Orca Security, founded last year by a group of former Check Point executives and architects, announced a $20 million Series A funding round led by GGV Capital with participation from YL Ventures and SVCI. The funding will fuel additional company growth to help more worldwide customers gain deeper visibility into AWS, Azure, and GCP at a fraction of the time and operational cost of alternative solutions.

Since its inception, Orca Security has been on an explosive path to solve a fundamental challenge-to provide frictionless cloud security with the breadth and depth to quickly analyze all cloud assets for risks.

"You can't continue to iterate on tools designed for on-prem environments and expect to win the coverage game in the cloud. You lose both agility and security. Orca Security has developed an entirely new way of helping organizations identify, understand, and prioritize cloud security issues-without slowing their innovation or worrying about the thoroughness of their coverage."

"In contrast, Orca Security provides a comprehensive security perspective that doesn't require material changes to the cloud environment, but still identifies all issues across the entire stack - OS, applications, and services."

"In a software-driven world that is moving faster than ever before, it's extremely difficult for security teams to properly discover and protect every cloud asset. Orca Security's novel approach provides unparalleled visibility into these assets, and brings this power back to the CISO without slowing down engineering." - Glenn Solomon, Managing Partner GGV Capital, Orca Security Board Member.
