Cyera at a glance:
Cyera is the data security company that gives businesses context and control over their most valuable asset: data.
As a pioneer in Data Security Posture Management (DSPM), Cyera instantly provides companies visibility over all of their sensitive data, context over the risk it represents & their security exposure, and automated remediation to reduce the attack surface and ensure operational resilience. We are redefining the way companies secure their data.
How Cyera is different:
Cyera takes a data-centric approach to security, assessing the exposure to your sensitive data, everywhere. Our DataGraph automatically and continuously learns from your environment, assessing your threat surface, data access, and security controls across multiple dimensions of risk.
Because Cyera applies deep data context holistically across your data landscape, we are the only solution that can empower security teams to know where their data is, what exposes it to risk, and take immediate action to remediate exposures and assure compliance without disrupting the business.
Why your business needs Cyera:
Mass migration to multi-cloud and work from anywhere has broken traditional security. It has never been easier for siloed projects, rapid dev cycles, or human error to result in a data breach or ransomware attack. Cyera dynamically develops deep context about the sensitive data across your hybrid cloud landscape, assessing your threat surface, data access, and security controls and quickly remediating exposures to your most valuable & vulnerable data.
