Quick answer
The complete Cyera platform — every linked card is a full intel page, from the DSPM classification flagship to AI & AI-agent security.
See & classify data everywhere.
The flagship — AI-native Data Security Posture Management. Cyera autonomously DISCOVERS and CLASSIFIES your sensitive data across cloud, SaaS, IaaS and on-prem (agentless; it claims >95% autonomous classification accuracy), then shows you the risk — exposure, misplacement, over-permissioned access. You can’t protect what you can’t see; the classification engine is the moat, and every other Cyera capability (DLP, AI security, access governance) runs off it. Gartner names Cyera a Representative Vendor in its DSPM Market Guide (2025).
Stop data loss, less noise.
AI-native Data Loss Prevention — built from the Trail Security acquisition (Oct 2024, $162M). Omni DLP protects data in motion, at rest and in use, and because it runs on Cyera’s deep DSPM classification, it slashes the false-positive alert noise that buries legacy DLP teams. The DSPM CONTEXT is the differentiator: it knows what the data actually IS before it decides what to allow. Newer (acquisition-built) — but the classification-first approach is exactly what legacy DLP lacked.
Secure the AI, and the agents.
Cyera’s most differentiated bet — two parts. AI Guardian (AI-SPM): discover SHADOW AI across the org and protect the AI RUNTIME (inspecting prompts and responses for sensitive-data leakage and misuse). Agent Guardian: secure AI AGENTS themselves — every tool call and database query an agent makes — feeding off the Oasis Security acquisition (~$1B, Jul 2026) for non-human identity. Built on Cyera’s data-classification engine, so it knows what data the AI is touching. Emerging category (2025–2026), each area has specialists — validate for your environment.
Right-size access — human & non-human.
Who — HUMAN and NON-HUMAN — can access what sensitive data, and whether they should. Cyera maps identities to data, analyses effective access, and helps right-size over-permissioned entitlements — powered by Otterize (eBPF runtime) and Oasis (agentic access management for AI agents / non-human identity). The edge is that it’s DATA-CONTEXT-AWARE (it knows the sensitivity of what’s being accessed) and built for the AI era of non-human identity. Varonis has deep DAG heritage (TechBag sells it) — Cyera’s twist is data-context + NHI.
Everything Cyera does runs on ONE thing: a best-of-breed, AI-native data DISCOVERY and CLASSIFICATION engine (agentless, claiming >95% autonomous accuracy across cloud, SaaS, IaaS and on-prem). DSPM is that engine surfaced as posture; Omni DLP uses it to decide what to protect; AI Security uses it to know what data the AI is touching; Data Access Governance uses it to weigh the sensitivity of what an identity can reach. Deep, accurate classification is the moat — and the reason a data-first platform can credibly span DLP, AI and access. Validate the classification accuracy for your own data estate.
Cyera scaled its platform astonishingly fast — by ACQUISITION as much as by build. Trail Security (Oct 2024, $162M) became Omni DLP; Otterize and Shape AI (2025) added runtime and non-human-identity; Oasis Security (~$1B, Jul 2026) added non-human-identity and agentic access for AI agents. That’s how a 2021 company offers DSPM + DLP + AI security + access governance so quickly. The honest flip side: acquisition-built breadth raises a fair INTEGRATION-MATURITY question — how seamlessly do the pieces work as one platform yet? Validate the modules you care about; the DSPM core is the most proven.
Most organisations don’t know where their sensitive data actually lives — you can’t protect what you can’t see. Cyera bet onAI-native discovery & classification — the data-first foundation everything else runs on— an AI-native, agentless engine that autonomously discovers and classifies your sensitive data everywhere (it claims >95% accuracy), the data-first foundation that DLP, AI security and access governance all run on doubled down on it.
An AI-native, agentless engine that autonomously discovers and classifies sensitive data across cloud, SaaS, IaaS and on-prem (Cyera claims >95% autonomous accuracy). You can’t protect what you can’t see — this deep, accurate understanding of your data is Cyera’s genuine moat.
Surface the risk that classification reveals — exposed, misplaced, duplicated or over-permissioned sensitive data — as a prioritised posture you can act on. Cyera is a Gartner Representative Vendor in the DSPM Market Guide (2025). Note: there is no DSPM Magic Quadrant, only a Market Guide.
Turn understanding into control: Omni DLP (from the Trail acquisition) protects data in motion, at rest and in use, and — because it’s DSPM-context-aware — does it with far less of the false-positive noise that buries legacy DLP. Classification-first prevention.
AI Guardian discovers shadow AI and protects the AI runtime (prompts/responses); Agent Guardian secures AI AGENTS themselves (every tool call, every query) using non-human identity from the Oasis acquisition. Data-security for the AI era — the hottest differentiator (and newest).
A fast-rising leader ($12B valuation, Series G Jun 2026; >$150M ARR; ~1 in 5 of the Fortune 500) — young (2021), data-first (not a full CNAPP; pairs with Wiz), premium/quote-only. No confirmed India office (partner-led); DPDPA data-residency is the sharpest hook. TechBag scopes it, compares honestly vs Wiz/Varonis/Securiti, and adds INR/GST.
Start with DSPM (see & classify your data) — then add Omni DLP, AI Security (AI Guardian + Agent Guardian) and Data Access Governance. One classification engine.

