Delinea integrates with Cyera to make identity risk data-aware

Delinea has announced a product integration with Cyera that connects privileged identity access to sensitive-data exposure, automatically correlating each identity with the data it can reach so security teams can focus on the highest-risk access paths.

The integration is designed to make identity security 'data-aware': accounts with access to mission-critical data are automatically elevated in risk scoring, letting teams prioritise access reviews and least-privilege enforcement by the sensitivity of the data at stake rather than working through an undifferentiated queue of privileged accounts.

Technically, the Delinea Platform and Cyera’s data security posture management (DSPM) product connects via API.

Cyera continuously discovers, classifies and monitors sensitive data across cloud and on-premises datastores, and passes those classification labels and exposure context into Delinea, where each identity - human, machine or AI agent - is correlated with the data it can access to produce a continuously updated risk picture.

“Organisations cannot afford to manage access risk in one tool and data risk in another and hope someone connects the dots,” said Chris Kelly, president of Delinea.

"As human, machine, and AI identities multiply, security teams need better context to prioritise risk and govern access with confidence. Delinea and Cyera help bring identity and data context together so teams can focus on the risks that matter most.”
