Just as physical training improves strength and health, cyber fitness training keeps security professionals in shape to handle a breach at a moment's notice—prepared to duck "that virtual cyber punch in the face." 

Caleb Barlow, Vice President of IBM Security's X-Force Threat Intelligence group, discusses the importance of going beyond tabletop exercises when training teams to respond to breaches: "The more we can immerse people into what that's going to look like, the better we can train them to be resilient during that event." Barlow explains the importance of building incident response muscle memory, what we can learn from observing professionals with a military or EMS background in a cyber range environment, and responding to the ever-evolving attack surface.
