The Burnout Nobody Talks About: When “Always-On” Leadership Becomes a Liability
Tags: business, cybersecurity, data, incident response, international, resilience, risk, risk-management, skills, threatIn cybersecurity, being “always on” is often treated like a badge of honor. We celebrate the leaders who respond at all hours, who jump into every incident, who never seem to unplug. Availability gets confused with commitment. Urgency gets mistaken for effectiveness. And somewhere along the way, exhaustion becomes normalized”, if not quietly admired. But…

No more orange juice? Why one ship reveals America’s maritime cybersecurity crisis
This is a workforce problem, not a vendor problem: The new regulations require all 3,000 MTSA facilities to designate a cybersecurity officer (why the Coast Guard named them CySOs and couldn’t just call them CISOs, I do not know). Finding hundreds of qualified people who understand both operational technology in maritime environments and cybersecurity is…
