Every event requires a set of initial response activities. These activities are usually termed as "Incident Response" or "Emergency Response" activities. They more clearly define our instinctive reaction to how we provide for our safety and protection when an incident occurs. These activities may also include an attempt to communicate with others, family, friends, co-workers, or emergency officials. Once an initial response has been achieved following an event, a decision to implement either one or more of the organization's response plans is determined. One of the obligations all enterprise executives share is ensuring the survival of the enterprise in the event of disaster, either a natural disaster like Hurricane Sandy, or an unnatural disaster like an act of terrorism. Developing, documenting, and deploying an enterprise disaster recovery or business continuity plan can be a difficult, time-consuming exercise. Testing a business continuity plan can be an expensive proposition. As such, many enterprise planners are embracing "Tabletop" exercises as a more economical approach to plan validation. Tabletop tests are similar in concept to the training pilots receive in aircraft simulators, and are useful in enabling business continuity personnel to practice their skills in a safe environment.
