Miggo is the first Application Detection and Response (ADR) platform on a mission to stop application breaches. 80% of all cyber incidents happen in the application layer, however too many are being slipped by existing tools due to a blindspot to the actual application behavior. By using in-application runtime context, Miggo maps how applications actually operate in runtime, identifies high-risk application flows, pinpoints the weak spots, and provides real-time detection and response capabilities in the application layer.
