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’s Agentless Side-Scanning Delivers Zero-Overhead Cloud Security

    Reviewed on May 23, 2026
    Review provided by G2
    What do you like best about the product?
    We run data validation pipelines and corporate cloud hosting for our clients. Because we process millions of transactions, zero-latency cloud performance is non-negotiable. Orca’s agentless side-scanning is brilliant for this. Installing traditional security agents on heavily utilized databases creates unacceptable CPU overhead. Orca connects directly to our Azure and AWS environments via API, which fits our setup well.
    What do you dislike about the product?
    When we connected Orca to a client’s legacy cloud infrastructure during initial onboarding, the scan generated an overwhelming number of alerts because Orca scans everything, including orphaned staging servers and forgotten backup environments. The dashboard instantly filled with thousands of low-level misconfigurations, and it took weeks to manually filter through them.
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    Shadow IT is the enemy of cloud security. Developers frequently spin up temporary cloud servers to test a new module and then forget to delete them. Orca automatically discovers every single asset the moment it’s provisioned, giving us a perfectly accurate, real-time map of our hosted perimeter.

    Orca Security Delivers Agentless, Total Vulnerability Visibility for High-Traffic Campaigns

    Reviewed on May 22, 2026
    Review provided by G2
    What do you like best about the product?
    At Marketing Bugle, we build and host high-traffic promotional websites, sweepstakes platforms, and digital advertising campaigns for enterprise brands. During a major product launch or Super Bowl campaign, our cloud servers experience massive traffic spikes. Orca Security’s agentless side-scanning is critical for us, because we can’t risk installing traditional security agents on our client-facing web servers. Orca connects directly through the API and gives us total vulnerability visibility without touching or slowing down our marketing environments.
    What do you dislike about the product?
    Marketing agencies are notorious for spinning up infrastructure and then forgetting about it. When we first deployed ORca, the initial scan triggered an overwhelming avalanche of alerts, because it uncovered dozens of orphaned staging servers and long-forgotten microsites from campaigns we ran three years ago.
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    Shadow IT is rampant in digital marketing. Creative teams frequently spin up temporary cloud assets to test new web designs and then forget to tear them down. Orca automatically discovers every single asset the moment it is provisioned.

    Orca Seamlessly Integrates with CI/CD to Prevent Misconfigured Infrastructure

    Reviewed on May 20, 2026
    Review provided by G2
    What do you like best about the product?
    We recently launched a custom mobile app for listeners: a hyper-localized audio delivery app built on the backend of somato cloen, highly optimized for rapid geo-routing of local news and music. Orca integrates seamlessly into the CI/CD pipelines for this app. Before the new version, Orca infrastructure-as-code templates and the Docker containers physically stopped our developers from pushing misconfigured infrastructure.
    What do you dislike about the product?
    During rapid, agile sprints—when we’re pushing dozens of micro-updates to the app for the special holiday broadcast—the Orca pipeline scans add a few minutes of latency to every single build.
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    We used to discover security flaws only after an app update was already live for our listeners. Orca catches vulnerabilities during the coding phase, saving our engineering team hundreds of hours of rework.

    Agentless Scanning and Clear Risk Scoring Make Vulnerability Triage Easy

    Reviewed on May 20, 2026
    Review provided by G2
    What do you like best about the product?
    The agentless scanning makes deployment simple, and the risk scoring is very clear. It’s easy to see which vulnerabilities need attention first, without spending too much time digging through alerts or overanalyzing them. Overall, the platform feels straightforward and user-friendly, especially compared to some other security tools.
    What do you dislike about the product?
    Some of the more detailed findings could use a bit more technical explanation to make them easier to understand. Also, a few parts of the navigation take some time to get familiar with, so there’s a small learning curve at first.
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    It helps us monitor vulnerabilities and cloud risks without adding extra operational complexity. The prioritization is clear, which saves time and improves how quickly we can respond to security issues. Overall, it makes day-to-day security monitoring much more manageable.

    Orca’s Side-Scanning Secures Mission-Critical ERPs Without Performance Drag

    Reviewed on May 17, 2026
    Review provided by G2
    What do you like best about the product?
    At Wix ERP, we host and manage massive, mission-critical enterprise resource planning systems for our corporate clients. An ERP database holds the company’s crown jewels: financial ledgers, HR records, and supply chain data. The greatest advantage of ORca security is its side-scanning technology. Installing traditional security agents on heavily utilized ERP databases creates unacceptable CPU overhead and latency.
    What do you dislike about the product?
    When we onboard a new enterprise client and connect Orca to their legacy cloud infrastructure, the initial scan generates an absolute avalanche of alerts. That’s because Orca scans everything, including staging servers and forgotten backup environments.
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    Shadow IT is the enemy of ERP security. Developers frequently spin up temporary cloud servers to test new model integrations and then forget to delete them. Orca automatically discovers every asset the moment it’s provisioned.
