GuidePoint Enlists Orca in Fed Cyber

GuidePoint Security has announced the inclusion of Orca Security in its Emerging Cyber Vendor Program, aiming to bolster federal cybersecurity capabilities. This collaboration grants Orca Security access to GuidePoint's extensive federal expertise, spanning sales, marketing, operations, engineering, and procurement, facilitating the expansion of its presence within federal agencies.

The partnership responds to the escalating importance of cloud security within federal organizations, particularly amid the Zero Trust paradigm shift. Jim Quarantillo, Federal Partner at GuidePoint Security, emphasized the necessity for agencies to monitor security compliance and mitigate risks associated with cloud deployments, often managed by third-party entities such as FSIs or application development teams.

Orca Security's agentless-first, AI-powered Orca Cloud Security Platform offers centralized risk coverage and visibility across cloud environments. Notably, its rapid deployment capabilities, requiring no agent installation, enable swift defense against misconfigurations, vulnerabilities, identity risks, data security lapses, API exposure, and advanced threats. With its FedRAMP ‘In-Process’ status and listing on the FedRAMP Marketplace, the Orca Platform is poised to address federal security requirements comprehensively, aligning with evolving regulatory frameworks and organizational needs.
