Executive Summary

Mitiga turns cloud incident response into software: a data lake holding more than 1,000 days of a customer’s normalized cloud, SaaS, and identity logs, automated attack timelines, and managed response. The public record is thinner than the company’s claims. The headline customers, Blackstone, ZoomInfo, and New American Funding, come from the company’s own funding announcement, and Blackstone is also an investor. TechCrunch reported in 2023 that the company declined to share customer counts or revenue. The 234% new-sales growth it announced is likewise its own figure. Two founders led earlier security companies that were acquired, Deepwatch’s founding CEO now runs Mitiga, and Mandiant’s former president chairs the board. A buyer must still take Mitiga’s commercial scale on its word.
