For an institution managing $1.5 trillion in assets and the retirement security of millions, data isn't just an asset. It's a liability if left unguarded. Cyera was built for exactly this.

The Challenge

Financial institutions face a data visibility crisis

TIAA operates at the intersection of two of the most regulated domains in the world — financial services and healthcare. Your data sprawl is vast: structured, unstructured, cloud-native, on-prem, and growing.

Most organizations at your scale don't have a full picture of where sensitive data lives, who has access to it, and whether it's protected. That gap is where breaches begin — and where regulators focus.

The 2026 regulatory landscape has made this harder to ignore. SEC cybersecurity disclosure rules, NYDFS amendments, and state-level privacy laws have moved data governance from a back-office concern to a boardroom conversation.

Data sprawl across hybrid environments

Petabytes of PII, PCI, and PHI scattered across cloud, SaaS, and on-prem — with no unified view of what's sensitive or where it lives.

Third-party and insider risk

Vendors, contractors, and overprivileged employees with access to data they don't need — a silent exposure most tools don't surface.

AI and LLM data exposure

As AI tools proliferate internally, sensitive data enters training pipelines, prompts, and outputs with no guardrails.

Regulatory obligation without visibility

You can't certify what you can't see. Audits, disclosures, and incident response all require a data map that most organizations don't have.

The Cyera Platform

Data Security Posture Management built for institutions like TIAA

Discover Everything

Agentless scanning across every cloud environment, SaaS application, and data store. See all sensitive data — structured and unstructured — in hours, not months.

Classify with Precision

Context-aware data classification purpose-built for financial services — PII, NPI, PCI, PHI, trade secrets, and custom categories aligned to your compliance framework.

Reduce Risk Continuously

Automated remediation workflows surface over-exposed data, misconfigured permissions, and policy violations — before they become incidents.

AI Guardian

Purpose-built for the AI era. Cyera maps what data your AI tools can access, flags shadow AI usage, and ensures sensitive data doesn't flow where it shouldn't.

Integrate Seamlessly

Deep integrations with your existing security stack — SIEM, SOAR, DLP, and IAM tools — so data context flows everywhere decisions are made.

Audit-Ready Reporting

Board-level dashboards and regulator-ready reports. Know your data posture at any moment — for SEC disclosures, NYDFS exams, or internal governance reviews.

Why Now

The window for proactive posture is narrow

01

SEC rules are in effect

The SEC's cybersecurity disclosure rules require material incident reporting within four business days. You need to know what data was affected — fast.

02

AI adoption is outpacing policy

Employees are using AI tools regardless of official guidance. Without data visibility, you can't know — or control — what's being shared with those systems.

03

Consolidation is a forcing function

Every M&A event, cloud migration, or vendor offboarding creates data risk. Knowing your posture before those events is cheaper than discovering it after.

04

The threat landscape is data-targeting

Modern threat actors go after specific data sets — participant records, account numbers, beneficiary information. Your data map is your incident response advantage.

"The question is no longer whether you've been breached — it's whether you know what the attacker found."

— Industry perspective on data-targeted threats

Cyera is trusted by leading financial institutions, insurers, and asset managers to answer the questions their existing tools can't: What sensitive data do we have? Where is it? Who can access it? Is it at risk?
