Watch our exclusive interview with Yotam Segev, Co-Founder and CEO at Cyera.
Yotam takes us the cyber world, sharing the incredible journey behind the founding of Cyera — the market leader in DSPM (Data Security Posture Management).
As pioneers in this space, Cyera had to master the art of problem-solving from day one to earn the trust of #CISOs. Safe to say, their strategy worked — with nearly $800 million raised and a $3 billion valuation, Cyera is now the #fastest-growing data security company in #history.
We had a fascinating conversation about how they landed their first customers, how their #GTM strategy evolved over time, when the right moments were to raise capital, and what lies ahead for Cyera as they continue to lead the data security space. We also touched on the rise of #AI and its growing impact on the #cybersecurity landscape, as well as Yotam’s broader perspective on where the industry is headed in the next few years.
But perhaps the most unexpected insight?
How founding and leading a Dungeons & Dragons club in his hometown gave Yotam the early #skills needed to navigate sophisticated #clients and fierce #competition in today’s fast-moving #tech world. 🎲⚔️
