🧯 CISO Alert: Security Tool Fatigue Is Real — and Dangerous

More tools ≠ more security. In fact, 68% of orgs use 11+ security tools — and many are facing alert fatigue, talent strain, and visibility gaps.

💬 Key lessons for CISOs:

🔹 More dashboards = less clarity. Tool sprawl leads to noise, missed threats, and wasted budget.
🔹 Redundant tools ≠ value. Many platforms overlap, offering the same functions in different UIs.
🔹 Talent gets stretched thin. New tools require onboarding, management, and integration.
🔹 The illusion of coverage. Without full ecosystem visibility, risks go unnoticed and unowned.

✅ Solutions that work:
・Take inventory of tools and evaluate actual usage.
・Prioritize integration over expansion.
・Invest in training and unifying data—not flashy features.
・Embrace platform consolidation for long-term security resilience.
