Pay rates for IT security professionals are rising faster than inflation, but burnout and stress are growing faster. A survey of UK security professionals revealed the fast pace of modern security and the risk of unknown failure is causing skilled practitioners to leave the field. Would yet more pay fix the problem, or is there another way to address IT security staff retention? This and more on the Rundown.

Every Friday, Tom Hollingsworth, Alastair Cooke, and Stephen Foskett gather to sort through the constant stream of announcements, mergers, and debates that define the information technology landscape. Their Tech Field Day News Rundown isn't just a headline recap; it's a conversational dissection where industry veterans apply decades of hands-on experience to separate genuine innovation from mere hype. You'll hear them debate the practical implications of a new chip architecture, unpack the real cost of a cloud service change, or trace how a security flaw might ripple through enterprise networks. The discussion is grounded, often witty, and always aimed at the professionals who build and maintain the systems we all rely on. This weekly podcast from Tech Field Day provides the essential context behind the news, turning a simple rundown into a valuable tool for understanding where technology is truly headed. It’s like sitting in on a Friday afternoon debrief with colleagues who’ve seen it all, making the complex world of IT feel a bit more manageable and a lot more interesting.
