Challenges

Zero Authoritative Inventory: Each new service SaaS integration or analytics pipeline created a fresh data store , but no central record of what was inside.

Manual, error-prone Discovery: Ad-hoc scans and developer surveys took weeks and still missed hidden copies, especially in third-party tools. 

Escalating Regulatory Pressure: Privacy and Legal needed defensible evidence that sensitive data was located, classified and protected. 

Solution

Cyera turned months of blind-spot hunting into minutes of continuous assurance, demonstrating that modern DSPM is no longer optional for cloud-first, regulation-bound enterprises.

Results

Access to a complete data map: Unknown stores dropped and every bucket, database and SaaS repository now cataloguedAM

Faster classification: What once took days per store now finishes in minutes, enabling weekly risk reviews instead of quarterly 

Incident prevention: 3x as many potential sensitive-log exposures caught before they left production

Cross-functional cohesion: Shared dashboards that gave Privacy and Legal the same evidence as Security

"Cyera gave us the map, the context, and the automation to fix issues before they turned into incidents, without adding headcount."
