Chief Security Officers (CSOs) encounter significant challenges when constructing an effective tech stack for their organization's security. These challenges include grappling with integration issues among diverse security solutions, keeping pace with rapidly evolving threats while operating within budgetary constraints, and striking a delicate balance between robust security measures and user-friendliness.
