The key issue: A hacker is threatening to break into the company systems and access sensitive data,

but how they plan to attack is unknown.

Scenario: After believing they have been wronged by the company, a hacker starts emailing members

of staff threatening to hack the company database. However, the nature of the attack is unknown, and

the business needs to act fast to ensure all systems are protected.

What$$s being assessed: This scenario requires participants to plan for an attack that could come from

anywhere. They must identify weaknesses in the systems and decide very quickly how to bolster the

company$$s defences and security measures.
