Our unified platform shows you what actually matters by prioritizing findings based on context like exposure, privilege, and potential impact.
Cloud teams love Orca because it’s fast to deploy, easy to maintain, and built to scale with the way real infrastructure works.

At Orca, we believe that in the right environment and with the right team, talent has no boundaries. This team spirit, together with our drive to always aim high (because the cloud is the limit), have quickly turned us into a global cloud security innovation leader.
