Security fatigue gets attention for a reason. Phishing emails, authentication prompts, and constant vigilance all take a toll. But alert fatigue is the deeper, more destructive force. It overwhelms analysts, delays response, and creates blind spots that adversaries exploit. Security teams today are buried under noisy alerts and fragmented tooling. False positives waste time. Manual triage eats up valuable analyst hours. Eventually, burnout sets in and threats slip by. It is not a hypothetical risk. Some of the most significant breaches in recent years have been traced back to missed warning signs that were buried in overwhelming alert noise.
