Test Your Mettle: Announcing the SecurePost Incident Response Simulator
By The SecurePost Team on 7/19/2025

It's 2 AM. Your phone buzzes with a high-priority alert. A critical server is sending suspicious traffic to an unknown IP address. The clock is ticking, every decision matters, and the fate of the company rests on your shoulders.
Sound familiar? For many security professionals, this is the reality they train for. Today, we're excited to give you a chance to test your skills in a safe, interactive environment.
Introducing the SecurePost Incident Response Simulator
We're thrilled to launch the Incident Response Simulator, a brand new, free tool for the security community. It's a "choose your own adventure" style game where you step into the shoes of a senior analyst during a live security crisis.
From initial alert to post-incident analysis, you'll face a series of critical decisions:
- Do you isolate the system immediately or gather more evidence first?
- How do you handle a ransomware demand?
- When is the right time to escalate to leadership?
Each choice you make has consequences, affecting your score and the outcome of the incident.
Why We Built This
At SecurePost, our goal is not just to connect you with jobs, but to be a valuable resource for your entire career. We wanted to create something that was more than just another article—something engaging, challenging, and genuinely useful. The simulator is a fun way to:
- Sharpen your decision-making skills in a pressure-free environment.
- Think through complex incident response scenarios.
- Benchmark your instincts against best practices.
Get Your Grade and Share Your Results
At the end of the simulation, you'll receive a performance grade—from "Expert Responder" to "Major Incident." We encourage you to share your results on LinkedIn or X (formerly Twitter) and challenge your colleagues to see if they can beat your score!
