  ### 3. Effective Data Protection with User-Friendly Features

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Ankit S. | Coders - AI Training, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 29, 2025

**What do you like best about Cyberhaven?**

  ### 4. The next truly great thing in enterprise data security is Cyberhaven.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Brian H. | Director of Cybersecurity, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 23, 2024

**What do you like best about Cyberhaven?**

Cyberhaven has user-controlled override functions that work on email, web, USB, and peripheral data transfers to keep availability "always on" in my enterprise, provides an impression of comprehensive oversight to deter would-be insiders, and a lightweight feel that has virtually no user-experience for those who are always doing the right thing.

With so much emphasis on the user-experience, it's hard to put Cyberhaven in the category of DLP. It's almost like they need to make a new category.. like, "Company Operations and Data Assurance Technology" 

CODAT!

**What do you dislike about Cyberhaven?**

The user interface isn't the most intuitive i have ever seen, although the forest does get smaller with use. I won't say, "dislike", but I do think that the company hasn't done nearly enough to advertise itself.

I'd also like to see a lightweight version of the tool that only provides user pop-ups and logs activities vs. doing any sort of blocking.. there's a market for this, and the agent would be much simpler and less intrusive. You don't know how many times DLP gets blamed for new software causing performance issues. With a lightweight version, it would be virtually impossible for the CODAT agent to be targeted, yet you still get the detection, response, deterrence, and non-repudiation of a DLP capability.. and, honestly, that's how 99% of DLP tools are used anyway!

**What problems is Cyberhaven solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I mentioned everything in my feedback on the previous page.

  ### 5. Constant problems

**Rating:** 0.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Manufacturing | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 17, 2025

**What do you like best about Cyberhaven?**

I do not like Cyberhaven.  We experience constant problems with it at work.  It causes problems with users signing in and being able to use productivity applications.  It also slows down our computers making even new systems feel sluggish.
We have lost many ours if work trying to solve the problems caused by  Cyberhaven.

**What do you dislike about Cyberhaven?**

See the previous question.  The answer is there.

**What problems is Cyberhaven solving and how is that benefiting you?**

None

  ### 6. Innovative DLP Tool

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** nic s. | Security Engineer, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 10, 2024

**What do you like best about Cyberhaven?**

They have given us the ability to track and measure data movement. We had no visibility into certain areas of our internal systems. Through their file lineage feature, we can not only track movement before an incident, but we can continue to track where that data moves after an incident. This is something we couldn't find in other vendors. Combined with the ability to classify data sources and not just destinations. This gave us a huge head start in data classification.

**What do you dislike about Cyberhaven?**

Creating custom policies with multiple conditions is not always straightforward.  If you're used to creating a SQL style query to "filter" data, where each statement reduces events. There's a learning curve in Cyberhaven, and you might inadvertently be excluding more data than you wanted.  Support is always willing to jump in and refine policies. Once they are set up, they are pretty easy to maintain, especially if you're using a "list" to include/exclude destinations. But I wish the "filtering" logic was more intuitive.

**What problems is Cyberhaven solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Risk discovery, management, and mitigation have been goals on our radar. Cyberhaven has allowed us to make meaningful progress on our department and company goals while securing company data. It's also made data and business processes visible, helping us to understand business needs and workflows with better context.

  ### 7. DLP that provides real value

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Financial Services | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 27, 2024

**What do you like best about Cyberhaven?**

Cyberhaven allows us to meet and exceed contractual requirements for DLP.  It goes far beyond standard 3-2-4 or 4-4-4-4 blocking and allows us to protect IP from leaving the organization.   It also helps with Insider Threat as we have a “forensic” view of what happened to a file.  Did Johnny copy an important file, change the extension to try and make it look like a .png, share with someone internal and then email or copy to a file sharing site?  We have the details on what happened and when. We also have the ability to block these activities as needed/desired.  Finally, we have protection to question or block what is being sent to gen AI sites.   All in all, it is watching our back and provides details on what is moving in the organization.

