Imperva Cloud WAF

Imperva WAF (incorporating both Imperva SecureSphere WAF appliances and Cloud WAF) is an enterprise web application firewall engineered to protect business-critical web applications from cyber attacks, unauthorized data access, and application-layer vulnerabilities. Recognized globally for robust threat detection and precision policy enforcement, Imperva WAF analyzes bidirectional HTTP/HTTPS traffic to block SQL injection, cross-site scripting (XSS), remote file inclusion, and zero-day vulnerabilities before they compromise web infrastructure.

The solution utilizes patented Dynamic Profiling technology, which automatically learns normal application usage patterns and user behaviors to establish precise security baselines without requiring manual rule configuration. Key technical features include automated OWASP Top 10 mitigation, virtual patching capabilities that neutralize discovered vulnerabilities without updating code, custom security rules, granular SSL/TLS decryption and inspection, and real-time security alerting. Whether deployed as high-throughput on-premises physical hardware, virtual appliances in private clouds, or cloud SaaS, Imperva WAF delivers consistent, enterprise-grade application security.

Imperva WAF integrates with enterprise SIEM solutions, vulnerability scanners, and identity management platforms. Primary enterprise use cases include shielding core enterprise ERP and CRM web interfaces, protecting citizen-facing government portals, ensuring strict adherence to PCI-DSS requirement 6.6, and providing immediate virtual patching during critical zero-day disclosures. Imperva WAF delivers proven threat mitigation efficacy, architectural flexibility, and trusted application protection.
