About DrillsForge
Enterprise tabletop exercise platform for cyber, physical security, and crisis management teams.
Our Mission
DrillsForge exists to make realistic, high-quality tabletop exercises accessible to every security team — not just those with six-figure consulting budgets. We believe that regular, structured practice is the single most effective way to prepare organizations for incidents that matter: ransomware outbreaks, insider threats, active-shooter events, supply-chain compromises, and everything in between.
Our platform removes the logistics bottleneck from exercise programs. Security leaders can launch a fully-configured tabletop in minutes instead of weeks, run it with distributed teams across time zones, and receive an AI-generated after-action report the moment the exercise concludes.
What We Do
DrillsForge is a cloud-hosted, multi-tenant platform purpose-built for tabletop exercises:
- Scenario Library — A growing catalog of professionally-authored scenarios covering cyber security, physical security, business continuity, and executive crisis response. Each scenario includes timed injects, role assignments, and scoring rubrics.
- Live Exercise Engine — Facilitators guide participants through scenario injects in real time. Players submit decisions, observers monitor, and the platform tracks every action with timestamps and audit trails.
- AI-Powered Reactive Injects — Our locally-hosted AI engine generates realistic follow-up injects based on player decisions, turning static scripts into dynamic, branching exercises.
- Automated After-Action Reports — Every completed session produces a detailed AAR with scores, response-time analysis, and improvement recommendations — no manual write-up required.
- Multi-Tenant Architecture — Each organization gets an isolated workspace (e.g.,
acme-cyber.drillsforge.com) with its own users, scenarios, sessions, and data — fully separated from every other customer.
Who We Serve
DrillsForge is designed for organizations that take preparedness seriously:
- Corporate Security Teams — CISOs, SOC managers, and incident response leads who need a repeatable exercise program without external consultants.
- Physical Security & Safety — Directors of security, emergency managers, and safety officers conducting workplace violence, active threat, and evacuation drills.
- Government & Defense — Federal, state, and local agencies running interagency coordination exercises and national preparedness scenarios.
- Critical Infrastructure — Energy, healthcare, financial services, and transportation operators required to demonstrate regulatory exercise compliance.
- Managed Security Providers — MSSPs and consultancies delivering tabletop exercise programs to multiple clients from a single platform.
Our Principles
- Privacy by Design — Exercise data stays in your workspace. Our AI runs locally; no customer data is sent to third-party language model APIs.
- Speed Over Ceremony — Launch a full exercise in under five minutes. No slide decks, no scheduling nightmares, no post-exercise report delays.
- Realistic Complexity — Exercises should feel like real incidents — ambiguous, evolving, and multi-stakeholder — not checkbox compliance drills.
- Team-First — The platform is built for collaboration. Facilitators, players, and observers each get purpose-designed interfaces.
- Measure What Matters — Structured scoring and trend analysis across sessions so teams can track real improvement over time.
Technology
DrillsForge is built with simplicity and operational security in mind:
- Hosted on hardened infrastructure with tenant-level data isolation.
- AI content generation (reactive injects, AAR narratives) powered by a locally-deployed language model — no data leaves the platform.
- Role-based access control (Facilitator, Player, Observer) with session-scoped permissions.
- Real-time session updates via server-sent events — no polling, no page refreshes.
- All exercise data encrypted at rest and in transit.
