Episode 15 — Spaced Retrieval Review: Preparation, Team Setup, and Training Key Moves
Spaced retrieval is a cognitive strategy used to reinforce your mastery of the preparation, team setup, and training domains before moving into the tactical phases of incident management. This episode serves as a high-yield review of the strategic foundations required for the GCIL exam, forcing you to recall the core components of readiness without the aid of notes. You should be able to articulate the purpose of an incident management policy, the structure of a high-performance team, and the value of different cyber exercise types. For example, a candidate should be able to explain the difference between a functional exercise and a full-scale exercise aloud or recite the components of a RACI matrix from memory. This review habit is essential for building the durable professional intuition needed to lead a team through the chaos of a real-world breach. By revisiting these foundational topics at regular intervals, you ensure that your knowledge remains accessible and actionable during a high-stakes testing session or a live security engagement. Mastering these preparation moves ensures that the organization is standing on a solid administrative and technical foundation.
