Mitiga Mean Time to RespondDetect in seconds. Respond at machine speed.

Powered by Helios AIDR and the Helios Fleet of agents, Mitiga delivers MTTR at the speed attackers move, from event to triage, to actionable response in under 3 minutes.

A dial measuring a 30-minute window. Mitiga's detection completes in the first 3 minutes; the average attacker breakout lands at 29 minutes.

What is Mean Time to Respond?

Mean Time to Respond (MTTR) is the time from an event to an alert an analyst can act on, including vendor delay, collection, and triage. Every result is enriched and AI-triaged before it ever reaches your team.

The problemAttackers already move at machine speed. Most SOCs don’t.

The time from initial access to lateral movement is measured in seconds. Legacy detection pipelines, with batch scans, daily posture checks, and manual triage, aren’t built to keep pace. By the time a human analyst opens the alert, the attacker has already moved on.

The answerMitiga’s new detection pipeline cuts MTTR to under 3 minutes

For real-time detections, the alerts that make up the majority of day-to-day SOC activity, Mitiga detects, enriches, triages, and delivers to your team in under three minutes, start to finish.

This is a new architecture, built from the ground up for the infrastructure attackers target across cloud, SaaS, identity, and AI. Machine-speed detection for complex, pattern-based detections that need hours of accumulated data will follow.

How we get to under 3 minutes

Mean Time to Respond (MTTR) is the time from an event to an alert an analyst can act on, including vendor delay, collection, and triage.

  1. Your sources

    0:00

    Cloud, SaaS, identity, AI, third parties. Event-driven pull every minute, or pushed by vendor.

  2. Detectors

    0:40

    Single-event detectors run on the stream as each event lands, under 3 minutes from data arrival. Behavioral detectors run on hourly windows.

  3. Enrichment and AI triage

    1:20

    Identity, asset, and history pulled from the forensic data lake. Severity is set, noise is closed, and the incident is stitched as it arrives.

  4. Your SOC and response

    <3:00

    Triaged alert in your SIEM, SOAR, ticket queue, or chat, with a response action attached and auto-run where you allow it.

02.2

What lands in your queue

From event to triaged, actionable alert. One illustrative response, start to finish.

How it worksMeet Helios Fleet: six AI agents, one data layer, one mission

Helios Fleet is Mitiga’s system of six specialized AI agents. Each owns one SOC job. All six share one memory and run on one normalized data layer spanning cloud, SaaS, identity, and AI, so every handoff carries full context.

Together they cover the entire threat lifecycle at machine speed, from prepare through detect and analyze, contain and recover, and learn and prevent. Every case feeds back into better detections.

04Learn & prevent↺

“Which global threat campaigns am I exposed to, and have I already been hit?”

Scans threat intel for emerging campaigns relevant to your environment, then hands Hunter a tailored hunt and Forge new detections.

Target outcome

Validate your exposure to every relevant threat campaign, and protect against it.

“Is this happening in my environment right now?”

Turns a plain-language question, “Is anyone using our AI model keys from outside the company?”, into a threat hunt across cloud, SaaS, identity, and AI.

Target outcome

Any hypothesis answered within hours, with findings and next steps.

The AI triage step in the under-3-minute pipeline

“Which alerts need escalation, to AI or human, and why?”

Investigates every alert around the clock, the AI triage step in the under-3-minute pipeline, and escalates only those that need an analyst.

Target outcome

100% of alerts triaged, 95% resolved with an auditable action and reason, at 3× human-led coverage.

“What happened, how far did it spread, and what do we do next?”

Investigates and responds alongside your analysts in plain language, including leads from third-party tools, built on Mitiga’s incident response heritage.

Target outcome

Escalated cases resolved in ~10 minutes on average, up to a board-ready report.

The only agent that touches production

“Can we stop this now without breaking production, and clean it up after?”

Contains threats with the smallest possible blast radius, reversibly, with no privileged access of its own, through your SOAR and ticketing.

Target outcome

Reversible, non-destructive containment safe to automate; eradication and recovery run on your analysts’ approval.

Your environmentYour SOAR & ticketing

Production boundaryReversible actions run on the loop. Irreversible ones wait for your approval.

“Are my detections still catching what matters?”

Builds, tunes, and retires detections continuously, personalized to your environment without generic alerts en masse.

Target outcome

Detection gaps closed in hours. Noisy detections tuned in minutes; suppression backlog eliminated.

One memory. One normalized data layer.Every handoff carries full context.
