Stop Data Leaks With Blocking You Can Finally Trust. Introducing Endpoint DLP.

Somewhere in your enterprise right now, an operations manager (let’s call her Christine) is about to upload a document about a pending acquisition to her personal Dropbox. An engineer named Cody is asking his AI coding assistant to chase down a bug. The coding assistant opens the project folder, reads the source code, and prepares to upload a file to a shared space contractors can reach. One action could expose a deal before it closes. The other could put proprietary code in the wrong hands.

The endpoint has always been one of the top sources of data leaks. It’s where people perform much of their daily work with sensitive data, and it has the most ways out. What changed is who works there. Copilots, coding agents, and local agents, some unsanctioned, now act with a user’s identity and take many unseen steps between an instruction and an answer. That translates to less oversight and more exits.

The controls you run were built for a different job. A browser extension can’t see the desktop AI app next to the browser, and a gateway can’t see the file reads and tool calls that happen before traffic is routed. Meanwhile, a USB copy, a print job, and a paste into a desktop application never touch any of them. The legacy endpoint data loss prevention (DLP) tool meant to catch these has taught many teams to stop blocking. They set it up, hit a wave of false positives, and drop back to alert-only mode.

Today we’re introducing Endpoint DLP, part of Cyera Endpoint. It brings what Cyera knows about your data to enterprise laptops and workstations, so each decision weighs the data sensitivity, who’s moving it, and where it’s going. Risky actions stop before data leaves the device, and legitimate work keeps moving, so blocking is something you can turn on and keep on.

With Cyera Endpoint, you can:

• Enforce with your business context. Cyera already knows what’s sensitive, who owns it, and who should access it, and Cyera Endpoint brings that knowledge to the device. With real-time validation, the Cyera platform adds data, identity, destination, and business context. Cy Triage analyzes the action and enforces the decision before it completes, so legitimate work keeps moving.
• Catch what patterns miss with on-device AI. A local small language model augments pattern-based detection by classifying what the content actually means, so sensitive data is detected even when it matches no pattern.
• Secure people and agents with one sensor. One endpoint deployment covers device channels (clipboard, USB and removable media, printing, network drives, and sync clients), supported native AI applications, and local agents. It’s all managed in the Cyera platform.

Legacy endpoint DLP breaks in three places, and AI agents make each one worse

Most endpoint DLP relies on static policies that are painful to build and out of date the day they ship. It lacks context: your crown jewels don’t match a regex, and it can’t tell which data flows are normal for your business or who should be allowed to do what. And it’s siloed, because every new risk adds another disparate security tool to the device and a little more load. Security teams know what happens next: policies exist that no one has time to turn on.

Agents widen every gap. A pattern match can’t tell Cody’s bug fix from a leak, and an imprecise decision costs you twice: it blocks work that should have gone through and lets through risk that shouldn’t have.

That calls for a different foundation: DLP that starts with an understanding of your data. With Cyera’s classification, on-device AI, and your business context behind each decision, security teams can block real risk and keep legitimate work moving.

Monitor how data is being moved by people and agents on the endpoint

Start with Christine. A paste into a desktop AI app, a copy to a USB drive, a print job: each action that touches sensitive data is tied to the person, the device, the application, and the data involved.

Take Cody. His assistant opened the project folder, read the source code, and attempted to upload a file to that shared space. Cyera Endpoint connects the activity to the assistant, Cody, and his device. Your security team can also discover supported local agents and coding assistants running on your devices, including ones nobody approved.

Understand what the data means, using the context you already built

Back to Christine. Her document holds details of a pending acquisition, and her destination is a personal account. The file Cody’s assistant is trying to upload holds proprietary source code, and its destination is a shared space contractors can reach. Company policy bars both. Approving an app never answered whether these specific actions are allowed.

Endpoint DLP policies start from what your team knows is sensitive. They draw on the data classes and topics Cyera Data Security Posture Management (DSPM) has identified in your environment. Cy Learn captures your team’s feedback as memories that preserve business context and inform those policies, so decisions reflect how your business works.

On the device, Cyera Endpoint reads the content and matches it against those policies. Pattern detection finds known formats. A small language model running on the device classifies content by meaning, so Cyera Endpoint catches sensitive information that follows no predictable pattern.

Protect the data without slowing down the device or the business

Now the decision. When Christine uploads the acquisition document, Cyera Endpoint holds the action. With real-time validation, the Cyera platform weighs what the document is, who Christine is, where it’s going, and your business context. Cy Triage analyzes the action and enforces the block through the endpoint sensor, so the upload is stopped before data leaves the device. Her print job for a legal document goes through, because Cyera’s memory says that printing copies for signatures is routine. Cyera Endpoint blocks the assistant’s upload before the source code reaches the contractor space. Cody and his assistant can keep working on the bug.

You control the data and the action without banning the application. Blocking earns trust when each decision rests on what the data is and what your business considers normal. Start by monitoring. Add coaching, justified overrides, and blocking as your confidence grows. Every block is recorded. Locally available policies and classification maintain enforcement for laptops off the network.

“We needed our teams to use AI and move fast without putting sensitive data at risk. With Cyera Endpoint, we have clear visibility into risky data movement to AI on our laptops, so we can protect what matters. Approximately 99% of the alerts it raises are true positives, letting our team focus on real risk instead of chasing noise.” — Chase Pasciuto, CISO, Cyera

Let agents prioritize risk across your DLP program

Cy Triage has already analyzed and prioritized the blocked upload, with the data involved and the action that triggered the policy, so your analysts start with the real risk. In Cyera Omni DLP, your analyst follows Christine’s related attempts across channels and sees what other sensitive data she can reach.

Get started with Cyera Endpoint

Cyera Endpoint brings data protection to the devices where employees and agents work. Connected with Cyera Omni DLP, endpoint alerts become part of the broader picture, giving your team the context to investigate risk across your DLP program.

Teams tell us they have no room for another security tool on the endpoint or another console to manage. With Cyera Endpoint, your team runs one program, with less deployment and management overhead. If you want fewer endpoint agents on each device, Cyera Endpoint can handle the DLP workflows you rely on today, where they’re supported, and it works alongside your EDR.

Cyera Endpoint is available now as an add-on for customers who already use Cyera Omni DLP, Cyera Agent Guardian, or both.
