CISM study material · question 987 of 1000

How does NIST differentiate the duration and pitch of senior-level and operational-level tabletop exercises?

  1. Both of them run for two to eight hours, with an identical set of questions put to all the participants whatever their own level in the organisation
  2. A senior-level tabletop typically runs two to four hours and an operational-level one two to eight, with questions pitched to the audience
  3. A senior-level tabletop runs for longer than an operational one does, because the decisions taken at that level take rather more discussion to reach
  4. Duration is fixed at four hours for both levels
Show the answer

Answer: B. A senior-level tabletop typically runs two to four hours and an operational-level one two to eight, with questions pitched to the audience

SP 800-84 states a senior-level tabletop exercise typically lasts two to four hours while an operational-level one lasts two to eight, and that questions should be pitched to the level of the audience.
