The Workforce Under Pressure: Burnout, Skills Gaps and Organizational Risk (#1)

About this opportunity

Cybersecurity professionals are under more pressure than ever—with 90% of teams reporting skills gaps, 67% facing staffing shortages, and burnout rising across roles. In this opening session, we reveal the latest workforce data from ISC2, CyberSN and Cybermindz to unpack the human and operational impacts of today’s talent crisis. Speakers will explore how stress, role ambiguity, and unsustainable workloads are accelerating risk—both personal and organizational—and introduce the concept of mental resilience as an essential component of operational readiness. Attendees will gain insights into identifying burnout risks in themselves and their teams, along with practical guidance for setting healthier boundaries at work.
