About Orca Security
A pioneer in cloud security, Orca Security is trusted by countless organizations worldwide to secure their daily operations.
Through its patented SideScanningTM technology, Orca enables organizations operating in the cloud to achieve robust security. Its platform offers comprehensive coverage for all cloud-related threats, providing protection within minutes and requiring no complex implementation. The system also empowers information security leaders by creating risk charts based on data from the organization’s cloud environment, allowing them to prioritize and address the most pressing threats from among thousands.
Orca’s innovative approach ensures security teams can quickly and effectively identify and mitigate vulnerabilities, keeping businesses secure.
Clients Around the World, Powered by AI Technology
Founded in 2019 by eight co-founders, including CEO Gil Geron, Orca’s platform quickly integrates, collects data, and identifies vulnerabilities, malware, misconfigurations, weak passwords, leaks, and other risks. Unlike other solutions that require lengthy implementation processes, Orca delivers immediate results without overloading systems or slowing performance. It leverages AI-based technology to not only alert teams to threats but also recommend tailored solutions, optimizing threat resolution.
Orca’s headquarters in Israel are located in Tel Aviv, near the Azrieli Towers, Sarona Complex, and Yehudit light rail station. The company also has offices in the U.S. (Portland, Texas, Baton Rouge) and India (Bangalore).
Strategic Partnership with Amazon
Orca is a global security partner of Amazon and has been recognized with an award for innovation and uniqueness in contributing to AWS cloud platforms. Out of 10,000 products and services integrated with Amazon’s cloud services, only a select few receive this prestigious recognition. Orca was also named a “Cool Vendor” in cloud security by Gartner, and is acknowledged as a leader in the CNAPP space.
Extraordinary $640 Million Capital Raise
To date, Orca has raised $640 million, reaching a valuation of $1.8 billion. Remarkably, $605 million was raised in under a year. Key investors include CapitalG, ICONIQ, GGV, Redpoint Ventures, Stripes, Lone Pine Capital, Temasek, Adams Street Partners, and Silicon Valley CISO Investments.
Work-Life Balance
Orca fosters a warm, inclusive, and transparent workplace culture for its 350 employees worldwide. Employees receive weekly updates on company progress and are encouraged to contribute new ideas through global hackathons and other initiatives. Orca offers a range of employee benefits and activities, from meals prepared by an in-house chef, including vegan options, to yoga classes, functional training, and football and basketball games. One popular tradition, Sous vide Sunday, is led by Shay Filosof, one of the company’s founders. “Happy Hour” events, company retreats, and team-building activities further enhance the company’s vibrant culture.
In response to recent events, particularly during the “Iron Swords” war, Orca provided emotional and professional support to its employees, with a special focus on its reserve soldiers and their families. The company organized volunteer efforts, donated funds, and leveraged its influence to help communities in the conflict regions, and provided financially support for businesses impacted by the war.
