In this episode of Mitiga Mic, Brian Contos sits down with Greg Fitzgerald, co-founder of Sevco Security, for a candid conversation on the real state of asset visibility, prioritization, and the evolving challenges facing security teams. With nearly three decades in the industry, Fitzgerald brings perspective on how cybersecurity has shifted from endpoint tools to orchestration-wide awareness. And why that shift is critical for cloud, SaaS, AI, and identity defense. Watch the episode or read the full transcript below.

In recent weeks, a sophisticated threat group has targeted companies using Salesforce’s SaaS platform with a campaign focused on abusing legitimate tools for illicit data theft. Mitiga’s Threat Hunting & Incident Response team, part of Mitiga Labs, investigated one such case and discovered that a compromised Salesforce account was used in conjunction with a “Salesforce Data Loader” application, a legitimate bulk data tool, to facilitate large-scale data exfiltration of sensitive customer data.

By the time the alarms go off, it’s often too late. A trusted third-party security tool, one that promised to protect your cloud and SaaS environments, has been operating with unchecked ‘god-mode’ privileges. These tools, usually classified as SaaS Security Posture Management (SSPM) or Data Security Posture Management (DSPM), have been granted near-unrestricted access to your data, configurations, and secrets.

In this episode of Mitiga Mic, Brian Contos, Field CISO at Mitiga, sits down once again with Ofer Maor, CTO and Co-founder, to break down one of today’s most urgent cybersecurity challenges: the intersection of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Detection & Response. From the Automated SOC to AI-powered attackers and cloud-based AI infrastructure threats, Ofer outlines the three pillars of AI-DR (AI Detection and Response) and what organizations need to know now and in the near future.

From August 4 to 11, Mitiga will be on the ground in Las Vegas for Black Hat USA, DEF CON, and BSides Las Vegas. If you’re responsible for cloud security, SaaS threat detection, or incident response, this is your opportunity to connect directly with our team.

In this episode of Mitiga Mic, we sit down with cybersecurity veteran Joseph Salazar, now with Bastille Networks, to uncover the vast and often invisible world of wireless attack surfaces. From Bluetooth-enabled coffee mugs and smart thermostats to malicious USB cables that launch attacks from parking lots, Joseph walks us through real-world threats that operate outside your firewall and beyond traditional security tools.
