Gauntlet removes the burden from doing exercises

Exercises are traditionally high burden to design, let alone execute, often involving months of preparation and numerous workshops. Many organisations struggle to conduct even one exercise per year. Gauntlet has been built to take away the burdens we've experienced running exercises for years, with a goal to transform exercises from a yearly ordeal into a weekly routine.

• Design - creating a scenario is simple: click to generate an inject and enter your content adding any additional resources for participants to use as necessary. You can even build an exercise from one of our templates, make any changes you want to, and be finished in minutes.
  
• Logistics - add participants to your exercise, and let Gauntlet manage invitations, notifications, and distribution of necessary content such as injects and resources, allowing users to participate from anywhere.
  
• Dynamic - adjust injects in real-time, based on the needs of the exercise or participant responses, keeping the exercise responsive and agile. Choose when to release (or not release) injects based on the progress of participants during the exercise.
  
• Data capture - Gauntlet makes it easy to capture important information, allowing facilitators to focus on the exercise and participants
  

Exercises are naturally chaotic with multiple moving parts. It is a massive undertaking to capture all the necessary information, determine what matters, and then gather outcomes and insights but Gauntlet can help. We advocate for realistic scenarios, as they result in more actionable insights about the readiness of your organisation to respond to incidents.

• Personas - exercises will usually involve entities that may not be participating, like law enforcement or other third parties. In Gauntlet, you can add these entities as personas, adding realism by enabling participants to interact with them.
  
• Integrations - Gauntlet integrates with your existing incident response tools like email and case management systems to collect the actions participants take. Integrating with your existing tools allows participants to use the tools they're familiar with just as they would in a real incident.
  
• Analytics - Gauntlet captures everything - when injects get released, when objectives are achieved and by whom, and the data from integrations. We analyse this information and provide meaningful metrics and insights - no more subjective, "gut feel" findings.
