Identify and Eliminate Every Insider Threat, including AI, the Fastest-growing Risk to Enterprise Data, with Cy4Data’s Behavior Engine

SAN JOSE, Calif.: #RSAC2026--Cy4Data Labs, the first cybersecurity company to deliver true in-use data protection and real-time intrusion detection, today at RSAC 2026 (South Hall, Booth #760) announced Cy4Data’s Behavior Engine for insider threat detection, reducing the average time to identify and contain a data breach from more than 200 days1 down to seconds for the first time. Standard to the company’s always-encrypted flagship solution Cy4Secure, Cy4Data’s Behavior Engine is engineered around a decisive three-phase framework: Detect. Deny. Eject. The company’s simple, powerful approach to insider threats enables organizations to move beyond reactive security, transforming insider risk management into a proactive, intelligence-driven defense strategy that safeguards critical data, ensures compliance, and preserves operational integrity.

“Whether it’s due to unknown vulnerability, human error, or malicious intent, according to IBM, insider attacks are by far the costliest data breaches, averaging $4.92 million in associated damages. With AI-driven attacks unearthing new vulnerabilities at unprecedented velocity, the need for effective insider threat detection has never been more urgent,” said Lance Smith, CEO & Cofounder, Cy4Data Labs. “Because of the unique architecture of Cy4Secure, our atomic-level encryption protects data natively, identifying anomalies in the behavior of the data itself and instantly neutralizing the threat. Cy4Data’s Behavior Engine delivers unprecedented peace-of-mind for security teams as new technologies accelerate the expansion of threat surfaces across industry, government, and academia, no matter where the danger is lurking.”

Detect. Deny. Eject: Neutralize insider threats in milliseconds

For data-driven enterprises, insider threats remain one of the most persistent and damaging security risks, originating from employees, contractors, or trusted partners with legitimate access to sensitive data. Further, AI-driven attacks are exponentially expanding the potential for an insider-related breach. But today’s databases lack context to identify anomalies in the way data is being accessed. They see queries, not intent. Though insider threats have been one of the most persistent, urgent problems in enterprise IT, this is the first time a cybersecurity company has been able to offer a real solution.

Cy4Secure leverages advanced behavioral analytics, real-time monitoring, and AI-driven anomaly detection to identify early indicators of malicious or negligent insider activity. By continuously analyzing the way users access data across endpoints, networks, and cloud environments, the Cy4Secure platform’s new Behavioral Engine distinguishes normal operational patterns from high-risk deviations with precision and microsecond speed.

"Integrating Cy4Secure into our payments data platform guarantees that personally identifying information is fully protected from attacks, no matter where they originate,” said Ryan Bott, CEO of Ordr. “When dealing with globally recognized, high-profile sports, entertainment and hospitality brands we needed an unbreakable security solution to ensure the trust of our customers. Cy4Data has been absolutely central to our ability to deliver fully secure, encrypted, and compliant transactions across multiple partner organizations without concern that any bad actors can gain access along the way.”
