Cyberhaven protects businesses from insider threats to data using AI-enabled security that tracks how data flows inside an organization. It relies on data lineage to map where data originates, where it is stored, and how it moves, so it can prevent data exfiltration anywhere in the company. The product also speeds up internal investigations by providing a complete record of events before and during an incident, helping teams understand what happened and user intent. A key feature is real-time detection of risky behavior where the system can stop a user handling important data in the moment and offer coaching to reduce future risk. The platform combines data loss prevention, insider risk management, and cloud data security in a single experience, typically offered via a subscription model. The goal is to protect sensitive data, prevent unauthorized transfers, enable faster incident understanding, and improve ongoing data security across an organization.
