About Orca Security
Orca Security provides a cloud security platform that covers code, cloud, and AI environments. It sells to enterprises, from Fortune 500 companies to cloud-native businesses, and to partners such as solution providers and cloud service providers. The platform aims to give visibility, context, and action for cloud and AI risks. The platform uses agentless scanning called SideScanning to find risks across cloud accounts, workloads, and AI systems. It also offers a runtime sensor for observability and protection. Orca correlates signals from code, cloud, and AI to prioritise the risks that are actually exploitable, helping teams focus on what matters. It integrates with existing tools like Slack, Jira, and SIEMs. Orca helps customers reduce cloud risk, secure AI, secure code, protect workloads, and detect and respond to threats. It provides a unified view of cloud posture, identity permissions, workload security, sensitive data, and runtime threats. The company also offers a partner programme for solution providers and cloud service providers.
