#ciso-burnout

CISOs often operate in environments where security is underfunded, under prioritised, or misunderstood at the board and C-suite level. A lack of senior-level buy-in trickles down into: Budget constraints that limit the scope and impact of the CISO function, including resources for tooling and automation. Skills shortages and restrictive operating models that prevent effective delegation. Strategic misalignment, where short-term delivery is prioritised over long-term business resilience and customer outcomes.
