Where crisis preparation truly begins

In the military, everything revolves around practice. Not because you expect things to go wrong (let’s hope not), but because without training, you wouldn’t know what to do. In organizations, we conduct fire drills, yet we find it strange to train for cyber incidents—even though the impact is at least as significant.

Why we do what we do

CCRC was founded by Eric-Jan and Kelvin, bringing together two worlds that meet in crisis situations. In the military, practicing is second nature. In the business world, it often isn’t. We believe that organizations are only truly prepared when people know what to do when plans fall away.

Vision

CCRC contributes to improving the individual cyber resilience of all participating organizations by sharing knowledge and

Mission

Increasing the cyber resilience of the Netherlands by being able to carry out chain-related cyber exercises in an accessible way.

The role of the foundation

Cybercriminals do not distinguish between large and small organizations. Preparation shouldn’t either. That is why CCRC is also a foundation. Through the foundation, we make practicing accessible to organizations with limited resources by offering training and exercises at a reduced rate. This ensures that realistic crisis preparation remains a right, not a luxury.

The team behind CCRC

CCRC is growing. Eight experienced trainers have since joined us, and that number continues to increase. We work exclusively with seniors: professionals who have stood in crisis situations themselves and know what happens when the pressure mounts. No juniors with playbooks, but people with experience, sharpness, and composure. In this way, we are building a strong network of trainers step-by-step to help organizations truly improve.
