Tamar Bar-Ilan is the Co-Founder and CTO of Cyera. Upon graduating from the IDF's prestigious Talpiot Leadership Academy, Tamar joined its elite cyber Unit 8200, where he built and ran the unit's cloud security division. As Israel’s National Security Agency, Unit 8200 was tasked with addressing advanced cyber threats by developing new
processes and technologies. This experience allowed Tamar to hone his technical and practical expertise and gain firsthand insight into the unique challenges of securing data in the cloud. This inspired Tamar and his long-time friend, Yotam Segev, to found Cyera in 2021. As CTO, Tamar leads Cyera’s deep commitment to understanding and protecting data by developing advanced technologies and tools driven by customer-inspired innovation.
