About Sentra
Sentra sells a platform that finds sensitive datasets across cloud, SaaS, on-prem and AI services and shows which people and AI agents can reach them. Sentra says it finds sensitive data, maps which people and AI agents can access it, and removes the access that should not be there, all inside the customer's environment. The company states its aim as knowing what sensitive data every AI agent can access, understanding what each agent can do with that data, and continuously enforcing the right controls. Sentra says one platform runs inside the customer's environment and powers every module.[3][4][8][10]
Sentra keeps a continuously updated inventory of sensitive data across cloud, SaaS, warehouses, collaboration tools and on-prem stores, including the knowledge bases behind copilots and agents. Sentra describes its discovery as agentless across cloud, SaaS, data platforms, file shares and on-prem. Sentra says it has 250+ built-in classifiers and 130+ file formats, with over 98% accuracy and under 1% false positives. Sentra says it can classify the knowledge bases, training sets and data stores behind Bedrock, SageMaker, Azure OpenAI, Vertex AI, Databricks, Snowflake Cortex, Microsoft 365 Copilot and Gemini for Workspace.[9][14]
Sentra says it continuously removes shadow, stale and toxic data from AI pipelines, RAG indexes and knowledge bases. Sentra masks, redacts or tokenizes PII, regulated data and toxic structured content at the source before it feeds any AI pipeline. Sentra aims to make entitlements follow the data so that every user and AI agent sees only what they are entitled to, across the data plane and the AI plane. Sentra Shadow AI DLP combines Shadow AI Discovery with browser-based data protection to discover AI usage and prevent sensitive data from being shared with AI. Sentra points to Microsoft Copilot, ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and hundreds of other AI tools as part of everyday work. Sentra can block, warn, or require user justification before sensitive data is shared with AI.[3][4]
Sentra fixes clear-cut exposures, like a confidential file shared publicly, automatically and sends ambiguous cases to the data owner. Sentra says a policy can disable public links, remove external users, revoke excess permissions, quarantine files or delete redundant copies. Sentra routes judgment calls to the data owner in Slack, Teams, Jira or ServiceNow and tracks every issue to closure. Sentra continuously checks where regulated data lives, who and what can reach it, and whether AI uses it within policy. Sentra's continuous regulatory coverage names GDPR, HIPAA, PCI DSS, CCPA, SOC 2, ISO 27001, EU AI Act, NIST AI RMF and emerging AI frameworks. Sentra says audit trails exist for every dataset, classification decision, access event and enforcement action.[3][5][16]
Sentra says discovery, classification and analysis run inside the customer's environment, which keeps Sentra out of the customer's data-transfer scope. Sentra connects to existing security, cloud and AI stacks so governance follows data everywhere it goes. Sentra's Jira integration creates, updates and assigns tickets when an issue is created, and its ServiceNow integration does the same. Sentra's Slack integration sends issues and notifications to a channel of the customer's choice, and its Microsoft Teams integration does the same. Sentra's PagerDuty integration triggers incidents from incoming issues. Sentra's Splunk integration sends issues to Splunk SIEM, and its Microsoft Sentinel integration sends issues and notifications to Microsoft Sentinel. Sentra's Wiz integration enriches the Wiz Security Graph with Sentra's data findings.[3][11][16]
For financial organizations, Sentra says it can discover and classify high-risk data across cloud environments. Sentra says it can ensure compliance with PCI DSS, GDPR and CCPA. For healthcare, Sentra says it discovers and classifies sensitive PHI across cloud environments and supports automated reporting for HIPAA and HITRUST. For retail, Sentra says it secures e-commerce systems, ensures compliance and mitigates supply chain risks. Sentra says retailers can streamline adherence to PCI-DSS, GDPR and other frameworks and detect violations like exposed credit card or customer data.[5][6][7]
Sentra says its licences are generally based on the volume of data stored across IaaS, PaaS, DBaaS, SaaS and on-premises environments. Sentra says it gives quotes tailored to scale, stack and organization priorities. Sentra undergoes an annual SOC 2 Type 2 audit against the AICPA Trust Services Criteria, and the report is available on request under NDA. The Standards Institution of Israel certifies that Sentra operates an Information Security Management System conforming to ISO/IEC 27001:2022, issued May 12, 2025 and valid through May 15, 2028. Sentra states penetration testing every six months and says customer data is deleted within 24 hours of offboarding.[2][3][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][16]
