A great All-In-One and easy to set solution to start addressing Cloud security.

  • May 25, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The SaaS version of the product is easy to set up and provides a great single pane of glass consolidated overview of multiple Public Cloud environments.
Orca's prioritization engine based on vulnerability exposure is particularly relevant for younger and less-cyber mature organizations.
A very flexible query language with automation capabilities.
The pricing model is reasonable.
The customer success team is very attentive to our needs and feedback.
A product which is constantly evolving the current platform is already much more advanced and feature-rich than when we started using it a year ago.
What do you dislike about the product?
Orca's agentless technology provides less visibility on systems' activity such as applications loaded in memory.
Monitoring for Kubernetes and Docker vulnerabilities and misconfigurations could be more developed.
The solution is not as mature on GCP as AWS, they usually start rolling new dashboards and detection rules for AWS and it eventually gets adapted to the other Cloud providers.
As of today lack of a customer community or advisory board.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Gaining visibility into our live running Infrastructure and detecting vulnerable components that could lead the path to a cyber attack.
We didn't have any vulnerability management capabilities a year ago, Orca served as one of our stepping stones to prioritize and start mitigating.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
After having tested many different solutions, I consider Orca as the most adapted for mid-size/scale-up businesses with a small security team and a limited budget.

If you subscribe to the product I would suggest relaying demands to your customer success manager for a customer community. I deem Orca will set up a Slack channel and website+events with their customers at some point but right now that's missing to exchange use cases.

Orca, Security in the cloud

  • May 23, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Ease of installation, scanning of containers, security logging (such as brute force attempts), no need to have local account on images. Also how fast they are to listen to customer suggestions, turning them to feature requests, and implementing these.
What do you dislike about the product?
Early on the reporting was a bit weak, as was the SIEM intergration. Due to the support and feature requests, this was resolved pretty early on. The issues really are minor at this point.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Vulnerability Management was the key item we needed to solve. The ability to assess overall cloud security, auditing, and other features were just great additions.

Orca Security is building a really nice tool

  • May 23, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The interface is good but not as intuitive as I would expect from a tool like this but you can find what you need in a couple of clicks. Customer support from the other side is great.
What do you dislike about the product?
As mentioned, the interface is modern but not that intuitive. It is a bit hard to find information about a vulnerable package or file location for example in the web GUI.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With Orca Security we have a nice overview of vulnerable packages, end-of-live operational systems and so without installing extra agents or software on the servers or virtual machines.

Probably the best Cloud Native Application Protection Platform on the market

  • May 23, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
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.
What do you dislike about the product?
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.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
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.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Orca is a great product that can help with your organization's application security and governance.

Very quick implementation and great visibility.

  • May 20, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Their data posture has been a good update. Further attack path visibility is a great help.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not as much advancement in vulnerability validations as I would like to see but great product.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Configuration vulnerabilities is a primary business use. On three occasions, Orca identified malware that landed on a server. One occasion it was a completely exposed server that was spun up for weekend testing.

Orca Security Review - Cloud Scanning

  • May 19, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The ability for Orca to scan cloud compute instances without agents and Orca's constant updates, including cloud security posture management.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are a lot of sub-menus on the website, and it's hard to discover what you're looking for initially.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Scanning EC2 instances dynamically without the need for agents. Orca uses AWS account access to scan EC2 instances without agents.
