    Orca Security is the true Cloud Native Application Protection Platform (CNAPP) that identifies, prioritizes, and remediates risks and compliance issues across all of your workloads, configurations, and identities on AWS. Orca offers the industrys most comprehensive cloud security solution in a single platform, eliminating the need to deploy and maintain multiple point solutions.

In addition, Orca offers a lightweight agent for organizations that require real-time protection for critical workloads.

    RISK PRIORITIZATION: Orca effectively prioritizes risks by applying a granular risk score to each alert, and recognizes when seemingly unrelated issues can be combined to create dangerous attack paths straight to your crown jewels.

    FULL SDLC SECURITY: The Orca platform shifts security left by seamlessly integrating into the CI/CD process so that applications can be secured from code to cloud and back.

    AI-POWERED: Orca is at the forefront of leveraging Generative AI for simplified investigations and accelerated remediation, reducing required skill levels and saving cloud security, DevOps, and development teams time and effort, while significantly improving security outcomes.

    PURPOSE-BUILT CNAPP: Orca unifies many different point solutions in one platform, including CSPM, CWPP, CIEM, DSPM, Container security, API security, AI-SPM, and much more.

    Orca SideScanning: Fast, Agentless Multi-Cloud Visibility with Zero Blind Spots

    Reviewed on Jun 17, 2026
    Review provided by G2
    What do you like best about the product?
    Orca's SideScanning technology delivers total visibility across our entire multi-cloud environment (AWS, Azure, GCP) within minutes. Because it’s completely agentless, there is zero operational friction—no software to install, no performance impact on live workloads, and absolutely zero blind spots.
    What do you dislike about the product?
    Limited Dashboard & Reporting Customization: The out-of-the-box dashboards can feel somewhat rigid and more technical than executive-friendly. Customizing metrics or building bespoke KPI reports for non-technical stakeholders is difficult, often forcing our team to export raw data via API to external BI tools or spreadsheets to get the specific views we need.
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    Fragmented Tooling & High Overhead
    The Problem: Managing a disjointed security stack (separate tools for CSPM, vulnerability scanning, and compliance) created massive administrative overhead and visibility gaps.
    The Benefit: Orca consolidates these capabilities into a single Cloud-Native Application Protection Platform (CNAPP). It saves us significant licensing costs and slashes the time spent jumping between different consoles.

    Orca’s Native AI Security Across Code, Cloud, and Runtime

    Reviewed on Jun 17, 2026
    Review provided by G2
    What do you like best about the product?
    We evaluated platforms that clearly retrofitted or acquired their AI security story. With Orca, AI security is built natively into the same unified data model that has powered the platform from day one—from code to cloud to runtime—rather than relying on stitched-together tools. AI shows up across our codebase, our data pipeline, and the product our customers use, and Orca treats that entire footprint as a first-class part of the attack surface instead of an afterthought.
    What do you dislike about the product?
    The platform is deep enough that, even after months of using it, we’re still discovering new capabilities. A guided “you haven’t used this yet” nudge would be really helpful for surfacing features we might otherwise miss.
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    It gave us a single, coherent view of AI, cloud, and code risk, rather than three disconnected tools that each only showed a small slice.

    Orca Makes Security a Business Enabler with Clear Risk Visibility

    Reviewed on Jun 16, 2026
    Review provided by G2
    What do you like best about the product?
    Orca has changed how we approach security discussions at the leadership level. Rather than spending time wading through endless findings and reports, we can focus on understanding the risks that truly matter. The platform gives us the visibility and context we need to support business initiatives while still maintaining strong security standards. It’s helped shift security from being viewed as a blocker to being a partner that enables growth.
    What do you dislike about the product?
    Overall, the reporting capabilities are solid, but I’d like to see more streamlined executive dashboards that make it easier to deliver clear, board-level updates.
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    It helps bridge the gap between security requirements and business objectives. Instead of slowing down decision-making, we’re able to offer guidance that lets teams move forward with confidence. As a result, collaboration across the organization has improved, and it has strengthened the role of security as a strategic business function.

    Orca Security Review

    Reviewed on Jun 16, 2026
    Review provided by G2
    What do you like best about the product?
    Achieving total multi-cloud visibility across AWS, Azure, and GCP under a single, cohesive management dashboard is a spectacular victory for an enterprise supply chain network. Our shipping routing databases run on one cloud, our customer-facing tracking apps run on another, and our back-office partner management systems run on a third.
    What do you dislike about the product?
    The cloud asset consumption pricing architecture can introduce minor forecasting friction during long-term operational budgeting cycles, because our logistics platform aggressively auto-scales our cloud server cluster and container fleets to handle massive surges in transaction volume during the peak global holiday shipping seasons.
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    Enterprise B2B contract negotiations with massive international shipping clients frequently stall during gruelling vendor risk assessments. Orc provides automated, continuous, and highly auditable security, reducing project onboarding delays by weeks and helping us scale our partner channels with absolute confidence.

    Orca Security Review

    Reviewed on Jun 15, 2026
    Review provided by G2
    What do you like best about the product?
    From a day-to-day operational center perspective, Orca’s native webhook integrations and alerting pathways are exceptional. We’ve wired Orca directly into our central IT notification channels and DevOps environments, so the exact second a high-priority risk or cloud misconfiguration is detected, Orca pushes a highly detailed data payload straight to our engineers.
    What do you dislike about the product?
    Navigating and configuring deeply nested, role-based access permissions within the master Orca Management console can feel overly complex, especially when attempting to provision highly restricted, read-only dashboard access for a regional business lead. It’s difficult to set things up so they can track only their specific sub-department’s cloud security posture without getting pulled into layers of permissions that are hard to interpret and configure correctly.
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    Securing a fast-moving enterprise infrastructure with a lean security team used to feel like a continuous game of whack-a-mole. Orca removes the manual discovery lag, entirely transforming our threat tracking from a slow, retroactive auditing loop into an automated, rapid-response remediation pipeline.
