Paper test: A paper test, often referred to as a tabletop exercise, involves evaluating the effectiveness of security controls and incident response procedures through discussion-based scenarios. Participants walk through various hypothetical situations to analyze the response strategies and decision-making processes without the need for active technical intervention. This approach is widely used for training purposes and to gauge the preparedness of an organization’s security team.
