Turn Uncertainty into an Advantage with a Minutes to Meltdown Simulation
Cyberattacks, outages, and ransomware have one thing in common: they are unpredictable, yet they can cause significant damage to an organization. So how can you prepare effectively? A Minutes to Meltdown simulation, offered by ITI and Commvault, is designed to meet that need for awareness and preparedness, helping protect what you have built.
Step into a critical situation to build strategic confidence
The concept behind Minutes to Meltdown is simple: simulate, in real time, a complete systems outage caused by a cyberattack, immersing you in the critical decisions that must be made under pressure. In a small group, alongside cybersecurity and data protection experts, you will see firsthand how a major crisis unfolds—and how to respond to limit the damage.
You will also leave with practical tools to review and strengthen your company’s disaster recovery plan, so you can focus on strategy and growth—not crisis management.
A powerful tool to demonstrate the importance of planning
As soon as theory turns into action, it becomes clear why strong preparation is essential. For IT leaders who struggle to demonstrate the importance of cyber resilience to executives, Minutes to Meltdown is a powerful tool. It sheds light not only on risks—which are often broader than expected—but also on the need to involve every area of the business sectors in the process to build an effective response capability and true business resilience.
Resilience protects the business and its value—not just IT
If technology is embedded across the business, your resilience plan must be enterprise-wide as well. Planning for business continuity—whatever the scenario—means being able to:
Business resilience must cover all your critical business activities. A Minutes to Meltdown workshop is an excellent exercise to ensure your plan addresses every blind spot, including legal and accountability considerations that are often overlooked.
The average cost of a data breach is more than 44.45 million, not including reputational damage and trust issues that can linger for years. Can your business withstand that kind of impact? When you look at it that way, prioritizing business resilience becomes the obvious choice—but the goal is not simply to prepare for the worst. It is to protect and maximize your investment.
Plan a Minutes to Meltdown workshop
ITI and Commvault regularly organize Minutes to Meltdown simulations, either onsite for organizations or open to the public. The workshop can be tailored to reflect your business context as closely as possible. To schedule a simulation for your IT team and leadership group—or to learn about upcoming event dates—contact your account representative or write to us.
Minutes to Meltdown helps you test your ability to make the right decisions quickly in a critical situation, such as a data breach, in order to protect business operations.
It is designed for executive teams, IT leaders, legal teams, and anyone who may be called on to make decisions during a digital crisis. This is not a technical workshop limited to technology teams—quite the opposite. The goal is to protect the business, its critical operations, and its value.
Commvault developed this cyberattack simulation, which ITI offers to its clients in partnership with them. ITI provides broad, end-to-end cyber resilience and business resilience solutions, including Commvault technologies.
