Overview
Since its founding in 2021, Cyera has been on a mission to empower enterprises to secure their most critical resource: data. With an agentless data discovery approach and an industry-leading AI-powered classification engine that delivers 95% precision, Cyera is rapidly becoming the backbone of data intelligence for every other data and data security technology. The platform scans data across IaaS, SaaS, DBaaS, and on-premises environments, classifying it and providing context like data type, role, location, and sensitivity using its proprietary AI engine. This engine is the brainchild of fifty full-time AI researchers just focused on using AI to make Cyera the most intelligent data security platform in the world.
Like a brain sending signals to the rest of the body, Cyera’s data insights are shared with identity services like Okta, workflow services like ServiceNow, Jira, and Tines, data backup services like Cohesity, data catalog services like Collibra, and even AI marketplaces like AWS Bedrock. Communicating through APIs allows all of these other services to adapt based on the sensitivity, criticality, and usefulness of the data that Cyera discovers and classifies. Customers love this, hence why today, Cyera has the top DSPM Gartner Peer ratings in the market.
In 2024, Cyera evolved from a Data Security Posture Management (DSPM) leader—recognized by Frost & Sullivan as the fastest-growing DSPM solution—to a comprehensive data security company. Over the past year, the company raised $600 million in Series C and Series D funding, led by Accel and Sapphire Ventures, bringing its total funding to $760 million and its valuation to $3 billion. It was also ranked 32 by Deloitte on their the Fast 500 list.
