Orca Security
CEO: Avi Shua
Orca Security was founded in 2019, and in March closed a $20 million Series A funding round led by GGV Capital to invest substantially in talent, go-to-market growth, and research and development. The Los Angeles-based company employs 64 people, up from 33 employees a year ago, according to LinkedIn.
The company said it has created the first and only cloud security tool that can within minutes find vulnerabilities, malware, misconfigurations, leaked and weak passwords, lateral movement risk, and high-risk data without agents or per asset integrations. This allows customers to gain more visibility into AWS, Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud Platform at a fraction of the time and operational cost of alternative offerings, Orca said.
Orca Security in October unveiled the second generation of its cloud security platform, featuring unique capabilities built specifically to respond to the public cloud security and compliance needs of global financial services customers. The new offerings are designed to help companies in highly regulated industries use the public cloud to innovate safely, while staying in compliance with stringent regulations.
