Cloud risks, threats, and vulnerabilities are moving targets for busy security teams in 2022. As cloud migration and digital transformation initiatives are fast tracked after years of pandemic-related delays, security leaders need to modernize their security operations centers to handle increasing cloud security requirements.

At the same time, internal challenges – such as understaffing, budget cuts, and alert fatigue  have not gone away. Adversaries are attacking public clouds at an unprecedented rate while security teams are struggling with alert fatigue and manually handling cloud tasks that could be automated. Organizations need better strategies to manage today’s cloud security risks.

Lessons from the Trenches: What We Learned This Year to Get Cloud Security Right

Avi Shua, CEO & Co-Founder, Orca Security

In his 20 years of working in cybersecurity in both military and private sectors, Orca Security CEO Avi Shua brings a unique philosophy to cloud security: “I’m a big believer that secure tools should move from being right to being smart.” In 2019, Avi and Orca’s founders – including Gil Geron and Yoav Alon – invented an entirely new approach to cloud security that doesn’t rely on installing and maintaining agents or network scanning tools called SideScanning™. Understanding the cloud risk landscape and where legacy tools are falling short in the cloud, Avi’s vision keeps Orca’s innovation focused upon solving the most critical cloud security issues impacting organizations today.

In this first session, Avi will cover:

  • How organizations are navigating the complex cloud ecosystem and approaching security – touching on threats from the last year, including Log4J, the Confluence Security Advisory, and Orca Security Pod security advisories
  • How Orca’s invention of SideScanning™, the first agentless cloud security solution, continues to disrupt the cloud security industry with continuous innovation, precision performance, and technology integrations
  • The newest capabilities available within Orca’s cloud security platform

Paidy’s Journey to Full Cloud Security Visibility & Compliance

Jeremy Turner, Deputy CISO & Senior Cloud Security Engineer, Paidy, and Andy Ellis, Advisory CISO, Orca Security

Paidy is a Fintech leader that delivers online and mobile cardless payments and other financial services to consumers and businesses in Japan and was acquired by PayPal in 2021. As Deputy CISO and Senior Cloud Security Engineer, Jeremy Turner is responsible for Paidy’s cloud security program that manages secure payment transactions and data security requirements. Jeremy and Paidy selected Orca Security for near-instant multi-cloud visibility, which saves Paidy two FTEs and $500,000/year in cloud security management costs.

Jeremy notes the impact of Orca right away: “We have 12 AWS accounts. We didn’t know what’s in all of them, so we plugged them into Orca. Within 30 minutes we had a good idea of what was running in all accounts. We couldn’t have done that so quickly any other way.” 

In session two, hear how Jeremy and Paidy are gaining the advantage over attackers with the Orca cloud platform with Orca’s Advisory CISO, Andy Ellis:

  • How Paidy overcame challenges related to multi-cloud environments, costly in-house solutions, and compliance issues
  • How Paidy has optimized its overall cloud security posture
  • How the Orca solution improved merchant onboarding to drive revenue growth
