Cyera, which develops software that helps large organizations find and protect sensitive data as they deploy AI, has raised $400 million from Goldman Sachs, CTech reported on September 22. The investment would bring Cyera’s 2026 funding to $1.4 billion after two earlier large rounds.
The product starts by scanning an organization’s data, classifying sensitive material by meaning and showing where it sits and who can reach it. Security teams can then use that map to find exposures and apply safeguards. That is the practical link between Cyera’s original data-protection business and its newer work around AI deployments.
Cyera has expanded from data security posture management into data loss prevention, identity and access controls, and governance over AI use inside enterprise applications. In plain English, the platform is meant to help companies control which people, software services and AI agents can reach sensitive information instead of treating every data store as a separate security problem.
Capital has come quickly. Cyera announced a $400 million Series F led by Blackstone at a $9 billion valuation in January, followed by a $600 million Series G at a $12 billion valuation in June. The reported Goldman investment would be its third large financing this year, with the three rounds totaling $1.4 billion.
In January, Cyera said it secured data and AI systems for 20% of the Fortune 500, had more than 1,100 employees and operated in 15 countries; those are company-reported figures. CTech’s initial report did not say whether Goldman bought new shares, existing shares or both, so the amount reaching Cyera’s balance sheet remains unclear.
