Case Study: Palo Alto Networks accelerates secure software development with Claude and Google Cloud

Palo Alto Networks accelerates secure software development with Claude and Google Cloud

Palo Alto Networks, the world's largest cybersecurity company, faced the challenge of accelerating its secure software development to stay ahead of competitors and cyber threats. They sought a generative AI solution that could enhance developer productivity without compromising their stringent security standards, focusing on the initial development phase where the most critical issues and time investments occurred.

The company implemented Claude on Google Cloud's Vertex AI, leveraging different Claude models for specific tasks like real-time code completion and complex code generation. This solution from Claude enabled a 20-30% increase in feature development velocity, reduced new developer onboarding time from months to weeks, and successfully onboarded 2,500 developers with plans to scale to 3,500.
