Imperva Web Application Firewall Reviews Summary
Author infoRatingReview Summary
Principal Cyber Prevent and Defense Engineer at a comms service provider with 1,001-5,000 employees4.0Our primary use of Imperva Web Application Firewall is to protect against application-layer attacks, with valuable features like ease of implementation and effective threat mitigation. However, the customer support and pricing structure need improvement. We are also considering alternatives like Cloudflare.
Large account Manager at Softcell Technologies Limited4.0No summary available
Senior Technical Consultant- Cyber Security at Ivalue Infosolution4.5I use the Imperva Web Application Firewall to secure our web application by filtering traffic and blocking malicious activities such as cross-site scripting and SQL injection. Although it occasionally produces false positives, it offers significant ROI for critical sectors like banking.
Technical Consultant - Presales at a tech services company with 51-200 employees4.5I manage Imperva Web Application Firewall, focusing on OWASP Top 10 and bot attacks. It's easy to deploy and manage, though costly. It provides quick ROI and superior DDoS mitigation compared to solutions like Akamai and Cloudflare.
Security Consultant at a university with 1,001-5,000 employees4.5As a premier partner with Imperva, I recommend their Web Application Firewall due to its effective security and responsive support. However, it requires backend customization and better handling of high traffic volumes, with attention needed for potential false alerts.
Manager, Information Technology Network Security at a financial services firm with 201-500 employees4.5We use Imperva Web Application Firewall to protect our hosted web applications. It's user-friendly, secure, and highly customizable. However, I would like AI integrations for administration and analytics. We hadn't used any WAF products before considering F5.
Technical Consultant at Truvisor4.0No summary available
Director, Information System Security at a financial services firm with 201-500 employees4.5At my previous job in banking, we used Imperva WAF on-premises to monitor internet banking traffic. Its comprehensive features were valuable, though expensive locally. Vendor support was decent but slow, and recent management separation required additional investment.
