulate realistic scenarios in your own environment.
