Maximize Remediation ROI with Precision: Introducing Cyera’s Policy Analytics Top 10

Knowing where your risk lives is just the beginning. Next up is knowing which actions will drive the biggest impact. At Cyera, we're committed to arming security teams with visibility and actionability. That’s why we’ve rolled out a powerful new enhancement to Policy Analytics: the Top 10 Risk Objects view and Remediation ROI widget.

The Policy Analytics page offers a comprehensive view of a specific policy’s risk landscape. It enables you to track whether the associated risk is trending upward or downward, pinpoint the datastores and objects with the highest number of records at risk, and see how much of the risk has been remediated versus what remains. This is especially valuable for policies with a large volume of issues, as it provides a clear, at-a-glance overview of remediation progress across instances. It also helps prioritize remediation efforts based on their potential impact on reducing overall policy risk.

More Remediation ROI Insights & Guidance for customers

Time and attention are two things that are in short supply these days. 

At the top of the new view, we’ve added a Remediation ROI widget to fast track to results. 

‍

Above is an example of insights and the impact on minimizing risk: Remediated 2 key datastores to reduce 65.9% of policy risk.

This is risk-based prioritization made real. You’re no longer playing whack-a-mole with minor violations. You’re executing high-impact, data-informed action plans that show measurable results.

Remediate Data Issues Faster

Identifying, and understanding, the key risk drivers is fundamental to accelerating remediation. The updated dashboard connects each datastore and risk object directly to its number of records, share of risk, and Issue ID. And because every object is tied to a data source and context, you can understand not just the “what,” but the “why” behind the exposure. With that clear view, teams can jump into remediation workflows with a single click. 

For example, for any issue tied to a policy, you can kick off remediation workflows directly from the platform. Open tickets, send targeted email notifications, remove public access or apply Microsoft Sensitivity Labels etc. 

The Top Datastores tab calls out the 10 datastores with the highest volume of at-risk data. Use this view to understand where risks are most concentrated at the datastore level. 

For example, in the image below, the top 4 datastores contain over 72% of the risk across 9 objects:

‍

The Top Objects tab lists the top files and tables across all issues in your environment for the policy containing the highest number of records at risk given policy. This gives you a cross-environment view of exactly which objects are driving the bulk of your risk exposure. It’s one of the most powerful ways to cut through the noise and focus your team’s attention on the high-value, high-risk data that matters most.

For example, in the image below, the top 5 objects contain 65.5% of the risk:

Why This Matters to Enterprise teams

This new capability allows data security leaders to maintain visibility into remediated records across all issues within created policies, to clearly understand the impact of your security actions. Teams can then monitor changes and improvements over time to assess the effectiveness of remediation efforts, demonstrate progress toward data security goals, and ensure continuous improvement in their data security posture.

Remediation isn't about checking boxes. It’s about reducing real-world risk. With Cyera's new Policy Analytics capability, we're giving teams the intelligence they need to focus on what matters:

• Solve the issues that matter most
• Reduce a greater amount of risk
• Accelerate time to value of data security platforms
