What are the different tools and techniques for measuring the success of a large-scale cybersecurity exercise? We asked this question to the planner of Army Cyber Spartan 23, Daz Preuss, in our most recent webinar, where he walked us through the process of organizing this exercise. Organized by the British Army, ACS '23 was the latest iteration of a large-scale Live Fire training that brought together 320 participants from 6 different countries. Measuring success is one of the key components when it comes to conducting a cyber exercise, and it is important to set certain processes to get proper feedback and make improvements for the future. 🎥 Have a look at the full webinar session on our YouTube Channel: https://lnkd.in/dA_YBUKE 👉 Learn more about the Army Cyber Spartan '23 exercise: https://lnkd.in/d_C65iUu
