Case Study: a top ten global video game publisher stops account takeover bots with Netacea

a top ten global video game publisher stops 75 account takeover breaches with Netacea

The customer, a top ten global video game publisher, faced sophisticated account takeover bots that were successfully breaching user accounts to steal payment details and in-game assets. Despite having a Web Application Firewall and an in-house client-side security layer, they needed a frictionless solution to protect their new game launch. They turned to Netacea for its agentless bot management solution.

Netacea implemented its Intent Analytics engine, which used machine learning to profile visitors and identify malicious bot activity across web, mobile, and API endpoints. The solution flagged 2,655 malicious login attempts and identified 75 successful account breaches that had bypassed other defenses. Netacea’s team also uncovered a credential stuffing tool built specifically to target the client, mitigating potential financial and reputational damage during their critical launch.
