Cyera, an AI security platform designed for the age of agents, has announced expanded integrations with cloud data platform Snowflake at the company’s annual user conference, Snowflake Summit 26, aimed at helping enterprises safely scale their use of AI agents.
The partnership gives security and data teams greater oversight and control of sensitive information as adoption of Snowflake’s Cortex AI agents accelerates across enterprise environments. The integrations address three core challenges: discovering and classifying sensitive data at scale, monitoring how AI agents interact with that data, and enforcing access controls without interrupting existing workflows.
Three new capabilities have been introduced as part of the expanded collaboration. The first, one-click remediation of risky access through Snowflake Access Governance, is now generally available and connects column-level data discovery directly to enforcement, allowing security teams to apply native tag-based dynamic masking and least-privilege access policies without affecting downstream queries or pipelines. The second, Cyera AI Guardian, is due in private preview in July and will extend Cyera’s AI Security Posture Management capabilities to Snowflake Cortex AI, automatically cataloguing every Cortex service, classifying the sensitive data each agent handles, and mapping all associated Snowflake identities. The third capability, natural-language risk analysis through Snowflake Cortex Analyst, is generally available and allows customers to interrogate Cyera directly using plain-language queries to surface data risks, exposure levels, and compliance posture, and to generate executive reports without requiring SQL, an MCP server, or prompt engineering.
Cyera’s platform is built to discover and classify data at exabyte scale with greater than 95% precision, identifying sensitive records that may be at risk and enforcing access controls using Snowflake’s native policy framework.
Snowflake SVP of worldwide alliances and channels Amy Kodl said, “Security and data leaders are under enormous pressure to accelerate AI adoption without losing control of their competitive edge – their data. With Cyera, our customers can discover and protect sensitive data, gain visibility into how AI agents operate on Snowflake, and apply governance controls in real time, enabling faster adoption of Snowflake Cortex AI.”
OneDigital director of analytics Jason Westingskow said, “Cyera gives us clear visibility into sensitive data in Snowflake today, so we can understand risk and prioritize protection with confidence. We’re excited about what Snowflake Access Governance enables when paired with Cyera’s data intelligence—bringing sensitivity context into governance decisions to help scale consistent access controls across the business.”
Cyera chief strategy officer Jason Clark said, “Every CISO and CDO I talk to is being asked the same question: how do we move faster on AI without losing control of our data? Snowflake is the foundation for enterprise AI, and our expanded partnership ensures that foundation is secure by design. With Cyera, joint customers can see every Cortex AI agent, understand exactly what data it touches, and govern access at the column level, turning data security into the engine that accelerates AI adoption.”
