Incident Simulation Definition: Incident Simulation is a controlled exercise that imitates a real cybersecurity incident to assess an organization's incident response capabilities and improve readiness.
Incident simulation in cybersecurity refers to the practice of creating controlled scenarios that mimic real-world cyber attacks to evaluate the readiness and response capabilities of an organization's security team and systems. This simulation helps organizations assess their incident response procedures, identify potential gaps in security controls, and improve overall security posture. It involves conducting exercises such as tabletop discussions, red team-blue team exercises, and penetration testing to proactively test and enhance the effectiveness of incident response plans.
