Cyera announced two significant advancements in its collaboration with Amazon Web Services (AWS), including achieving the AWS Generative AI Competency in the security category and making its data security platform accessible within the newly launched AI Agents and Tools in AWS Marketplace via its DataPort MCP-powered interface.
“By offering Cyera’s MCP-Powered data security solutions in AWS Marketplace and achieving the Generative AI Competency, we are providing customers with trusted, streamlined ways to adopt and operationalize AI securely,” said Amit Raikar, Vice President of Strategic Alliances at Cyera. “As Agentic AI unlocks new frontiers for innovation, these milestones reflect our commitment to helping organizations embrace this technology while maintaining visibility, control, and protection over their most valuable asset – data.”
Cyera’s platform aims to secure AI comprehensively by providing visibility into data accessed by systems, whether at rest or in motion. The platform is designed to discover, scan, and classify data across the enterprise, offering AI-native classification for precise identification of sensitive information. Its architecture supports scaling to petabytes of data across evolving environments.
Jason Tice, SVP of Global Security Architecture and Engineering at Experian, commented, “As we advance our use of GenAI, safeguarding sensitive data remains a top priority. With Cyera, we have gained the visibility and control to reduce risk, strengthen compliance, and improve how our teams collaborate around data, allowing us to confidently build responsible, business-ready AI solutions that deliver greater value for our customers worldwide.”
The AWS Competency Program and the new AI Agents and Tools in AWS Marketplace are designed to assist customers in identifying trusted partners and accelerating the adoption of generative AI. These programs aim to streamline procurement, reduce complexity, and offer centralized visibility and control over licensing, access, and payments through existing AWS accounts.
Cyera DataPort is a fully managed data warehouse that enables customers to explore, query, and operationalize their business-ready Cyera data at scale. DataPort MCP, a feature within DataPort, allows Cyera customers to connect to their chosen large language models (LLMs) and query data using natural language.
Cyera, an AI-native data security platform, provides organizations with a comprehensive view of data location, usage, and safety to mitigate risk and maximize data value. The company has secured over $1.3 billion in funding from investors including Accel, Coatue, Cyberstarts, Georgian, Lightspeed, and Sequoia. Its unified data security platform assists businesses in discovering, securing, and leveraging data by addressing blind spots, reducing alert noise, and protecting sensitive information across cloud, SaaS, databases, AI ecosystems, and on-premise environments. Recent platform enhancements, such as Cyera’s AI Guardian solution and Omni DLP, extend this capability with adaptive, AI-native data loss protection, incorporating real-time intelligence and contextual understanding of data movement and usage within enterprises.
