SideScanning from Orca Security
Orca Security has revolutionized cloud security with its SideScanning technology. Unlike traditional methods that require installing software on servers, SideScanning is a simple, non-invasive approach. Users just need to give Orca Security access to their cloud environment through the API, and that's it. Many big names like Autodesk, Unity, Postman, Lemonade, and others are already using the Orca Platfrom because it's so effective.
In Poland, On The Spot Development serves as Orca's local representative, helping them build and grow the startup's R&D teams.

Leveling Up: Orca Security starts working on its new sensor
The company is about to develop a sensor designed for monitoring infrastructure security, equipped with advanced capabilities.
The new sensor will provide immediate notifications about vulnerabilities and respond to them adequately. This functionality operates at the Linux kernel level, utilizing eBPF technology for secure performance.
The new sensor will integrate with SideScanning technology and become part of the comprehensive solution by Orca Security.
"Many of Orca’s customers have been waiting for this new sensor. They plan to use it to secure some parts of their cloud infrastructure, while still using SideScanning for other parts," Anton adds.
