Analyst Burnout Is an Advanced Persistent Threat

The cybersecurity industry is facing a critical crisis due to analyst burnout, with high turnover rates and unsustainable stress levels among CISOs. This burnout is not just a talent shortage but a systemic issue stemming from a lack of support and recognition for the human element in cybersecurity operations. To address this, the industry needs to prioritize supporting analysts, leveraging AI to augment their expertise rather than replace it, and creating a more rewarding work environment.
