Hacking Your Anxiety

Anxiety/Stress is known to cause people to leave our field. Burnout is one of the most common problems as to why leadership/senior employees choose to move on to something else. I have wanted to put a collection of my experiences and feelings together for a long time in the hope that it could help people just coming into the business so they make better decisions than what I have during incidents/time of employment. If we can get even one person to seek out help, or utilize some of the suggestions during high stress periods in their life, we can say that we have successfully improved the stability of our field, even if it's just by a little bit.

I am Jason Azzarella and I work with Bechtel as part of the CIRT (Computer Incident Response Team). I have been part of this family for over seven years and have worked in the security field for a little over eight. Security has been more than a job for me. It has been an escape from the scary world we live in.
