Cohesity enhances Data Security portfolio with Cyera DSPM to strengthen cyber resilience

Cohesity and Cyera have announced the launch of Cohesity Data Security Posture Management (DSPM), powered by Cyera. The unified solution closes the loop from discovery and classification to data protection and recovery, helping organizations reduce AI-related data risks and increase cyber resilience.

AI and data proliferation are becoming an enterprise-wide challenge: sensitive data is spreading across cloud, SaaS, and AI workflows faster than organizations can govern, and AI-powered agents are introducing new and opaque ways that increase exposure, compliance risk, and operational disruption. Many DSPM solutions struggle to keep pace with the scale, complexity, and speed of large enterprise environments, and to translate data visibility into actionable governance, timely remediation, and recovery readiness.

Cohesity DSPM, powered by Cyera, addresses this challenge by continuously discovering, classifying, and monitoring sensitive data at scale—using agentless scanning and AI-powered classification to deliver rapid, high-precision visibility across structured and unstructured data stores. Cohesity DSPM, powered by AI-native classification and remediation, delivers high-precision results (up to 95%) with rapid time-to-value—offering insights across petabytes of data in minutes. By unifying discovery, classification, and posture analysis, security teams gain a centralized view of sensitive data risk and can prioritize remediation actions to reduce exposure before incidents occur.

“Data is the foundation of modern business. And in the era of cloud and agentic AI, it is also where cyber risk concentrates and accelerates. At Cohesity, our 5 Steps to Cyber Resilience start with understanding and securing data before an attack ever occurs,” said Sanjay Poonen, CEO and President, Cohesity. “By expanding our partnership with Cyera and launching Cohesity DSPM, powered by Cyera, we are bringing best-in-class, AI-native data security posture management into our cyber resilience platform. Together, we help organizations continuously discover and classify sensitive data, reduce exposure, and close the loop from visibility to protection and rapid recovery so that they can innovate with AI confidently and securely.”

“Cyber resilience in the agentic AI era starts with understanding your data, because you cannot protect or recover what you cannot see,” said Yotam Segev, Co-founder and CEO of Cyera. “By bringing Cyera's purpose-built AI security platform directly into Cohesity’s best-in-class cyber resilience platform, we are advancing our shared vision around giving our joint customers the data security and protection backbone for AI-driven growth.”

“As Indian enterprises accelerate AI adoption and expand their hybrid cloud environments, the volume of sensitive data distributed across SaaS platforms, cloud services, and AI workflows is growing rapidly. This makes it increasingly challenging for organizations to maintain clear visibility into where critical data resides and how it is being used. With Cohesity DSPM, powered by Cyera, we are enabling customers in India to continuously discover and classify sensitive data, strengthen governance, and proactively reduce data exposure,” said Mayank Mishra, Senior Regional Director, Sales, India & SAARC, Cohesity. “By combining deep data intelligence with Cohesity’s cyber resilience platform, organizations can confidently embrace AI innovation while maintaining a strong security posture”

Cohesity DSPM, powered by Cyera, helps organizations reduce risk before an attack and speed recovery after an attack, delivering end-to-end data security and cyber resilience when paired with Cohesity Data Cloud. It also lowers total cost through accelerated deployment and redundant, obsolete, and trivial (ROT) data reduction, while supporting compliance and enabling faster adoption of cloud, SaaS, and AI. With this launch, Cohesity continues expanding its portfolio of leading data security solutions to empower customers to confidently innovate while staying secure across the entire attack lifecycle.

“As enterprise data volumes grow and AI adoption expands, organizations are finding that cyber resilience increasingly depends on having accurate, scalable visibility into their data estates,” said Todd Thiemann, Principal Analyst, Omdia. “Omdia research indicates that enterprises that suffered successful ransomware attacks look to better data classification and protection as top areas for improvement. The combination of best-of-breed data intelligence with enterprise-scale data protection and recovery, such as Cohesity’s collaboration with Cyera, addresses these needs by aligning visibility, security, and recovery around shared operational outcomes.”
