The Challenge
Legacy WAFs provided high operational costs and response times, especially during critical traffic spikes.
As the company continued to expand its offerings and provide great digital experiences for its customers, DeNA knew it needed to scale its web security posture to match. But their legacy hardware WAF was causing the team multiple issues and made it difficult to operate efficiently.
It was impossible for the DeNA team to reroute customer page requests if their WAF was not performing correctly.
The legacy WAF performance, combined with the high price of scaling hardware investments, made it clear to DeNA that they needed a new solution that can perform under pressure.

They were using independent software from different vendors for each of their department information and workforce management. This resulted in a lot of manual work on excel and the need to export/import data between different systems. This not only increased overhead costs but also slowed down their response to clients. The company also had to prepare numerous reports manually and lacked access to customer trends for effective business decision-making.
