💻 Cybersecurity Burnout: A Risk Talent Acqu Leaders & CISOs Can No Longer Ignore 🔥 Cyber teams are passionate, but many are burning out. Tony, a cyber awareness pro at a UK retailer, recalls long nights, constant alerts, and “always-on” pressure taking a serious toll. “If you think you might be burning out,” says ex-UKHSA head Andrew Tillman, “you’re already on your way there.” 📉 ISC2’s 2024 study shows job satisfaction in cyber dropped to 66%, with burnout now a major issue. Teams are expected to “do more with less” while ransomware gangs and state-backed actors never sleep. 🧠 Younger staff are especially vulnerable. Constant alerts, blame culture, and high-stakes pressure can have long-term mental health impacts. 👩💼👨💻 What HR and CISOs can do: - Treat burnout like a critical security threat ✅ - Spot early warning signs: sleep, diet, exercise ⚠️ - Build psychological safety & celebrate wins 💡 - Consider protections similar to first responders 🚨 ⚠️ Burnout isn’t just personal — it’s a business risk. Protect your people, protect your security. #CyberSecurity #Burnout #HRLeadership #CISO #EmployeeWellbeing #TechResilience #MentalHealth #AGSCyber #CyberTalent https://lnkd.in/e3jNua5q