**What do you dislike about Cyberhaven?**

Tuning for a large organization takes focus.  However, it is easy enough to do and makes sense as there is just a lot going on in large orgs.

**What problems is Cyberhaven solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Cyberhaven provides 3 key benefits: 

Exceeds customer expectations for DLP 

Protects company IP 

Always watching for Insider Threat

  ### 8. Cyberhaven lets us do DLP our way

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Andrew K. | Senior Information Security Engineer, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 19, 2024

**What do you like best about Cyberhaven?**

Traditional DLP tends to rely on content scanning while Cyberhaven cares about the provenance of the data. As we are a privacy-focused company that still needs to have some DLP in place, we can't just rely purely on content scanning. We care about where the data is actually coming from first and foremost. Viewing data lineage in the UI is incredibly intuitive and a standout feature.

**What do you dislike about Cyberhaven?**

Having more advanced features like webhooks and building out the API more will further cement this as one of the best DLP products on the market.

**What problems is Cyberhaven solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Implementing a DLP solution in a privacy-focused company.

  ### 9. Extremely simple to set up, wealth of information!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Manufacturing | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 12, 2024

**What do you like best about Cyberhaven?**

Cyberhaven is so simple to set up and getting it deployed to environments. It doesn't take a ton of configuration changes, deploy the agent to systems and then watch the data coming in.

**What do you dislike about Cyberhaven?**

The automated reports that get sent out are only in PDF. So if you have a table in a dashboard it does not get sent as a csv in the automated reports.

**What problems is Cyberhaven solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We needed a DLP solution that could look into CAD data and being able natively track those files to comply with audits. Cyberhaven natively connects to the various CAD applications that we use and able to monitor and control what is being done.

  ### 10. Next Gen DLP Solution

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Financial Services | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 18, 2024

**What do you like best about Cyberhaven?**

I find Cyberhaven the most immediate value add to our organization, the moment the sensor is installed, we have insight to what data is moving to where and how they were able to get there, it's full data visibility, full stop. By far, Cyberhaven's single pane of glass interface and incident/data reporting  was miles apart to their nearest competitor, the sensor performance is lightweight (also backed up by their SLA), from deployment to anti-tampering, is industry leading. The integration with our exisiting security stack goes hand in hand and fits with what we had, with little performance loss. I love this DDR product and we compared it with three other vendors, this is a leader.

**What do you dislike about Cyberhaven?**

Inline memory scanning during copy/paste operation (example program to program) but that's about it. Cyberhaven pretty much meets all our business requirements

**What problems is Cyberhaven solving and how is that benefiting you?**

A couple of regulatory framework; GDPR, ISO/IEC 27701:2019, Annual IT/Security Audit by Big4.

  ### 11. Great product experience

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Duran M. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 14, 2024

**What do you like best about Cyberhaven?**

Overall interface is easy to navigate once you get familiar with it. The real time threat-monitoring. The customer service from the Cyberhaven team is always quick and responsive. The product roadmap, there are always new and upcoming updates to the product. Bi-weekly Touch Bases with the account managers are timely and beneficial.

**What do you dislike about Cyberhaven?**

There is a good amount of documentation but I would like to see additional video tutorials. I would say there is limited mobile support.

**What problems is Cyberhaven solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Cyberhaven helps us prevent data loss by providing visibility into how sensitive data is being used and by implementing policies to prevent data loss from occuring. It also helps us comply with regulations such as GDPR, CCPA, and HIPPA.

  ### 12. Cyberhaven has proven to be a vital solution for our DLP program.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Manufacturing | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 01, 2024

**What do you like best about Cyberhaven?**

Cyberhaven customer support is top notch, and they are quick to address any issues or concerns. They have also been very willing to accept feedback for future product enhancements.  The product has proven to be extremely effective in blocking the egress of designated data. The adminstrative aspect of the portal is pretty easy to use, it has a lot of options for creating custom data sets that were able to match our complex environment.

