## Overview

### Key benefits of Orca Security

Rapid time to value: &#10;By reading your cloud configuration and workloads’ runtime block storage out-of-band without agents, Orca deploys in minutes - surfacing the most critical risks without the performance impact, organizational friction, coverage gaps and operational costs of agent-based solutions.&#10;&#10;Multiple tools in one: &#10;As a CNAPP, Orca simplifies cloud security by replacing multiple tools with a single SaaS-based cloud security platform for workload protection (CWPP), cloud security posture management (CSPM), cloud infrastructure entitlements management (CIEM),  including vulnerability management and compliance solutions.&#10;&#10;Prioritize the 1% of alerts that matter: &#10;Unlike other tools that operate in silos, Orca sees the big picture and prioritizes risk based on context, eliminating wasted time sifting through meaningless alerts and enabling you to focus on the 1% of truly critical issues.&#10;&#10;Deploy once, secure forever: &#10;Orca automatically detects and monitors new cloud assets as you add them, without requiring any manual updates.&#10;&#10;Detect risks missed by other solutions: &#10;Unlike other solutions, Orca leverages context-aware intelligence to recognize when seemingly unrelated issues can be combined to create dangerous attack paths leveraging lateral movement.&#10;&#10;Instant ROI: &#10;Orca eliminates countless IT hours spent installing and maintaining agents and sifting through thousands of low risk security alerts. By consolidating multiple tools in one platform, Orca increases efficiency and effectiveness and reduces licensing costs. &#10;&#10;Faster time to market: &#10;By integrating security and compliance into any CI/CD process, security gains control over the software development lifecycle while DevOps benefits from integrated security as part of their workflows.

## Reviews

### "Great tool with more functions than expected" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *26 May 2022* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Great tool, can be used for inventory, alarms on recent vulnerabilities, applying best practices, etc. It really makes some of the hard challenges in cloud security trivial.
> 
> **Cons**: Documentation can be better but thanks to the support team it is not that much of a problem.

### "Great Product" — 5.0/5

> **Jason** | *12 July 2024* | Financial Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I believe Orca is an amazing tool. The fact it is agentless, can be deployed in AWS, Azure, and GCP make it an all around tool. Another reason I like Orca is the support I have gotten. The team is always available when we have issues and is able to resolve anything we see quickly.
> 
> **Cons**: I have no cons on this product. It works as intended.

### "Orca is a great product" — 4.0/5

> **Jon** | *19 February 2021* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I liked the side scanning technology availab.e
> 
> **Cons**: The price was super high for a new to market tool.
> 
> It was a great experience.

### "Best in class, but expensive" — 5.0/5

> **Brenden** | *10 June 2024* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Orca has the complete package of security tooling available. If cybersecurity is a very important concern for your company, this is the best choice.
> 
> **Cons**: While a complete package, they are very expensive. If you don't need all features other competitors might be more valuable for the money.

### "Probably the best Cloud Native Application Protection Platform I've used" — 5.0/5

> **Simon** | *23 May 2022* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Orca's agentless side-scanning techniques mean that all assets are automatically scanned - even if not running. Their dashboards provide an intuitive, easy to digest view of the current state of application security without being swamped by alerts and information. Orca provides an excellent way of producing an inventory of assets - particularly useful for ephemeral assets that are perpetually being created and destroyed. The compliance feature is also useful for auditing purposes. The recently introduced attack paths feature shows graphically how an attacker could gain access and potentially pivot through the system.
> 
> **Cons**: Because of the way Orca's side-scanning technology works using snapshots, the downside is that the scanning is not performed in real-time so cannot provide true xDR capabilities. It would also be useful if older alerts were automatically dismissed after a while when the vulnerability is no longer detected. This would help to reduce the total number of vulnerabilities and alerts that are displayed in the dashboards.
> 
> Orca solves several problems we regularly face including producing asset inventories, helping with compliance, and providing focussed mitigation of security vulnerabilities. Orca's dashboards provide the necessary insights into the latest threats to allow a more focused application of security resources.
