In January 2026, Cyera raised $400 million in Series F funding, led by Blackstone, tripling its valuation to $9 billion and bringing its total funding to over $1.7 billion. Recent developments include the acquisition of Ryft in April 2026 to extend its agentic AI security platform, and the appointment of Brandon Sweeney as President in February 2026. The company also launched new capabilities in March 2026, including Browser Shield for AI, Data Lineage for files, and Cyera MCP, addressing security gaps in AI adoption.
