Case Study: The Pokémon Company achieves faster, automated incident response with Palo Alto Networks Cortex XSOAR

Automation and Orchestration Give InfoSec an Edge Against Attackers

The Pokémon Company International, a global entertainment company serving hundreds of millions of customers through games and apps hosted on AWS, faced the challenge of securing a growing, complex ecosystem—protecting corporate IT, cloud resources, and third‑party integrations—while responding quickly to incidents like phishing and credential theft with a small, lean InfoSec team.

To meet that need the team deployed Palo Alto Networks Cortex XSOAR to automate and orchestrate incident response across cloud and on‑premises systems. Automated playbooks and centralized correlation of AWS, Active Directory, SaaS, firewall, and SIEM data cut detection-to-remediation time, delivered instantaneous responses and better end‑user notifications, freed analysts for higher‑value work, and improved security posture while enabling DevOps productivity.
