Tackling cybersecurity burnout, once and for all

The cybersecurity sector isn’t exactly known for its calm and relaxing pace. If you’ve chosen to pursue a career in it, chances are you’re well aware of this. But there’s a stark difference between a fast-paced job and chronic burnout.

The exciting, challenging nature of the job is often what first attracts many, offering growth and development opportunities on a daily basis, but it’s often too easy for the workload to tip over the limit, resulting in the physical, mental, and emotional exhaustion characterized by chronic stress and burnout.

In fact, recent research shows that 76% of cybersecurity professionals experienced fatigue or burnout over the last year.
