From your profile to a ready-to-run tabletop exercise

Build a tabletop exercise around your real exposure, ready before you walk in.

Bob Vescio, Chief Innovation Officer of X-Analytics, walks through an agent in the X-Analytics AI Toolbox: the Tabletop Prep Tool agent.

Tabletop Prep is an AI agent in the X-Analytics AI Toolbox that builds a ready-to-run tabletop exercise tailored to your organization's real cyber risk exposure.

It guides you through the build from start to finish. You answer a short series of questions, and the agent assembles the setup, objectives, scenarios, and the final report for you.

The agent starts with your profile: industry, total cyber exposure, top threat vectors, and highest-risk scenarios, among other details. From there it walks you through four phases:

• Exercise setup: when the exercise runs, how long it lasts, its format, who sponsors it, and who participates
• Objectives and scope: what the exercise is designed to test, from executive decision-making to clarity of roles and authorities, plus any secondary objectives
• Scenario selection: relevant threats and exposures prioritized from your cyber risk profile, such as a ransomware-driven silent breach
• Governance and response expectations: report tone and depth, facilitation notes, quick reference cards, and the report title

The agent confirms your choices at each step and is transparent about any assumptions it makes.

• A full exercise report: executive summary, organizational context, scope, objectives, and a threat scenario overview
• A narrative, scenario, and timeline you can run with your participants and sponsors
• Quick reference cards for facilitators
• A clean path back to your profile: what you learn in the exercise can inform your profile downstream
