Quantum Dawn IV
Quantum Dawn IV took place November 7-8, 2017 and was coordinated by SIFMA using service providers NUARI (Norwich University Applied Research Institutes), and its latest version of the DECIDE FS, and the SimSpace Corporation’s Cyber Range software for the simulation and execution of the exercise.
The exercise was not a pass/fail test, but rather an opportunity for participants to interact across functions internally and with partners externally as they exercise their crisis response and communications plans.
