Cybersecurity and Mental Health 

Founder of CyberMindz, Peter Coroneos joins us to discuss protecting the mental health of cybersecurity professionals in today’s high threat environment. We delve into the alarming preliminary findings of his latest research and how the three core metrics of burnout: cynicism/depersonalisation, emotional depletion and most notably, professional efficacy are affecting IT workers. We focus on professional efficacy, discussing the implications of; ‘success is visible, and failure is highly invisible’ in the cybersecurity profession. Peter explains how CyberMindz provides tools to effectively perceive and respond to the external threat environment, and strategies to realign burnt out individuals with their sense of mission and purpose to build a strong and resilient cyber workforce.  
 
“It’s psychological warfare. It's like spy versus spy, black spies and white spies and everyone's trying to figure out how to get around the other.”
