In this episode of Mitiga Mic, Brian talks with Ofer Maor, CTO and co-founder of Mitiga, about how artificial intelligence is changing detection and response in cybersecurity. Ofer breaks AIDR into three main pillars: using AI to improve detection and response, defending against AI-driven attacks, and securing the AI systems that organizations now rely on.
He explains how generative AI is already transforming security operations by automating triage, analysis, and remediation, allowing analysts to focus on complex, higher-value threats. The two discuss how attackers are also beginning to use AI to scale and speed up their campaigns, which will push defenders toward faster, more automated responses.
Ofer also shares how Mitiga’s approach stands out through its deep context, cloud-native architecture, and unified data lake that connects signals across identity, cloud, and AI environments. He closes by offering advice for evaluating AI-based security products, reminding listeners to look for solutions built on real data and long-term scalability rather than quick demos or surface-level integrations.
