In this episode of Voices in the Channel, we’re joined by Anna Webb, Global Director at Kocho, to explore the human cost of cybersecurity and the pressure faced by those working behind the scenes to keep organisations secure.

We discuss the constant state of hypervigilance, the fear of things going wrong, and the impact this can have on job security, wellbeing, and long-term career sustainability. From burnout and stress to the realities of handling high-stakes incidents and breaches, Anna shares a candid perspective on what it really takes to operate in such a demanding environment.

This is a powerful conversation about the unseen emotional toll of cybersecurity, and why supporting the people behind the protection is just as important as the technology itself.
