We were delighted to once again partner with Kaspersky to host their Interactive Protection Simulation (KIPS) – remotely and all online.

Utilising the latest learning techniques and addressing all levels of the organisational structure, this exercise is effective in establishing a better security understanding amongst staff of varying roles, levels of management experience and technical knowledge. The activity allows players to discover and analyse the typical mistakes made in building cybersecurity and incident response procedures while demonstrating the real role of cybersecurity in business continuity and profitability. By establishing a better cybersecurity understanding, organisations can successfully lower the number of cyber-incidents and reduce associated financial losses, with an impact which lasts well into the longer-term.

During the exercise, participants:

• Accessed the simulation through Kaspersky’s online KIPS portal
• Made business decisions on cybersecurity strategy with real-time threat updates and dynamic outcomes
• Followed live scoreboard of all participating teams
• Communicated over voice chat with your team

They competed in teams of up to six players.
