Cyber Talks - Break Things Safely: A High-Value Cyber Exercise Program with Daniel Hammond

from Bare Metal Cyber · host Dr. Jason Edwards

Don’t wait to learn the fire drill while the building’s on fire. In this Cyber Talk developed by BareMetalCyber.com, Army veteran and cyber resilience strategist Daniel Hammond shows how to move past check-the-box drills and turn exercises into a core learning culture. He walks through goal-driven planning (so every exercise serves a sponsor’s real need), the HSEEP spectrum from seminars and workshops to tabletops, drills, and full-scale events, plus when to go operations-based, run no-notice tests, and invite regulators, comms, and third-party partners into the room. Daniel shares hard-won lessons from building programs at Fortune 500s: validating response playbooks, avoiding “single-layer defense” with purple teaming, closing gaps regulators spot across your industry, and using board briefings to turn findings into funding. If you lead incident response, risk, or compliance—and you want confident teams that discover blind spots before adversaries do—this talk is for you. Join us, bring questions, and leave with practical patterns you can run this quarter.
