This 2022 research explores the frustrations and challenges faced by cybersecurity leaders and also highlights the impact that cyber incidents have on turnover and job security. It revealed that of those who had been a CISO or IT security leader at a previous organisation, two fifths (41%) either left, or were let go, due to an attack or data breach.
