Operational Resilience Series: AI Interrupted: A Multi-Sector Tabletop Exercise

Cybersecurity, IT, risk, AI and operations leaders will work through a disruptive, AI-driven scenario developed by Business Resilience Council members by pressure-testing plans, decisions, and coordination under real-world constraints.

Exercise Goals Include:

• Identify areas of dependence on AI and the risks those dependencies create.
• Identify gaps in governance, trust, and oversight of AI systems, including agentic AI.
• Identify vulnerabilities in existing processes and controls that could be exposed by AI misuse or failure.
• Identify where AI adoption may outpace organizational policies and cross-functional understanding.
• Identify strategies to strengthen organizational and cross-sector readiness for AI-driven disruptions.
• Explore how AI threats could exploit organizational dependencies and response weaknesses.

Why Attend this Exercise
The GRF Business Resilience Council’s ORF Tabletop Exercise series challenges teams to test resilience, refine incident response, and share best practices through panel-led discussion with real-time inputs and data aggregation. Participants deepen their understanding of service dependencies and their organization’s ability to adapt and maintain operations across threat types.

Outcome
Discover and expose failure paths in AI workflows, uncover gaps in disruption handling, test Minimum Viable Service Levels (MVSLs), and gain actionable insights, advancing our collective resilience against operational disruptions.
