EU CyberNet/LAC4 in cooperation with CARICOM IMPACS, OAS and the CNCS of the Dominican Republic are organizing a regional cybersecurity exercise in action and discussion-driven table-top exercise (TTX) format, with the focus on testing cyber crisis management procedures and cross-border information sharing. The exercise also aims to raise general awareness of different cybersecurity risks and incidents and to train in collaboration on the potential response when they occur. The exercise will contribute to improving information exchange between different participating states as well as exploring the best decision-making mechanisms for the countries in the same region that simultaneously have to respond to the same or similar cyber incidents.

Participating teams from Antigua and Barbuda, Bahamas, Belize, Curacao, Dominica, the Dominican Republic, Guyana, Jamaica, St Kitts and Nevis, Saint Vincent and The Grenadines, Trinidad and Tobago, CARICOM IMPACS, Organisation of the Eastern Caribbean States and Eastern Caribbean Central Bank
