Shooter Threat: Event Cancellation

At a glance

Shooter Threat: Event Cancellation is a simulation from iluminr in the Physical Security category for Crisis Management, Operations and People & HR. It tests how your team protects branch & site operations, with indicative mapping to OCC / Fed / FDIC Sound Practices, FFIEC BCM Handbook and APRA CPS 230.

An active shooter crisis unfolds at a major city stadium just hours before a high-profile sporting event. Participants must address the immediate physical security threat while also evaluating the potential need for event cancellation. This involves balancing the safety of attendees and staff against the financial implications of activating event cancellation insurance
