The Orca Cloud Security Platform provides multiple tools in one solution to detect and prioritize cloud security risks in all Azure workloads and to deliver full visibility into an organization’s entire cloud estate without using agents or disparate tools. Powered by Orca SideScanning™ technology, the single platform covers workload and data protection, cloud security posture management, cloud infrastructure entitlements management (CIEM), vulnerability management, and compliance management capabilities. By combining all of these capabilities into a single platform and data model, Orca Security can flag attack chains containing risky combinations. For example, an infected workload that can assume a high privileged instance role allowing access to a database with PII is prioritized for immediate remediation.
Orca Security recently announced its expanded CIEM solution among other updates, as an essential capability for modern cloud security platforms. With this addition, Orca Security monitors all identities, roles, groups, permissions, and policies deployed in a public cloud environment and alerts personnel to violations in identity management best practices.
“I’m excited to announce this key milestone for Orca Security,” said Avi Shua, CEO and co-founder of Orca Security. “By being included on the Microsoft Azure Marketplace, we will enable more organizations to seamlessly onboard their Azure cloud environments and simplify their cloud security and compliance needs. We look forward to providing our customers with the comprehensive view they require, while reducing the complexity of their rapidly evolving cloud estates.”
