The sheer exhaustion, organizational misalignment, and a growing sense that the job, as it is currently structured in many organizations, is not sustainable\u201d is the primary cause, says Erik Avakian, technical counselor at Info-Tech Research Group.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCISOs live in a world of constant urgency. Unexpected incidents, routine audits, board updates, third-party vendor challenges, and regulatory deadlines are part of the daily grind and come without any real off-ramps,\u201d he says. \u201cAt the same time, many are still perceived internally in their organizations as the security person rather than as a true business leader executive. That gap between responsibility and influence wears people down, particularly if the influence doesn\u2019t grow over time.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Such patterns have become ingrained in the enterprise over many years, making this a challenging issue for organizational executives to fix.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.csoonline.com\/article\/4127704\/69-of-cisos-open-to-career-move-including-leaving-role-entirely.html\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>69% of CISOs open to career move \u2014 including leaving role entirely https:\/\/www.csoonline.com\/article\/4127704\/69-of-cisos-open-to-career-move-including-leaving-role-entirely.html Publish Date:&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":212068,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.csoonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/4127704-0-19521600-1770706925-shutterstock_1218244849.jpg?quality=50&strip=all&w=1024","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[15],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-212067","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-cybersecurity"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/212067"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=212067"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/212067\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":212069,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/212067\/revisions\/212069"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/212068"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=212067"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=212067"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=212067"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
