What we focus on

  • 01

    Practical threat scenarios

    Interactive simulations that mirror common data incidents in Swiss SMEs and public organisations — phishing drills, misclassification of sensitive records, and privacy-aware file sharing.

  • 02

    Role-specific literacy

    Modules designed for executives, IT staff and front-line employees with workflows and examples relevant to each role to increase retention and applicability.

  • 03

    Policy-to-practice alignment

    We translate abstract policies into everyday checklists and decision trees that teams can apply during routine tasks and exceptional events.

  • 04

    Measurement and improvement

    Post-training assessments and scenario re-runs to quantify progress and identify specific, practical steps for improvement.

Meet the team

Small, experienced team that designs scenario-led coursework and conducts on-site or remote training sessions. Each member brings practical case experience from Swiss organizations.

Markus Keller

Lead Trainer — Data Safety Scenarios

Designs simulation exercises and oversees incident tabletop sessions. Focus on translating compliance requirements into operational steps through real-world examples and post-exercise debriefs.

Elena Fischer

Curriculum Specialist — Literacy & Communication

Creates role-based literacy modules and communication playbooks. Uses case studies from municipal and private-sector deployments to ensure materials fit Swiss workplace culture.

Daniel Smith

Technical Consultant — Risk Scenarios

Builds hands-on technical labs and supports secure configuration workshops. Emphasizes repeatable scenarios that IT and security teams can practice internally.

Approach and content

Real scenarios, measurable outcomes

Why scenario-led training works

Workshop with role-play and scenario materials

Scenario-based learning anchors abstract concepts in familiar work contexts. At DatenTopWeg we deconstruct common incidents into decision points, letting participants practise responses that align with legal and operational constraints relevant to Switzerland.

Our sessions include pre-built case studies from management, healthcare, and municipal services adapted to your internal procedures. Each case is followed by a facilitated review highlighting alternative choices, risks and mitigation steps.

Case example

In a recent municipal scenario we adapted a real file-sharing incident into a hands-on exercise that led to a revised internal checklist and a simplified approval flow for sensitive documents.

Training modules

Example of a training module checklist

Modules combine short lectures, role-play, and practical labs. Each module is grounded in a use case and ends with an actionable checklist tailored to participant roles.

  • Incident recognition and escalation
  • Data classification and handling scenarios
  • Everyday secure collaboration practices

Delivery formats

We deliver single-day intensives, multi-session literacy programs, and recurring tabletop exercises. Formats are chosen based on operational needs and the complexity of the scenarios chosen for practice.

Start with a scenario audit

A focused half-day audit maps your current workflows to common incident templates and delivers a short report with prioritized practical steps.

Deep dive

Detailed program outline

DatenTopWeg delivers data safety and literacy programs built from concrete cases and realistic scenarios. Rather than abstract directives, our curriculum uses step-by-step incident walkthroughs: for example, a simulated phishing event tailored to a management department, or a misdirected data transfer scenario for municipal services. Each session includes role assignments, a scripted timeline of events, and decision checkpoints where participants choose responses and then compare outcomes. Trainers facilitate reflections that transform lessons from the exercise into immediate changes: updated checklists, refined escalation trees, and modified access patterns. After-class materials contain scenario replay instructions so teams can rerun simulations internally. We emphasize measurable learning objectives and provide simple assessments and follow-up exercises so organisers can see which decision points were most challenging. All content is adapted to Swiss legal and operational contexts and includes examples drawn from common incidents in Switzerland's public and private sectors. Practical outputs include a one-page action checklist per role, a sample incident report template and a prioritized list of small, operational changes that teams can implement without major procurement or restructuring.

Scenario audit

Half-day mapping of existing practices to common incident templates, with a short report and recommended scenarios for workshops.

Role-based workshops

Targeted sessions for executives, IT and operational staff that focus on decisions relevant to each group and include practical handouts.

Follow-up exercises

Short, repeatable drills and assessments that help teams maintain skills and measure improvement over time.
