The cybersecurity industry is experiencing a mental health crisis. Professionals work extraordinarily long, arduous hours seeking to prevent, mitigate and respond to the next major attack. And they do this knowing that the fate of their business, their data, and perhaps people’s lives, are on the line. Practitioners in this field can no longer afford to dismiss the impact that stress and burnout have on the cyber workforce. They need tools and strategies to combat the mental strain that burdens them. In this interactive session, “10% Happier” author and podcast host Dan Harris will draw on his personal experiences, as he demonstrates how to tame anxiety through meditation and other stress management practices.
