Why CISO Tenures Are Shortening and What It Means?

🔁 CISO tenures now often last only 18–36 months, driven by burnout, startup pace, and escalating liability concerns. The role demands constant readiness for breaches, extensive cross‑functional communication, and navigation of company politics, which many find unsustainable long term. Larger enterprises typically retain CISOs longer thanks to scale and resources. As a result, some leaders pursue fractional roles, vendor careers, or advisory positions while organizations push for clearer standards and better board-level alignment.
