Professional Incident Response Tabletop Exercise UK for SMEs and MSPs

In an era of sophisticated ransomware like LockBit and Cl0p, technical controls are only half the battle. A successful defence depends on how your team communicates, decisions are made under pressure, and regulatory obligations are managed. Gridisys tabletop exercises are designed to move beyond theory, forcing your leadership and IT teams to confront realistic crisis scenarios. By integrating our managed SOC methodologies into your rehearsal, we identify critical gaps in your communication chain and decision-making processes before a real threat actor forces the issue.

For FCA-regulated firms, the cybersecurity consulting landscape is increasingly complex, with PS21/3 requirements demanding clear operational resilience. Similarly, UK GDPR mandates that organisations demonstrate their ability to restore access to personal data promptly. Our exercises are mapped specifically to these regulatory requirements, providing your compliance team with documented evidence of testing. Whether you are dealing with SRA compliance in the legal sector or general data protection, we ensure your incident response documentation is audit-ready and defensible.

We believe transparency is key to building cyber resilience. Unlike consultancy firms that charge open-ended fees, Gridisys offers a fixed-price engagement that provides a structured, high-impact outcome. Our service covers everything from initial design and facilitation to a detailed post-exercise report. We simulate scenarios ranging from supply chain compromise and phishing campaigns to full-scale ransomware exfiltration. By choosing our service, you get the benefit of our experience in cyber essentials compliance and real-world attack mitigation, ensuring no stone is left unturned in your preparation.

UK SMEs are often targeted not because they have the most data, but because they have the weakest perimeter defences. Our scenarios are built on real-world threat intelligence, reflecting how attackers exploit misconfigurations in Microsoft Entra security or compromise third-party software. By running these exercises, we help your business move from a reactive posture to a proactive one. We don't just find flaws in your tech; we find flaws in your assumptions, ensuring your team knows exactly who to call and how to contain a threat when the clock is ticking.
