Space ISAC Crisis Simulation Tabletop Exercise

Space ISAC’s immersive exercise is designed to challenge and enhance the incident response capabilities of the global space community.

Join us on Tuesday, November 19, from 9:00 AM – 12:00 PM for Space ISAC’s Crisis Simulation Tabletop Exercise. This limited attendance workshop, organized by Space ISAC, offers an international experience utilizing the follow-the-sun model. It incorporates elements such as human search and rescue, cyber-focused capabilities, and expertise, as well as scenarios involving launch and re-entry, and elements from the In-Space Assembly and Manufacturing (ISAM) community.

This global exercise is focused on commercial and government preparedness for a variety of threats facing the space systems owner during a mission. From cybersecurity to space weather to threats to human life, this exercise will address the various roles global governments play in information sharing with industry during a crisis.

Audience for the Tabletop Exercise:
C-Suite Executives

Specifically, CIOs, CTOs, CISOs, and their teams who are responsible for overseeing both physical and cyber security.

Government Officials

A significant portion of the participants will be from government agencies, with a target ratio of 25% government attendees.

System Owners

Those who manage and operate space systems across industries to maintain the resilience and reliability of these critical infrastructures.

Industry Leaders

Representatives from companies that design, build, and secure space infrastructure, including multinationals and those expanding into the U.S. market.

What to Expect During the Exercise:

  • Crisis Simulation: The exercise will focus on simulating a crisis, such as an attack on a space system, followed by an incident response. Participants will be divided into teams, each representing a different commercial company with specific roles in the scenario.
  • Interactive Participation: Teams will work through a series of modules during the 3-hour exercise, responding to simulated crises and coordinating with other stakeholders, including government representatives.
