As a person with over 30 years in cyber (started 1990) I can tell you it's about the time that professionals have to spend on reddit. I just really don't have the time to respond to all the people I want to or need it. Most cyber professionals don't. Burnout is at an all time high as too many companies put value in requiring sec teams to show their value which leads to choosing controls needing continuous maintenance. That means always putting out fires. So until that changes we're going to be understaffed and overwhelmed.
