Cyera Hits $9 Billion Valuation with $400 Million Funding to Secure Agentic AI

Cyera, the industry leader in AI and data security, has secured $400 million in Series F funding led by Blackstone. This latest investment triples the company valuation to $9 billion just one year after its previous round. The capital infusion arrives as global enterprises accelerate their adoption of autonomous AI systems that require rigorous governance and protection.

The funding round brings Cyera total capital raised to over $1.7 billion. All major existing investors participated, including Sequoia Capital, Accel, and Coatue. This rapid capital accumulation reflects a historic urgency in the cybersecurity market to address data centric risks. The involvement of Blackstone suggests the company is scaling toward a major market consolidation or a future public offering.

The primary catalyst for this growth is the emergence of agentic AI. Unlike standard chatbots, these autonomous agents interact directly with sensitive corporate data lakes. Organizations now face the challenge of giving AI access to information without bypassing traditional security controls. Cyera addresses this by acting as a unified control layer for data wherever it resides.

The company recently introduced AI Guardian to expand its offerings into a comprehensive security platform. This technology converges Data Security Posture Management, Data Loss Prevention, and identity security into a single source of truth. By providing continuous risk detection, it ensures that proprietary information remains protected while allowing businesses to unlock AI potential.

Cyera has demonstrated exceptional market penetration by securing 20 percent of the Fortune 500. The company reported revenue growth of 3.4 times and expanded its global presence to 15 countries. Strategic partnerships with Microsoft Purview and AWS have further solidified its status as a mission critical security layer. "AI is reshaping the foundations of how every organization operates," said Yotam Segev, CEO of Cyera. He emphasized that enterprises recognize that AI without data security is a risk they cannot afford. This funding strengthens the ability of the company to protect the world's most sensitive information during this technological shift.
