Orca Security

Orca Security provides a cloud security platform built on agentless technology. The company developed patented SideScanning technology that scans cloud environments without requiring agents to be installed on workloads. This approach provides visibility across cloud assets including virtual machines, containers, and serverless functions. The platform operates as a Cloud Native Application Protection Platform (CNAPP) that consolidates multiple security capabilities. It performs cloud security posture management (CSPM), vulnerability management, and identifies attack paths to help organizations prioritize risks. The solution integrates with AWS, Azure, and other cloud providers through a read-only connection that scans workload configurations and runtime data. Orca Security's Unified Data Model correlates security findings across different cloud layers to provide contextual insights. The platform identifies vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, malware, lateral movement risks, and compliance violations. It generates alerts that can be routed to SIEM, SOAR, and ticketing systems. The company was founded by Gil Geron and Avi Shua, who previously held positions at Check Point Software Technologies. Orca Security has raised approximately $630 million in funding at a $1.8 billion valuation. The company serves enterprise customers across multiple industries and geographic regions, with recognition as AWS Global Security Partner of the Year in 2022.
