Cyera’s AI-powered data security platform gives companies visibility over their sensitive data, context over the risk it represents, and actionable, prioritized remediation guidance.  As a cloud-native, agentless platform, Cyera provides holistic data security coverage across SaaS, PaaS, IaaS and On-premise environments. 

AI adoption has accelerated rapidly, but security and governance haven’t kept pace. New research from the 2025 State of AI Data Security Report reveals that while 83% of enterprises already use AI, only 13% have strong visibility into how these systems handle sensitive data. The result? A readiness gap defined by overreaching agents, risky prompts, weak controls, and unprepared governance.

In this webinar, presented by data security experts from Cyera and Cybersecurity Insiders, we’ll break down the key survey findings - including why 76% of security leaders say autonomous AI agents are hardest to secure, why two-thirds have already caught AI over-accessing sensitive data, and why only 11% feel ready for looming regulation. More importantly, we’ll share a practical roadmap to help security leaders close these gaps and get ahead of AI risks before regulators and attackers do.

You’ll learn:
• Why most enterprises are blind to AI usage and the risks that it creates
• How AI agents and prompts have become the riskiest edges of enterprise AI
• Why treating AI as a “shadow identity” is leaving sensitive data exposed
• Where controls and governance are falling short, and how to fix them with OWASP-aligned best practices

The State of AI Data Security: Closing the Readiness Gap

AI adoption is accelerating across enterprises, but security teams are struggling to keep pace. Organizations need both visibility into their AI footprint and real-time protection against emerging threats. In this technical deep dive, join Zain Malik (Director, Product Marketing) and Yuval Sarel (Senior Product Manager) as we demonstrate how Cyera's AI Guardian delivers comprehensive AI security through a data-centric approach.

We'll start by framing the core challenge: how do you enable AI innovation while maintaining control over your data? You'll learn how AI Guardian's unified platform addresses this through two integrated capabilities:

- AI-SPM (AI Security Posture Management): Discover and inventory all AI in use across your organization, from public tools like ChatGPT to embedded copilots and homegrown agents on AWS Bedrock. See how data classifications integrate seamlessly, compare AI assets against business purpose, and establish a single source of truth as integrations mature.

- AI Protect (Runtime Protection): Monitor and respond to AI threats in real-time. We'll walk through live alerts, demonstrate blocking policies via our new browser extension, and show how our AI Firewall architecture protects homegrown applications at runtime by leveraging the data context Cyera already has to secure your AI interactions with precision.

This 45-minute session includes a live product demo and Q&A. If you're evaluating AI security solutions or planning your AI governance strategy, you'll leave with practical insights into securing AI adoption at scale.

Who should attend: CISOs, Security Operations teams, IT Leadership, and anyone responsible for AI governance and security in their organization.

Cyera Product Spotlight | Inside AI Guardian: Visibility and Real-Time Security for Enterprise AI

Most CISOs began their DLP journey with a straightforward goal: understand where data is going and know when something’s wrong.
But over time, the data sprawled. Policies multiplied. Teams burned out. And the one question that should be simple - is our data at risk? -became the hardest to answer.

DLP is now at a critical inflection point. In this session, Francis Odum, Founder of Software Analyst Cyber Research, and Linda Park, Product Marketing Director at Cyera, will discuss how leading teams are consolidating their DLP signals into a single intelligence layer - one that unifies the controls they already own into an orchestrated system that finally works together.

You’ll walk away knowing how to:
- Use AI to reduce the noise and cost of DLP
- Make better decisions with shared data and identity context
- Identify exfiltration earlier across data at rest, in use, and in motion
- Improve the performance and outcomes of your DLP program
