This week in cybersecurity from the editors at Cybercrime Magazine
Sausalito, Calif. – Apr. 15, 2026– Read the full story from RSAC
The top line on chief information security officer pay packages in 2026 is that CISOs are earning more than ever, writes Steve Morgan, founder of Cybersecurity Ventures and Editor-in-Chief at Cybercrime Magazine, in a new blog post for RSAC Conference.
But, with an 11 percent turnover rate for the position, the bottom line is that no matter how much a CISO earns, there’s always the chance they will bolt out the door.
In 2026, CISO annual pay packages range from $150,000 to $1 million and more. The bigger the company, the higher the pay. Fortune 100 CISOs often far exceed reported averages, with a select few hauling in as much as $5 million per year.
One survey reports that CISOs in the technology and services sector earn the highest total compensation on average, largely driven by equity and long-term incentives.
For more information on the HR side of security chiefs, the 2026 CISO Report from Cybersecurity Ventures in partnership with Sophos reports on burnout, certifications, job satisfaction, and more.
