We help businesses and government teams prepare to better handle business disruptions, by improving effectiveness and resilience of crisis management teams. All our simulations are designed to strengthen team bonds while building individual capabilities.
We believe that teams that exercise together regularly don't just respond faster to incidents - they respond better, with higher quality decisions and sustained performance that prevents burnout.

CyberFish was founded in 2018 on a simple premise: cyber incident response cannot be improvised. Like emergency responders, medical teams, and pilots, cyber crisis teams need practiced, instinctive reactions that only develop through realistic, progressive exercising. Our methodology goes beyond traditional tabletop exercises to create immersive scenarios based on real cyber threats. Teams face authentic technical challenges, time pressures, and decision complexities that mirror actual incident conditions.
​
Through progressive stress exposure and collaborative problem-solving, teams develop the muscle memory and psychological resilience needed for effective crisis response. This approach simultaneously builds technical competency, regulatory compliance knowledge, and the human factors that determine success under pressure.
The Neuroscience Behind Crisis Readiness
Regular practice of crisis management under realistic stress conditions creates neurological pathways that enable automatic, coordinated responses during actual incidents. This muscle memory formation is essential for maintaining performance when rational thought gives way to stress responses. Repeated exposure to realistic scenarios creates instinctive responses that function even under extreme pressure, transforming teams from reactive responders into proactive crisis managers.
CyberFish designs and delivers crisis simulations that are designed by cyber security risk management, organisational psychology and neuroscience experts to create the necessary level of detail, but also, the right level of ambiguity your teams need to simulate stressful events effectively. Our Exercising & Learning Programme was created by our interdisciplinary team.

Building Teams that Bond under Fire
“CyberFish are offering a novel solution in the cyber incident exercising and team building space. They have developed a unique methodology that helps organisations to become more resilient in the digital realm. We decided to try out their simulation exercise and found it beneficial for enhancing our cyber-security controls.”
