About Cyera
Cyera sells a data, identity and AI security platform. It helps organisations find sensitive data across cloud, SaaS, on-prem and hybrid estates, then control who and what can reach it. The company says its AI-native classification learns each business and reaches 95% or more precision, with deployment in minutes and scanning of 74PB in seven days. It reports 80% less risk within three months for some customers. The platform covers data security posture management, data loss prevention, non-human identity governance and agent security. It links classification with identity, usage and movement to prioritise real risk, then automates remediation through tools such as Tines and Torq. It also offers managed services and training certifications. Customers named in the text include Paramount, Valvoline, Vetcor, Cass Information Systems, ACV, ChenMed and Silicon Labs.
