Today’s workers are bombarded with virtual meetings, pings from emails and messaging apps, and an endless stream of digital distraction. This information overload and the demanding pace of modern work life can create an environment where employees end up skirting cybersecurity protocol to simplify their lives and streamline their workflows to help combat digital fatigue.

According to a recent CybSafe study, 46 percent of office workers reported feeling overwhelmed with the amount of information and communications they receive at work. As a result, more than half of workers report ignoring important cybersecurity warnings and are more likely to display risky cybersecurity behaviors like clicking on phishing emails, not utilizing safe networks, setting up weak passwords or ignoring notifications to turn on multi-factor authentication (MFA).