Your data estate (cloud/SaaS/IaaS/on-prem), your priorities (visibility, DLP, AI, access), and what you already run. TechBag scopes it — and is candid that Cyera is data-first (pairs with Wiz’s CNAPP, doesn’t replace it) and compares honestly vs Varonis and Securiti.
Connect Cyera’s agentless engine and let it autonomously discover and classify your sensitive data — giving you the prioritised map of exposure, misplacement and over-permissioned access. You can’t protect what you can’t see.
Add Omni DLP (protect data with DSPM context, less noise), AI Security (shadow-AI + runtime + AI agents), and Data Access Governance (right-size human and non-human access) — all off the same classification. Validate the acquisition-built modules.
As AI adoption grows, turn on AI Guardian (discover shadow AI, protect prompts/responses) and Agent Guardian (secure what AI agents do, via Oasis non-human identity). Data security built for AI — the hottest, and newest, edge.
Want a full cloud-security CNAPP? Wiz (TechBag sells it — pair, don’t replace). Deep on-prem/unstructured + DAG heritage? Varonis (TechBag sells it). A broad data command centre? Securiti (Veeam-owned; TechBag sells it). TechBag advises honestly.
Cyera is premium, quote-only — TechBag adds scoping, honest comparison, DPDPA data-residency help (the India hook) and the local commercial layer (INR/GST invoicing and local support).

Per-user/device plus appliances and MDR service — TechBag models the mix (managed vs self-managed) for your size.
Cyera is best-of-breed at DATA security — discovery, classification, DSPM — but it is NOT a full Cloud-Native Application Protection Platform (CNAPP) like Wiz (which TechBag also sells). Cyera PAIRS WITH a CNAPP (data-layer depth alongside cloud-workload/config coverage); it doesn’t replace it. If you need full cloud posture, workload and config security, that’s Wiz’s lane. TechBag scopes the pairing honestly.
There is NO Gartner Magic Quadrant for DSPM — only a Market GUIDE, in which Cyera is named a Representative Vendor (2025). That’s a genuine, credible recognition — but ‘Gartner MQ Leader for DSPM’ would be simply wrong (no such MQ exists). Be precise: Representative Vendor in the DSPM Market Guide. TechBag states it accurately.
Cyera is fast-rising and impressive — but it was founded in 2021 and much of its breadth (Omni DLP, non-human-identity, agentic access) is ACQUISITION-built (Trail, Otterize, Shape AI, Oasis). That’s a fair integration-maturity question: how seamlessly do the modules work as one platform yet? The DSPM core is the most proven; validate the newer modules for your case. TechBag helps you test what matters.
Cyera’s AI Security (AI Guardian, Agent Guardian) is its hottest differentiator — but AI-SPM, AI-runtime and AI-agent security are EMERGING categories (2025–2026), and each area has focused specialists. Cyera’s edge is building them on its data-classification engine plus Oasis non-human-identity — but validate the capabilities against your AI use-cases and deploy with oversight. TechBag helps you pilot them.
Cyera has no confirmed India office — it’s partner-led — so local presence is via the channel. But the sharpest reason for Indian enterprises to adopt it is DPDPA DATA-RESIDENCY: Cyera’s classification tells you exactly WHERE your sensitive data lives, which is foundational to residency compliance. Don’t overlook that hook — or the need to confirm deployment/residency specifics. TechBag surfaces both and handles GST.

The biggest shift in data security is to AI-native DSPM — autonomously discovering and classifying sensitive data across cloud/SaaS/on-prem, because you can’t protect what you can’t see.
What it means for you
Cyera is a data-first DSPM leader (Gartner Representative Vendor, 2025) — its agentless classification engine (claims >95% autonomous) is the moat everything runs on.
As enterprises adopt AI and AI agents everywhere, they must discover shadow AI, protect the AI runtime, and secure what agents do — a brand-new security frontier.
What it means for you
Cyera’s AI Guardian (AI-SPM + runtime) and Agent Guardian (securing AI agents, via Oasis non-human identity) put data-classification context at the centre of AI security.
Service accounts, tokens, keys and AI agents now vastly outnumber humans — and are a fast-growing, under-governed path to sensitive data.
What it means for you
Cyera’s Oasis acquisition (~$1B, Jul 2026) targets non-human identity and agentic access — governing who (human AND non-human) can reach what data.
Legacy DLP drowned teams in false positives because it lacked data context — the new wave rebuilds DLP on accurate classification.
What it means for you
Cyera’s Omni DLP (from Trail) runs on its DSPM classification — protecting data in motion/rest/use with far less of the noise that buried legacy DLP.
Buyers want continuous POSTURE — exposure, misplacement, over-permissioned access — not a one-off scan; risk you can prioritise and act on.
What it means for you
Cyera’s DSPM surfaces prioritised data risk continuously, and feeds DLP, AI security and access governance off the same live understanding of the data.
India’s DPDPA and global residency rules make knowing exactly WHERE sensitive data lives foundational — a data-classification problem first.
What it means for you
Cyera’s classification pinpoints where sensitive data resides — the sharpest hook for Indian enterprises — with TechBag adding the local (INR/GST, residency) layer.
