Organizations Gain Choice in How They Enable and Scale Cloud Security Through Three Options for Scanning Cloud Assets, Data, and Workloads: SaaS, In-Account, and Bring Your Own Cloud (BYOC) Modes

PORTLAND, Ore.: Orca Security, the pioneer of agentless cloud security, today unveiled new, flexible deployment models that combine the highest levels of privacy and cloud security with cost savings for customers. Organizations now have the choice of scanning cloud assets, data and workloads in SaaS, In-Account or Bring Your Own Cloud (BYOC) Mode, giving them the most choice for enabling and scaling cloud security of any platform on the market.

As organizations store an ever-expanding volume of valuable data in the cloud, including personal and “crown jewel” data, they face more regulatory and privacy concerns over how it is handled. The rapid adoption of AI and responsible use of data to train large language models adds further pressure on privacy practices and costs. By offering customers multiple options, Orca ensures that any type of organization can secure their cloud properly based on their unique needs.

“We know that organizations have a range of security and privacy requirements within their cloud estates and look for flexibility in solution deployments,” said Gil Geron, CEO and co-founder, Orca Security. “Simply put, today’s announcement reflects Orca’s obsession with enabling our customers to secure their cloud their way. Our commitment to data privacy and security permeates every part of our business, which includes giving our customers ultimate control of the data scanned by the Orca Platform in the most cost-effective manner.”

As organizations scale in the cloud, cost efficiency is vital. With the following deployment options, organizations can ensure they can optimize their cloud spend while not compromising on privacy and security.

• SaaS Mode: Through this deployment model, the platform backend and scanning runs in Orca Security cloud accounts. This mode is used by most organizations to deploy and scale easily.
• In-Account Mode: For organizations to achieve a higher level of security and keep data within their environment, they can choose to only have the metadata processed in Orca Security cloud accounts, while scanning runs in the customer’s cloud accounts.
• Bring Your Own Cloud Mode: In this model, the backend and scanning run in the organization’s cloud accounts, meaning no data or metadata ever leaves the environment. This achieves the highest level of data security for government and large enterprises.

The new Orca Security Cloud Platform deployment options are available immediately. To learn more, read the blog, or sign up for a demo to assess the different deployment options available from Orca.
