Where do their published facts differ?
Executives and non-technical roles take part: BreachRx Matches, Cytactic Partly
BreachRx: Enterprise-wide exercises bring security, legal, privacy, IT, communications, risk, business leaders, executives and outside partners together.
Cytactic: Generated exercises include stakeholder discussions, with crisis communication and legal disclosure agents in the platform; an exercise format for executives or the board is not described.
Free start (free tier, trial or free material): BreachRx Partly, Cytactic Not in our sources
BreachRx: A free, facilitated tabletop is offered to qualifying hospitals and healthcare providers only (announced 6 October 2026).
Cytactic: Not in our sources.
Where do they match?
- Sold Tabletop and crisis simulation
- Partly Built around your own environment or tools
- Matches Reports or evidence for auditors, boards or regulators
Neither platform's pages describe: Cyber range, Hands-on lab libraries, Awareness training, Hands-on keyboard work, Price published, Sessions of an hour or less, Reaches the whole workforce.
What do they cost?
Not published; the route in is a demo. A free, facilitated exercise is offered to qualifying healthcare providers.

How do their strengths and limits compare?
Strengths
- Exercises run in the same platform used for live incident response, so gaps feed straight into playbooks and owners.
- Enterprise-wide seats: security, legal, privacy, communications, risk, executives and outside partners.
- After-action reports with executive summaries, gap analyses and prioritised improvements.
Limits
- Not a lab platform or a cyber range: no hands-on technical environment is described.
- No published price; the exercise comes as a module of an incident response platform.
Strengths
- A ready library of five crisis simulations plus a generator that drafts new ones from the organisation's profile.
- Simulation artefacts such as ransom notes, breaking news and system data appear automatically.
- Sits next to playbooks, crisis communication and legal disclosure tools.
Limits
- Not a lab platform or a cyber range: no hands-on technical environment is described.
- No published price, and board formats and measurement are not described on the pages we read.
Which one fits which team?
Look at BreachRx if you want exercises to run in the same platform as your live incident response, or if your gap is ownership and coordination across security, legal and leadership. Look at Cytactic if you want tabletop practice next to your playbooks and disclosure tools, or if you want ready-made crisis scenarios to start from.
