Microsimulations, explained.
What is a Microsimulation?
+
A Microsimulation is a short, scenario-based exercise from iluminr. Participants work through a realistic critical event, make time-bound decisions and get feedback on each one. Individual Practice takes about ten minutes; team exercises run with a full response team. Every decision is captured as evidence of capability.
What is a severe-but-plausible scenario?
+
Regulators use the term for a disruption that is extreme but could realistically happen, such as the failure of a critical vendor, a ransomware attack or a regional natural disaster. Financial institutions test whether they can keep critical services within impact tolerance under these scenarios.
How do Microsimulations support DORA, UK PS21/3 and APRA CPS 230?
+
These regimes expect financial institutions to test how they respond to and recover from severe disruption. Microsimulations let teams rehearse response decisions against severe-but-plausible scenarios and keep a record of who decided what, and when. Your compliance team maps each exercise to your specific obligations.
How can a scenario be run?
+
Run it as a Microsimulation, played individually or as a team; extend it into a full-scale simulation across teams and partners; or have the iluminr team of experts facilitate it end to end.
How are Microsimulations mapped to regulations and standards?
+
Each Microsimulation is tagged to the regulations and standards its scenario can help you evidence, such as DORA, UK PS21/3, APRA CPS 230, NYDFS Part 500 and ISO 22301. Use the coverage matrix to see where your library is strong and where gaps remain, then confirm the mapping against your own obligations.
Practice is the new proof.
Run any of these with your team and walk away with evidence mapped to your regulations, standards, and organizational priorities. 30 minutes, on your scenarios.

“When resilience becomes a regular cadence instead of a big-bang exercise, you stop drowning in action items and start identifying the trends, themes, and enterprise gaps that actually matter.”
“What began as a dreaded compliance chore is now in demand. Executives are asking for more.”
