Paper cyber-incident plans are useless once ransomware strikes, argues Jack Morris of Epiq in NLJ this week
Static compliance documents give the illusion of readiness, but real-world crises demand reflex, not reference.
Morris advocates immersive tabletop simulations—interactive exercises mirroring genuine breaches—to train teams under pressure. Such drills expose procedural gaps, align decision-makers and test legal, technical and communications responses in real time. For lawyers, they reveal how clients truly behave in crisis; for insurers, they sharpen risk pricing and reward preparedness.
These simulations transform organisations from passive planners to active defenders, making legal departments proactive partners in governance. The message: cyber resilience isn’t written—it’s rehearsed.
