08 Apr Yesterday’s Cybersecurity Won’t Work For Next Generation Cloud Attacks
This week in cybersecurity from the editors at Cybercrime Magazine
Sausalito, Calif. – Apr. 8, 2026
Why did Cybercrime Magazine meet up with Charlie Thomas, CEO at Mitiga, at RSAC Conference 2026? Because attackers will get in. Cloud, SaaS, AI, and identity sprawl make it easy. The real measure is eliminating the impact.
Founded by cloud incident responders, Mitiga saw prevention alone wasn’t enough. Legacy, prevention-based tools missed what mattered: investigating and stopping active cloud-based cyberattacks.
Mitiga closes that gap with automation, AI-driven detection, and a forensic data lake holding over 1,000 days of activity. What started as response has grown into what the New York City-based company calls the most complete solution for eliminating the impact of cloud attacks.
“If I could leave security leaders with one takeaway about the future of cybersecurity, it’s to accept and recognize that yesterday’s cybersecurity program won’t work for today’s modern attacks,” says Thomas.
Chief information security officers globally are listening to what Thomas and his team has to say. In 2025, Mitiga, with additional offices in London and Tel Aviv, Launched a 25-member CISO advisory board.