**What do you dislike about Cyberhaven?**

I wouldn't say there are things I dislike about Cyberhaven.  We had a few challenges in the beginning but with the help of their support, those challenges were quickly overcome.

**What problems is Cyberhaven solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Cyberhaven is helping us to protect the egress of important data.  It is also helping us identify how people are working and the process of data flows. This visibility is giving us the opportunity to improve on our own processes regarding how data is shared.

  ### 13. Great exfiltration tool

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Phil M. | Director, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

The setup and customization was a bit involved

**What problems is Cyberhaven solving and how is that benefiting you?**

CyberHaven is an insider threat tool that allows us to capture external exfiltations and is now an integral part of our DLP control process.  It also sends alerts on exfiltration events to provide a proactive approach to exfiltations.

  ### 15. Cyberhaven is a vital part of our cyber security tool stack

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Mike Herrington C. | Program Management (Security and End-User Computing), Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 12, 2023

**What do you like best about Cyberhaven?**

Cyberhaven assists us in proactively alerting end-users regarding potentially risky activity as well as assisting during investigations.  Adding additional (managed) services has been like seamlessly adding additional team members.  The Cyberhaven team takes our feature requests seriously and helps us integrate new capabilities into our complex environment.  I would recommend considering Cyberhaven for any business looking to better secure their company against insider threats and prevent data loss.

**What do you dislike about Cyberhaven?**

I don't dislike anything about Cyberhaven.  It meets all our requirements.

**What problems is Cyberhaven solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Most recently, Cyberhaven is starting to show us where end-users are moving (or trying to move) data into external AI engines.  This visibility is helping us create policies and controls around AI use.

  ### 16. Cyberhaven - IT Security / Compliance teams should invest in this.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Bradley G. | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 06, 2024

**What do you like best about Cyberhaven?**

Cyberhaven support is fantastic.  We work closely with their support when we find any issues, whether bugs or user error, to resolve quickly and implement any fixes.  This implements easily with Azure.

**What do you dislike about Cyberhaven?**

I have nothing negative to say about Cyberhaven or dislike.  Although they are new to the space in DLP, their product is a great way to supplement already in place solutions.

**What problems is Cyberhaven solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Cyberhaven is solving a tracing issue for sensitive data.  The blocks in place are helping keep our data secure.

  ### 17. Very Happy. Re-Inventing The DLP Market

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Financial Services | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 02, 2024

**What do you like best about Cyberhaven?**

While tagging and classification are important, the ability to use data lineage and having quick control deployment options can be instrumental in preventing data loss even before full tagging and classification are in place.  

Super easy and fast to deploy and immediatly benafit from the data.

Not just a DLP platform.  The data collected can be used for IR and other Blue Team functions.

**What do you dislike about Cyberhaven?**

Custom policy creation is 'challenging' - but once deployed works well. Policy alerts are not cumulative. Ie 3 policies (which each have different trigger variables, increasing in severity) will all create an event if all three thresholds are met, rather than just the highest severity. URL detection can often alert against the last url open / active rather than the actual flow.

**What problems is Cyberhaven solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We long labored over DLP deployment with aim of deploying an effective, risk mitigating solution which didn’t impact the business.  Data classification, data owners & tagging are all extremely important tasks but can take an awful long time to embed within a business before you can overlay an DLP platform.  Cyberhaven allowed us to use an alternative method to move to the DLP phase by being able to use data linage with light touch across the business and data owners.  This allowed us to quickly apply data controls and almost reverse the traditional process.

  ### 18. DLP done right

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Legal Services | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 21, 2024

**What do you like best about Cyberhaven?**

- The data lineage separates this product from all DLP products.
- The product is easy to implement, easy to configure and easy to maintain.
- The support team is responsive.

**What do you dislike about Cyberhaven?**

- Communication about features being removed can be improved.

**What problems is Cyberhaven solving and how is that benefiting you?**

CyberHaven is allowing us to montor how data is accessed, moves across the network and then how it is shared with clients.  This allows us to ensure that these practices are in line with regulatory requirements and policies to ensure minimal risk to the business and its clients.
