06:47, Monday
A tabletop exercise, compressed into one morning. Ransomware on the plant floor of a fictional machinery manufacturer. You are the CISO; the regulatory clocks are the antagonist. Every decision costs time.
Fictional exercise — companies, people, and systems are invented. Not legal advice.
The brief
Your role
CISO
Awareness
MON 06:47
The organization
Norddeutsche Präzisionswerke GmbH — 640 staff, three lines, one MES.
You are the CISO. A ransom note is on every operator panel on line 3 and the MES front end is down. The lines are still running. Three regulatory clocks start the moment you are aware — and you are aware now. Every decision costs time. The clocks do not pause. This is the exercise.
