SEESIM 12 Broad Scenario

“A series of coordinated cyber attacks against the governments of South Eastern Europe followed by biological and/or chemical terrorist attacks on two or three countries with transnational ramifications. A large natural disaster also occurs. These events result in a breakdown of communications and widespread destruction and loss of life. This prompts a comprehensive civilian, military, and political approach by relevant Government and Nongovernment Organizations in the participating nations in performing essential tasks and exercising the responsibilities necessary to respond to national and regional emergencies. These tasks promote: Counterterrorism; Counter proliferation of weapons of mass destruction (WMD), their materials, technologies, know-how, and delivery systems; Transnational and regional cooperation in South Eastern Europe; Border and energy security; Protection of critical infrastructure; Cyber defense capabilities; Emergency response capacities of participating nations; Disaster Relief Operations (DRO); Coordinated, effective responses to transnational threats; Consequence management; Intelligence and Information sharing, collaboration and interoperability; Global communications; and Realistic national training objectives."

Exercise Control (EXCON) Purpose

• Ensure that training takes place by using injects to drive the Training Audience in the direction we want them to go

• Provide an environment that increases realism and enhances the training experience

• Coordinate activities of all control elements to ensure a consistent and coherent picture is presented to the Training Audience

• Capture lessons learned to improve future planning and training

SEESIM 12 SEESIM 12

UNCLASSIFIED29

Exercise Control Critical Elements

• Scenario events must be injected in a realistic manner to stimulate Training Audience response

• Must monitor all Training Audience reports, communications, briefings, etc for desired action

• If Training Audience action is not the desired action, initiate additional injects as required to maintain the training effect

• Must keep all control activities transparent to the Training Audience

SEESIM 12 SEESIM 12

UNCLASSIFIED30

EXCON Main

• EXCON Main will be located in Charalitza, Bulgaria

• EXCON Main provides the central focus for consolidation of information, coordination of events, and overall direction for the exercise

• All changes or additions to the MEL/MIL must be approved by the Scenario Manager before being sent to the Training Audience

SEESIM 12 SEESIM 12

UNCLASSIFIED34

Keys to Effective Control

• Know the MEL/MIL• Know the basic functions of all EXCON control

elements• Coordinate activities with appropriate

personnel• Read the news articles• Use the Daily EXCON Meetings and MEL/MIL
