CISOs who hope to support their teams must better understand the nuances of this epidemic, which they can’t mitigate with exhortations to meditate or practice yoga. This report examines burnout in cybersecurity and guides CISOs on how to address it based on their teams’ profiles and the causes of their burnout.

RSAC Conference 2026 has come and gone. Gone, too, are the petting zoos of yesteryear, replaced this year by — of all things — pop-up tattoo parlors.
