Interactive incident-response exercise that stages a KYC vendor bug leaking other users’ IDs to signups, affecting about 20,000 IDs leaked mostly in the US over weeks. Attendees act as incident commander: declare incident, pull logs, invoke attorney‑client privilege, shut down vendor service and pivot to manual verification as fallback. Walks through vendor contract review, decision RACI, comms cadence for execs/customers, deploying the vendor’s fix, and a postmortem — shows what to do, who to call, and what actually stops the bleed.
