Data security startup Cyera continues to accelerate its rapid growth trajectory. The company announced a $400 million Series F funding round, valuing the business at $9 billion. Headquartered in New York, Cyera has now raised more than $1.7 billion in total funding.

Notably, this round arrives just six months after its previous $540 million raise at a $6 billion valuation, underscoring strong investor confidence. The latest funding was led by funds managed by Blackstone, with continued backing from existing investors including Accel, Coatue, Lightspeed, Redpoint, Sapphire, Sequoia, and others.

At the core of Cyera’s momentum is its data security posture management offering. The platform helps enterprises clearly map where sensitive data resides across cloud environments and databases, monitor how employees and applications access that data, and proactively identify potential security gaps. As a result, organisations gain greater visibility and control over increasingly complex data ecosystems.

Meanwhile, the rapid rise of artificial intelligence has amplified both the volume of enterprise data and concerns around data exposure. This shift has played directly into Cyera’s strengths.

According to the company, it now serves one-fifth of the Fortune 500, while also more than tripling its revenue over the past year. Consequently, as enterprises race to secure critical data in an AI-driven world, investors have moved quickly to back Cyera’s expanding vision and market leadership.
