Case Study: Boyne Resorts achieves game-changing SOC visibility and 98% faster incident response with Palo Alto Networks Cortex XSIAM and Unit 42 MDR

Boyne Resorts achieves game-changing SOC improvements with Cortex XSIAM and Unit 42 MDR

Boyne Resorts, a collection of 14 mountain, lakeside, and ski properties with over 11,000 employees, faced a legacy SIEM that ingested very little data, generated high false positives, and made source integration costly and time-consuming—leaving its central security team with poor visibility across a distributed environment and heavy alert fatigue.

By deploying Palo Alto Networks Cortex XSIAM and partnering with Unit 42 for MDR and a retainer, Boyne massively expanded telemetry (from 5 GB/day to 350 GB/day and 1 to 21 data sources), cut incidents from ~80–100 to 35 per day, reduced median time to resolution from days to 1.7 hours, consolidated tools, gained 24/7 SOC coverage, strong automation, best-in-class threat intelligence, and on-demand incident response.
