Cyera Recognized as Gartner Customers’ Choice for DSPM

There’s no greater honor than earning the trust of the people we build for.

That’s why we are incredibly proud to share that Cyera has been named a Customers’ Choice in the Gartner Peer Insights “Voice of the Customer”: Data Security Posture Management (DSPM) report.

A quick recap for those of you who are not as familiar with this report. There are four categories of vendors:

• “Customer’s Choice” - These vendors have scores that meet or exceed the market average for both User Interest and Adoption, and Overall Experience
• “Established” - These vendors meet or exceed the market average for User Interest and adoption, but are below the market average for Overall Experience
• “Strong performer” - These vendors meet or exceed the market average for Overall Experience, but are below the market average for User Interest and Adoption
• “Aspiring” - These vendors score below the market average for both User Interest and Adoption, and Overall Experience

This recognition of Customers’ Choice isn’t just another badge. It’s a reflection of the experiences, challenges, and success stories shared by the professionals we work with every day. The data security, risk, and IT teams who are under pressure to protect more, move faster, and stay ahead of the unknown, unknowns.

The Secure Adoption of AI requires DSPM

‍

We’re not talking about some abstract, distant challenge. This is happening now. Data is doubling every nine hours. Organizations are amassing massive volumes of it -  and faster than their ability to manage, protect, or even fully understand it. At the same time, AI is reshaping everything - not just how we innovate, but how we attack, defend, and respond.

The rapid adoption of AI is introducing new risks. More than 80% of enterprise data is already flowing into risky AI systems, often without governance or oversight. This is why Data Security Posture Management (DSPM) isn’t a luxury. It’s a necessity.

As AI becomes deeply embedded in business workflows, the need to know what data exists, where it lives, and what risks require immediate remediation becomes absolutely critical. Visibility is no longer optional. Proactive data posture management is the new baseline.

It’s no surprise, then, that according to the 2024 DSPM Adoption Report by Cybersecurity Insiders, 75% of organizations expect to adopt DSPM by the end of THIS year. That’s not a trend, that’s a shift >>>.

What to look for when evaluating DSPM

Our customers have been clear about what they need in a DSPM platform, and we’ve listened closely. The top priorities we hear over and over again:

• Agentless deployment that works seamlessly across IaaS, SaaS, DBaaS, and on-prem environments. Prioritize architecture that offers a SaaS deployment option and Self-hosted option as well
  
• AI-native classification to automatically discover and understand sensitive data across your ecosystem with high precision, and speed. This also required learned data categories as well to capture data specific to each specific customer
• Continuous posture management and automated remediation for policy enforcement and to reduce data exposure without slowing down innovation - especially given the scale of Global 2000 companies. Manual is not an option.
  
• And most importantly, a world-class customer experience - because great technology only matters when it drives meaningful outcomes.
  
  

The above priorities - we view those as non-negotiables. This is why they serve as the foundation for our AI Native Data Security Platform. 

Wrapping things up here…

To our customers: we say thank you. For your partnership, your candid feedback, and the trust you’ve placed in us. Your success drives us, and this recognition belongs just as much to you as it does to our team.

If your team is on the journey to modernize its data security, I invite you to experience Cyera through a custom demo. You’ll see for yourself why your peers are choosing Cyera as their trusted DSPM partner.
