Backdoors & Breaches: Live Tabletop Exercise Demo
summary
Backdoors & Breaches is a free, brandable tabletop for incident response with 80,000 decks in circulation and a hosted web version at play.backdoorsandbreaches.com. The demo shows specific attack cards (Password Spray, Trusted Relationship, Exploitable External Service), lists attacker tools (SprayingToolkit, FireProx, Metasploit, Hydra, MSOLSpray) and defender techniques (SIEM, UEBA, firewall log review, memory analysis with Velociraptor/Volatility). Gameplay uses a 20‑sided roll (1–10 fail, 11–20 succeed), inject cards for chaos, and an ICS/OT deck (noted quirk: a toilet theme to fix).
