Orchid Security

Orchid Security operates in the identity and access management (IAM) sector, providing a platform that offers continuous visibility and control over enterprise IAM environments. The company addresses the challenges faced by enterprises in managing and securing their identity governance, single sign-on (SSO), and multi-factor authentication (MFA) controls. By leveraging Orchid's technology, businesses can automatically extract IAM controls for each application, filling a traditional blind spot in security and compliance. This capability is crucial for organizations that integrate numerous applications with varying security and compliance levels, such as HUB International, which has integrated 200 new acquisitions. Orchid Security's business model revolves around offering a comprehensive solution that supports the latest IAM functionalities, helping enterprises maintain compliance with evolving regulations, frameworks, and industry standards. The company generates revenue by providing its platform to enterprises seeking to enhance their IAM security posture. Backed by investors like Team8, Intel Capital, and Jeff Williams, Orchid Security has raised $36 million in seed funding to accelerate platform development, expand sales and support teams, and enhance its marketing efforts. The company primarily serves large enterprises with complex identity environments, aiming to streamline identity workflow agility and reduce the costs associated with IAM management.
