The Great Resignation in DFIR

In this episode, co-hosts Desi, Si, and Christa compare and contrast the concerns and pressures of the DFIR world vs. other industries. Starting with burnout as a function of increases in both cyber incidents and online crime, we also discuss:

- The risks of backfilling gaps in cyber without computer science fundamentals.
- More work and fewer resources leading to backlogs, which factor in burnout and resignations as well as actions like the UK barristers' strike.
- The importance of mentorship, representation, and manager training to facilitate strong team dynamics and mitigate risks.
