Cybersecurity Tabletop Exercise (TTX) Design & Facilitation Workshop

This in-person tabletop exercise (TTX) training workshop is designed for professionals who want to do more than participate in tabletop exercises—they want to run their own.

Participants will experience a facilitated cyber incident tabletop while also learning how to design, conduct, and document tabletop exercises that support incident response readiness and CMMC Level 1 and Level 2 assessment objectives.

This workshop blends hands-on participation with practical instruction, giving attendees the tools and confidence to take tabletop exercises back to their own organizations.

What You’ll Learn

Participants will learn how to:

Design tabletop exercises aligned to organizational size, mission, and risk

Build realistic scenarios and injects that drive meaningful discussion

Facilitate tabletop exercises across technical and non-technical roles

Capture decisions, assumptions, and gaps during an exercise

Conduct effective hot washes and after-action discussions

Use tabletop exercises to support CMMC Level 1 and Level 2 practices, including incident response and operational readiness

You’ll see how a tabletop unfolds in real time, then break down why it was structured that way and how to replicate it.

What You’ll Experience

A guided, facilitator-led cyber incident scenario

Small-group participation with progressive injects

Real-time discussion and decision-making

Instructor walkthroughs of scenario design and facilitation techniques

Practical guidance on documentation and lessons learned

Templates and approaches you can reuse for your own exercises

Securing the Connected Transit Ecosystem: Why Next-Generation Systems Demand Next-Generation Testing
2026-02-17 11:30 - 12:30 | Auburn University Research and Innovation Campus, 345 Voyager Way, Huntsville, AL, 345 Voyager Way, Huntsville, United States
The NAC-ISSA February 2026 lunch will be chapter sponsored. We are proud to present our chapter member and former chapter president, Jason Cuneo. Jason has worked with large municipalities in the US to secure their mass transit systems. Join us for a look into a different segment of cybersecurity than you may typically think about.

Mass transit systems are rapidly adopting interconnected vehicle, infrastructure, and control technologies to improve safety, efficiency, and situational awareness. While these advances enable powerful new operational capabilities, they also introduce attack surfaces that traditional security testing approaches were never designed to evaluate. This presentation reviews prior research and recent security test events conducted on mass transit platforms, highlighting how enterprise-centric vulnerability assessment methodologies fall short in highly dynamic, V2X-enabled environments.

Additionally, we will discuss new testing methods including realistic traffic generation scenarios, protocol-aware threat emulation, and understand how attackers conduct modern vehicular platform attacks. This talk will conclude with recommendations for developing a more robust, reconfigurable testing environment that can keep pace with next-generation transit technologies.

Walton’s Southern Table will provide the catering. Door prize to be announced.

Tech Thursday: Making Your Own Wireshark Dissector for Mysterious and Unknown Protocols
2026-02-19 18:00 - 20:00 | Gigaparts, Address 6123 University Drive, Huntsville, 35806, United States
Presenter: Doogie

NAC-ISSA and DC256 present our second Tech Thursday of 2026 at Gigaparts on Feb 19 at 6:00PM. This hands-on workshop moves beyond filtering and display into the craft of understanding undocumented protocols and using that knowledge to create a reusable Wireshark dissector.

Attendees will walk away with their own network protocol dissector that can be used in any Wireshark instance.

Attendees should already understand networking basics, such as the OSI model, IP addresses, MAC addresses, the differences between TCP and UDP, and the concept of port numbers. Familiarity with Wireshark is recommended.

The event is open to anyone interested in cyber security, is free and pizza will be provided.

DC256 Presents: Artificial Doubt: The Collapse of Trust in Digital Materiel
2026-02-20 18:00 - 20:00 | GigaParts, 6123 University Dr NW, Huntsville, 35806, United States
Join DC256 at GigaParts on February 20th @ 6:00PM! Rodney V. will be giving a presentation — Digital Trust: The Collapse of Trust in Digital Materiel. We will also be making a special announcement at the event, so stay tuned!

For decades, digital evidence has quietly relied on a fragile assumption that authenticity could be inferred after the fact. Hashes, metadata, chain-of-custody forms, and expert testimony were “good enough” when fabricating convincing images, video, or audio was expensive and rare. Generative AI shattered that assumption and we need better means of security against threats that exploit this ambiguity.

This month’s presentation is sponsored by the North Alabama Chapter – Information Systems Security Association (NAC-ISSA). The event is free to attend, registration not required.
