Strengthening Our Critical Infrastructure: NUARI's Comprehensive Approach

Recent federal changes to cyber defenses have sparked concern. NUARI is here to help, providing a comprehensive suite of services and capabilities to strengthen your digital defenses and protect against emerging threats.

NUARI's expertise in conducting resiliency exercises is well-established. Our work with the National Rural Electric Cooperative Association (NRECA) involved a large-scale distributed tabletop cybersecurity exercise, engaging over 300 participants from various locations. This exercise included scenarios related to physical intrusion, social engineering, cyber intrusion, and ransomware, demonstrating NUARI's capability to prepare organizations for complex cyber threats. Such exercises are crucial in ensuring our energy infrastructure remains secure and resilient against cyberattacks.

We have also been actively involved in enhancing election security at the state level. Cyber Florida's FirstLine state training program, in partnership with the Florida International University Jack D. Gordon Institute, recently hosted a highly successful election security tabletop exercise in Doral, Florida. The event drew an impressive crowd of over 80 participants, underscoring the importance of collaboration in safeguarding our electoral processes.

What really sets our exercises apart is the expertise of NUARI's exercise designers and facilitators. Our specialists deeply grasp the complex threats facing critical infrastructure. NUARI's team combines expertise from military, civilian, Fortune 500, and government agency backgrounds. They're skilled at creating realistic scenarios, guiding participants, and leading discussions that spark valuable insights. By drawing on NUARI's research and expertise, they help make each exercise a rich and effective learning experience.

NUARI's resiliency exercises tackle the pressing issue of workforce cyber skill gaps head-on. Our comprehensive Cybersecurity Readiness and Resiliency services assess and refine your organization's cyber strategy, pinpoint gaps, and test operational capabilities through rigorous exercises and assessments. The DECIDE® Platform takes it a step further, offering immersive resilience training that simulates real-world scenarios, so your team can respond with confidence.
