Cyera

Data-and-identity trust platform for access governance

Overview

Cyera builds a data-and-identity trust layer for enterprises to govern who and what can access data. Its platform automatically discovers and classifies sensitive information across cloud and SaaS environments and now includes AI-agent security and non-human identity after acquiring Oasis Security. Key products include Agent Guardian and Cyera Endpoint, which connect data location to the user or agent allowed to reach it. Cyera differentiates itself by uniting data discovery and access governance with both human and non-human identities, extending security to AI agents, and offering a centralized layer across cloud, SaaS, and endpoints. The company’s goal is to help organizations see, classify, and govern access to data—across humans, machines, and AI agents—while expanding globally and deepening AI security.

Cyera, valued at over $12B, launches Cy Agents and Endpoint to secure AI agents

Cyera has launched two products to extend its Cyera Omni AI security platform: Cy Agents and Cyera Endpoint. It announced them on November 10, 2026, at datasecAI 2026. Cy Agents is a team of specialised agents that find, prioritise and investigate risk using each organisation's business context. Human security teams keep control, with audit trails making agent activity reviewable. Cyera Endpoint extends data loss prevention (DLP) to laptops and workstations through an on-device sensor. It targets insider risk, misaligned agent actions and data exfiltration through unapproved channels. Cyera is valued at over $12 billion. Its backers include Accel, Blackstone, Cyberstarts, Georgian, Goldman Sachs, Lightspeed, and Sequoia.

Reco and Cyera integrate to rank AI agent risk by sensitive data access

Reco, an agent security company, has integrated with AI security platform Cyera to show enterprises which AI agents can reach sensitive data. The integration is available now. Cyera finds where sensitive data lives, including business IP, financial, health, and regulated records. Reco ingests those classification labels into its Reco Graph and maps the agents, identities, permissions, and app connections around the data. Security teams can then see how an agent got access, what else it can connect to, and whether its activity departs from normal behaviour. That lets them fix the riskiest access first, rather than treating every over-permissioned agent alike. "Customers can identify the access paths that matter most and remediate them with much greater precision," said Zoe Hillenmeyer, chief operating officer at Reco.

eSHARE integrates with Cyera to apply data-aware controls to shared files.

eSHARE integrates with Cyera to apply data-aware controls to shared files. eSHARE uses Cyera's data classification to set sharing permissions, even on files with no sensitivity label. When Cyera reclassifies a file, access follows. October 1, 2026 Every regulated enterprise runs on files that have to leave the building. A supplier needs the bill of materials. A regulator needs the submission. A design partner needs the drawings. None of that work happens if the data stays inside. Cyera DSPM helps organizations understand which files contain sensitive data and why they matter. eSHARE integrates with Cyera to bring that classification context into file sharing, so access decisions can reflect what a file contains, even when it has no sensitivity label. Automated governance with Cyera intelligence. eSHARE integrates with Cyera to apply data-aware controls to file sharing. Cyera provides the data intelligence and classification context. eSHARE uses that context to inform access decisions when files are shared and when they are accessed. What that makes possible: * Coverage across everything the business shares. Data-aware controls extend to any file type so the data estate is governed on context rather than on only what happens to be labeled. * The data that matters most gets the controls it deserves. Cyera topics trained on an organization's own models identify what no pattern or label can catch, and the sharing policy responds to them specifically. * Collaboration keeps moving while the sensitive work stays protected. Permissions follow both the file and the person, so one recipient can edit and download while another views only, without a second share being created. Permissions adapt as sensitivity changes. The classification is not read once and stored with the share. Permissions are evaluated on every access request, so a reclassification in Cyera reaches the access granted. A share created in March is still being evaluated in June, and nobody has to revisit it. Guardrails that scale with the velocity. The volume of data leaving organizations keeps rising. Automated workflows assemble and distribute files. AI agents retrieve and act on data on someone's behalf. That pace is going to keep increasing. Guardrails have to strengthen at the same rate. When the control is informed by what a file contains, it scales with the volume instead of against it, and the business can accelerate with confidence. See it in your environment. Watch the integration apply a Cyera classification to a live share or learn more from Cyera's knowledge base article. If you use Cyera and Microsoft 365 today, the fastest way to see what this changes is to run it against your own data. Contact your eSHARE representative to set up a walkthrough.

Cyera raises $400M from Goldman Sachs to secure AI agents in enterprise

Cyera has secured a $400 million Series G extension from Goldman Sachs to build a unified data and identity platform for AI agent security. The investment will accelerate development of Cyera's AI Security products and fuel expansion in federal and international markets. The company addresses growing enterprise concerns about autonomous AI agents accessing sensitive data. Cyera's platform combines data security with non-human identity management, tracking AI agents' activities from cloud to endpoint devices. "Global 2000 enterprises need to trust what AI agents can see and do before they can scale them," said Yotam Segev, Cyera's cofounder and CEO. The platform governs access for humans, machines, and AI agents across enterprises. Cyera is valued at over $12 billion and counts Paramount, Chipotle, and Valvoline amongst its customers.
