Our take
With the allure of agility and globalization, companies are shifting to the cloud in record numbers. But in an environment of worsening cyber-threat, data protection must shift with them. Cyera responds to the lack of cloud-based, data-conscious security support for companies.
Previously, discovering and securing data in the cloud was written off for being tedious and challenging. Using advances in data science, Cyera has built a data reality platform which provides a complete picture across all cloud-based data repositories. It enables instant, automatic data reality, and is set to define how companies do cloud data security.
The quick and clear picture provided by Cyera’s platform has gained it rapid traction among Fortune 500 companies. It has also raised considerable funding that has supported continued improvements to the functionality of the platform. More recently, Cyera has been on an acquisition spree, rapidly expanding both its workforce and operations. These acquired companies include Trail Security, Otterize and Shape AI.
