“While organizations have significantly transformed in recent years, SecOps and Incident Response (IR) tooling has remained largely unchanged. As cyber threats now primarily target cloud environments, it’s essential for SOC teams to update their cloud security stacks to address the need,” stated Gabrieli. “This realization drew me to Mitiga, whose tailored approach addresses the unique challenges SOC and IR teams face in the cloud era. Mitiga stands out because it equips teams with the tools to manage the escalating cloud threat landscape efficiently, avoiding the pitfalls of traditional methods that are not designed for the scale and nature of cloud environments. I’m excited to help drive the evolution of cloud security, providing clear, effective solutions for detecting, investigating, and responding to these growing threats.”
Previously Gabrieli was a Director for Product Management at Aqua Security, where he spearheaded the strategy and development of Aqua’s leading runtime protection solutions for cloud workloads, a core component of Aqua’s cloud-native application protection platform (CNAPP) offering. Prior, he served as a Security Black Belt at Microsoft, following the Secure Island acquisition, where he consulted global 2000 companies on strategic cyber-security initiatives.
