Miggo vs Permiso

Miggo is an Application Detection and Response (ADR) platform that shows which vulnerabilities are exploitable in running banking applications and shields them at runtime while the patch waits. Permiso's Universal Identity Graph connects every identity to the credentials it owns, the machines it creates, the agents it runs and every action it takes in real time. CISO Tribune files both under Cloud detection and response. This page sets the two records side by side: what each sells, where it is based, who owns and funds it, the customers it names and its recent news, each fact numbered to its source.

What it sells: Miggo

What Miggo Shield does[2][5]
Miggo Shield generates vulnerability-specific WAF rules tailored to applications. Miggo generates a WAF rule scoped to the specific exploitable path, deploys it to AWS WAF or Cloudflare, and expires it automatically.
What Miggo WAF Copilot does[7]
Miggo WAF Copilot activates as soon as a new vulnerability is detected, or on demand, and analyzes public resources including code, exploits, and threat intel feeds. It generates payload variations, tests their exploitation, and builds a customized protection strategy that it validates with a simulation of potential attacks. It can be implemented across WAF platforms including Cloudflare, AWS, Azure, GCP, Akamai, F5, Fortinet, and Imperva.

What it sells: Permiso

What Permiso Discover does[3]
Permiso Discover gives enterprises an inventory of human, non-human and AI identities wherever they live. Permiso inventories identities and assesses exposure risk in identity providers, cloud service providers and SaaS applications.
What Permiso Protect does[3]
Permiso Protect continuously evaluates the risk posture of identities based on usage patterns, exposure and entitlements. Permiso Protect surfaces and quantifies high-risk identities, stale access and toxic combinations across human, vendor, AI and non-human accounts.
What Universal Identity Graph does[3][11]
The Universal Identity Graph connects every identity to the credentials it owns, the machines it creates, the agents it runs and every action it takes in real time. Permiso states that the chain stays unbroken from a human SSO login to a Lambda function to an MCP tool call. Permiso's Universal Identity Graph inventories identities in all cloud environments and assesses exposure risk.
What Identity Threat Detection and Response does[7]
Permiso provides identity threat detection and response for human and non-human identities across environments. The detection engine has 1500+ detection rules engineered by the P0 Labs team. Permiso detects access and behavioral anomalies in environments such as AWS, Azure, GCP, GitHub, Slack and Salesforce.
What Identity Runtime Attribution does[3]
Permiso launched AI agent runtime security, bringing Identity Runtime Attribution to every agent in production. Permiso ties every run, event and tool call to the identity behind it in real time. Every agent action is tied to a specific human, non-human or AI identity in real time and is preserved as a complete audit trail.
What SandyClaw does[11]
SandyClaw runs every skill in a controlled sandbox before it touches the environment. SandyClaw records every action, every tool call and every downstream request.

About Miggo

Miggo is an Application Detection and Response (ADR) platform that shows which vulnerabilities are exploitable in running banking applications and shields them at runtime while the patch waits. Miggo's ADR platform tracks application behavior, detects high-risk paths and policy deviations, and enforces runtime protection that blocks threats before exploitation, powered by DeepTracing™. Miggo describes ADR platforms as recording, baselining, and monitoring both 1st and 3rd-party application behaviors, using security observability to detect anomalies and threat exposure at runtime.[1][2][3][4]

Miggo says attackers exploit massive runtime blindspots to slip past other tools. Miggo states that it is determined to protect every application, everywhere, in an era where AI-driven attackers exploit vulnerabilities faster than security teams can patch them. Miggo states that PCI DSS and DORA both demand controls that hold at runtime, not just at audit.[1][3][5]

Miggo provides runtime insights with rich context around applications, including internet reachability, drift detection, and sensitive data flows. Miggo maps every live service, connection, and data flow across a financial services environment, including partner and payment integrations and AI agents, without code changes. Miggo security observability lets teams drill down into a live Application Graph to understand data connections, flaws, changes, and behavioral anomalies at runtime. Miggo security observability includes continuous discovery and mapping of new 1st and 3rd party services, data sources, cloud resources, API endpoints, and domains. Miggo lets teams visualize, map, and investigate how applications and data flows are connected.[2][3][4][5][6]

Miggo prioritizes threats with runtime context like internet exposure and exploitability. Miggo uses runtime validation and attack-path exploitability to show which services and dependencies are truly at risk from AI attackers. Miggo applies vulnerability prioritization driven by runtime reachability, not by CVSS score. Miggo reverse-engineers the attack primitive, proves what is exploitable at runtime, and deploys precision mitigation. Miggo provides continuous application behaviors monitoring and automated alerts of anomalous activity.[2][3][5]

Miggo Shield generates vulnerability-specific WAF rules tailored to applications. Miggo generates a WAF rule scoped to the specific exploitable path, deploys it to AWS WAF or Cloudflare, and expires it automatically. Miggo WAF Copilot activates as soon as a new vulnerability is detected, or on demand, and analyzes multiple public resources, including code, exploits, and threat intel feeds. Miggo WAF Copilot generates multiple payload variations and tests their exploitation to generate a root cause analysis. Miggo WAF Copilot builds a customized protection strategy and validates its efficacy using a simulation of the potential attacks. Miggo WAF Copilot automates root cause analysis, payload testing, and rule creation. Miggo WAF Copilot can be implemented across WAF platforms including Cloudflare, AWS, Azure, GCP, Akamai, F5, Fortinet, and Imperva.[2][3][5]

Miggo offers agentless deployment with no code required. Miggo describes a non-disruptive single lightweight sensor that allows teams to introduce runtime function level reachability analysis to threat investigation and response flows. Miggo monitoring goes beyond the application perimeter and performs deep internal inspection. Miggo describes introducing compensating control to block exploits while the vulnerabilities are fixed. Miggo says it detects and blocks PHP2Shell exploits at runtime.[1][3][4][5]
