Accomplishments
• Katie Mulligan leads product management at Radiant Security, an AI-driven cybersecurity startup specializing in automating attack triage, investigation, and response using generative AI. The cybersecurity sector is facing a significant shortage of skilled workers, currently standing at 3.4 million and growing annually by 26%. To address this gap, Katie has spearheaded the creation of a cutting-edge product leveraging Gen AI technology to mimic and automate the intricate processes involved in analyzing and investigating security alerts. Radiant's product plays a vital role in alleviating this shortage by streamlining manual tasks and significantly enhancing workforce productivity, benefiting the 70% of companies affected by the talent deficit in cybersecurity.
• Katie's pioneering work in incorporating Gen AI into cybersecurity deserves recognition. Unlike other fields where existing models and precedents guide development, the application of generative AI in security operations presents unique challenges with few, if any, established solutions. Katie's product not only addresses a widespread issue within the cybersecurity industry but also intersects with several lucrative markets, including Managed Detection & Response, SIEM, security automation, and Extended Detection and Response (XDR), which collectively amount to billions of dollars in value.
• Katie's impact on Radiant Security's growth and success is immeasurable. She is the driving force behind the company's innovative products. Radiant has experienced a remarkable growth rate of over 300% year over year, earning it a spot on this year's Fortune Cyber 60 list, which recognizes the fastest-growing cybersecurity startups of 2023.
• Katie is a passionate advocate for diversity and equity in the workforce. Under her leadership, the percentage of female hires in engineering and product roles at Radiant has seen double-digit increases. For instance, 60% of the Radiant Security product team is comprised of women.
