Case Study: Square Enix achieves runtime visibility and stronger gaming platform security with Sysdig

Square Enix gains continuous runtime visibility with Sysdig across millions of players

Square Enix, a global video game developer, needed better runtime visibility and security for its containerized gaming platforms running on Google Kubernetes Engine. Their SRE team faced challenges with manual investigations, unclear security risks, and the need to maintain stability during unpredictable traffic surges without slowing development.

Sysdig provided runtime visibility across Square Enix's container and Kubernetes workloads. This solution enabled faster, evidence-based investigations and gave developers earlier visibility into application vulnerabilities. The implementation resulted in continuous runtime visibility, actionable pre-production insights, and consistent team investigations, supporting both security and development velocity at scale.
