HALCROW + ORCA

Orca, surfacing what matters in cloud security

We help teams get real value from Orca—eliminating alert noise, prioritising risk by context, and giving security and engineering a shared view of what’s worth fixing.

Common misconceptions

The difference between using it and using it well

It’s not about finding all the security risks—it’s about knowing what to fix first.

How teams normally use it

Drown in alerts without a system to sort by impact

Run Orca without clear owners, so findings go nowhere

Ignore integrations—then rely on PDFs instead of dashboards

This is how Halcrow does Orca

We don’t just “turn it on.” We help teams operationalise Orca—so cloud security becomes part of how things ship.

We embed with SecOps and platform teams to design ownership

We tailor rulesets to reduce noise and prioritise based on risk

We integrate Orca into engineering workflows—Slack, Jira, GitHub

We map findings to real business assets, not just IP addresses

We support reporting for leadership, not just compliance

We track remediation over time and set up clear accountability
