Cyral's data layer sidecar intercepts requests to every
database, data warehouse and data pipeline from any user, application
or tool, without impacting performance or scalability. The side car defers all session state management to the data layer connections. It alerts on suspicious activity and can block known threats and disallowed accesses. Logs, metrics, traces and alerts get sent to tools of your choice.
Cyral enables visibility and control without changing applications or workflows. Sidecar
deploys within your existing infrastructure, whether it be a cloud or on-prem environment as a Kubernetes service, autoscaling group, cloud function or host-based install. All the data flows and sensitive information stays inside the customer’s environment where the sidecar is deployed, creating no risk of spillage.
Users can deploy multiple sidecars in a high-availability configuration and use a SaaS-based control pane to administer them. Here integrations and provisioning can be managed centrally. Sidecar intercepts requests to data endpoints, continuously examining, normalizing, and analyzing requests for policy violations, and reacting to threats when needed.
Cyral's stateless data interception technology scales with workload and makes a sub millisecond impact on performance
