§ Pitch deck breakdown
How Cyera would pitch themselves.
Target customer
F1000 CISOs and Chief Data Officers governing thousands of cloud services (Snowflake, S3, Drive, M365) with sensitive customer + regulated data.
Problem they solve
Enterprises don't know what sensitive data they have or where. GDPR/HIPAA/CCPA breaches cost $4M+ on average; existing DLP tools (Symantec, Forcepoint) were built for on-prem.
Key differentiator
Agentless, AI-classified data security — Cyera maps every data store and tags PII/PHI/financial data automatically. Single platform replaces a dozen point tools.
Go-to-market strategy
Sequoia + Accel backing accelerates F500 enterprise penetration. Compliance-driven buying (GDPR, AI Act). Free initial risk assessment converts to multi-year contracts.
