Orca Security has created the first cloud security solution that can meet these needs without agents or per asset integration, gaining full coverage literally within minutes. This unique ability is achieved using Orca Security’s patent-pending SideScanning™ technology, which reads the cloud configuration and workloads’ runtime block storage out-of-band to detect vulnerabilities, malware, misconfigurations, lateral movement risk, weak and leaked passwords, secret keys, unsecured PII, and more. Orca Security changes that paradigm by visualizing cloud resources through the lens of an attacker.” The fact is, competing solutions view cloud resources as simple lists whereas bad actors see a graph with a clear path of attack. They can’t see beyond individual issues residing on individual assets, which leads to a never-ending barrage of meaningless security alerts. What’s worse, agent-based solutions lack context. “Even after spending years plumbing agents in their environment, coverage is usually limited to less than fifty percent.

Practitioners are forced to waste their time installing and maintaining security agents instead of managing actual security risks,” said Avi Shua, CEO and co-founder of Orca Security. This context also helps to reduce thousands of security alerts to the critical few that matter, along with their precise path to remediation. Orca treats each customer’s cloud estate as an interconnected web of assets, prioritizing risk based on the underlying security issue combined with environmental context, including its accessibility and potential damage to the business. While competing cloud security solutions were built for on-prem environments, Orca Security was born in the cloud for the cloud. The funding will fuel Orca Security’s further disruption of the cloud security industry with touchless, workload-deep, context-aware security and compliance for AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Platform. LOS ANGELES – Decem– Orca Security today announced a $55 million Series B round led by ICONIQ Growth with participation from previous investors GGV Capital, YL Ventures, and Silicon Valley CISO Investments, supporting the company’s explosive growth with more than $82 million raised in less than two years.
