Orca Security Drives Hypergrowth in India with Partner-First Strategy and AI-Driven Demand for Comprehensive Cloud Security
Orca Security, the pioneer of agentless cloud security, today announced 100% year-over-year customer growth and expansion of its partner base in India. Fueled by AI-driven demand for a comprehensive, integrated cloud security platform, Orca has experienced 500% customer growth since opening its data center in 2023 and grew its team to dozens of employees across the major cities in India. Its hypergrowth in India illustrates the company’s accelerating presence across the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region and in more than 20 countries around the globe.
According to Grand View Research, the India cloud computing market's compound annual growth rate (CAGR) is projected to be 16.9% from 2024 to 2030, reaching nearly $5B in revenue. Orca Security’s expansion in the market has been fueled by its dozens of fully certified partners, including NTT, and a new partnership with Noventiq India, the largest Microsoft partner in the region.
Adding the Orca Cloud Security Platform to Noventiq’s portfolio is key to its strategic focus of migrating over 1,000 customers to the cloud in the next two years. As such, Orca will be a core piece of Noventiq’s Cloud Center of Excellence, which will provide unparalleled coverage of cloud workloads, AI models, configurations, and identities. This will enable its clients to thrive securely in the cloud and ensure their digital assets are continuously protected.
“CISOs and CEOs in organizations across India face competing pressures of moving to the cloud securely while prioritizing their organizations’ cyber risks and meeting a growing number of compliance frameworks,” said Gil Geron, CEO and co-founder at Orca Security. “Orca Security’s approach is built on a vision for making cloud security easy for everyone. We are pleased to work closely with key partners in India like Noventiq to provide the industry’s most comprehensive cloud security solution with the widest and deepest risk visibility.”
Orca Security is the industry-leading agentless cloud security platform that identifies, prioritizes, and remediates risks and compliance issues across organizations’ cloud estates spanning AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, Alibaba Cloud, and Kubernetes. Instead of layering multiple siloed tools together or deploying cumbersome agents, Orca delivers complete cloud security in a single platform by combining two revolutionary approaches: SideScanning, which enables frictionless and complete coverage without the need to maintain agents, and a Unified Data Model, which allows for centralized contextual analysis of the entire cloud estate. This enables easy compliance with Indian regulations, including the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) Cyber Security Framework and the Security and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) Cyber Security Framework.
"In our industry, staying ahead of the competition requires an unwavering focus on innovation,” said Ameya Sathye, Head Of Cyber Security at IIFL Group. “Our cloud-native technology stack is central to our strategy, making it essential to have complete visibility and 100% coverage of cloud accounts, with prioritized issue remediation – all without disrupting DevOps or the production environment. The Orca Cloud Security Platform achieves this while helping us meet compliance requirements and showcase controls to our auditors."
“As an ever-increasing number of enterprises in India move to the cloud as their foundational infrastructure, they rely on trusted partners to guide their journey,” said Ajesh Pillai, Business Head, Cybersecurity at Noventiq India. “Our partnership with Orca Security deepens our capabilities to consult, architect and implement the most robust cloud security measures for businesses. The Orca platform’s agentless approach brings unmatched time-to-value and meets the scalability demands of our customers. We look forward to a long, successful partnership.”
