Cyera, a data security startup, has secured $400 million in a Series F funding round, achieving a valuation of $9 billion. This significant financial milestone occurred on Thursday, just six months after the company raised $540 million at a $6 billion valuation. The latest funding round was spearheaded by funds managed by Blackstone, with strong participation from existing investors.
This growth is largely fueled by Cyera's data security posture management services, which help organizations identify sensitive data across cloud systems and databases. The company maps data usage, tracks employee and application interactions, and detects security vulnerabilities, a service in high demand.
