Cloud 100 newcomer Orca Security sells security software that helps customers secure their cloud-based operations. It was founded by Avi Shua, the former chief technologist of cybersecurity company Check Point Software, along with seven of his senior architects. In March 2023, Shua passed the CEO baton to cofounder Gil Geron. The company has since made headlines for a July lawsuit against rival company Wiz (No. 15 on Cloud 100) over allegations including copyright infringement. Founded in 2019, the Portland, Oregon-based company has raised $650 million in funding and a $1.8 billion valuation. Its client list tripled in the past year and now includes Unity, Gannett, and SAP.
