Case Study: Wizards of the Coast achieves frictionless, agentless security and faster development with ExtraHop Reveal(x) Cloud

Wizards of the Coast Delivers Frictionless Security for Agile Game Development with ExtraHop

Wizards of the Coast, the studio behind Dungeons & Dragons and Magic: The Gathering, moved its gaming platforms to AWS and needed to release features multiple times a day without security slowing development. Their prior agent-based visibility was complex, costly, and created bottlenecks that forced developers to justify changes and slowed delivery.

They adopted ExtraHop Reveal(x) Cloud, a SaaS network detection and response solution that uses VPC Traffic Mirroring to provide agentless, packet-level visibility across AWS workloads. The platform let security teams detect and investigate threats in dynamic, Kubernetes-driven environments without impeding developers, accelerating release timelines, reducing tool sprawl, and cutting costs so more budget could be invested in product features.
