Listen "Cyber stress: are we burning out?"
Episode Synopsis
Is stress unavoidable, if you work in cyber?
And does workplace stress in the industry threaten security?
Stress and burnout among cyber teams are now a real worry for CISOs. And our guest for this episode argues that they should be a concern for boards too.
Stressed-out operators underperform and make mistakes. Burned out staff are more likely to leave, forcing firms to spend more on hiring and training replacements.
So how should employers spot the signs of stress? And what can we do as individuals to avoid burn out?
Our guest is Katie Maycock, of GYST Wellbeing.
