Organizations racing to adopt AI need robust solutions to secure their AI deployments—and industry recognition confirms that Orca Security is leading the way.
We’re proud to announce that the Orca Platform has been featured in CRN’s list of the 10 Hottest AI Security Tools of 2025, specifically for our industry leading AI Security Posture Management (AI-SPM) capabilities. This recognition validates our commitment to helping organizations confidently embrace AI innovation while maintaining comprehensive security across their cloud environments.
Why AI Security Matters Now More Than Ever
As AI adoption accelerates—with usage jumping from 56% of organizations in 2024 to 84% in 2025 according to Orca Research Pod data—security teams face unprecedented challenges. AI models introduce unique risks including data poisoning and unintended data exposure. Managing these risks alongside traditional cloud security concerns requires purpose-built solutions that understand both the cloud infrastructure and the AI models running within it.
AI-SPM with Orca: Comprehensive Visibility Meets Intelligent Protection
What sets the AI-SPM capabilities in the Orca Platform apart is our patented SideScanning™ technology, which provides complete visibility into AI models, providing the same risk insights and deep data that we provide on other cloud resources. Our platform gives a full visibility of AI Services and automatically detects your AI Bill of Materials (AI-BOM), covering over 50 AI models and software packages from OpenAI, Google, Anthropic, and more.
Orca ensures that AI models are configured securely, validates proper network security and access controls, identifies when models or training data contain sensitive information, and detects exposed API keys and tokens in code repositories. This comprehensive approach means organizations can adopt AI tools confidently while maintaining the same rigorous security standards they apply to their entire tech stack.
A Holistic Approach to Cloud and AI Security
Being recognized among CRN’s hottest AI security tools is particularly meaningful because it highlights how Orca seamlessly integrates AI security into our broader Cloud-Native Application Protection Platform (CNAPP). Organizations don’t need to deploy separate point solutions for AI security—Orca’s unified platform provides full-stack visibility across VMs, containers, databases, serverless applications, and now AI models, all from a single console.This recognition from CRN joins other recent accolades, including being named to the first-ever CRN AI 100 list and recognized as a Leader in the 2025 GigaOm Radar Report for CNAPP. These honors reflect our ongoing commitment to innovation in cloud security and our deep investment in AI security capabilities.
