Achieve PCI Compliance

If your Website processes payment cards, PCI 6.6 requires that you must either install a Web Application Firewall or review all Web applications annually and after all application changes. Imperva Cloud WAF provides continuous protection and helps you maintain PCI compliance in an affordable way.

Avoid Search Engine Blacklisting

Many legitimate Websites are added to the malware blacklists of security software firms, search engines, and browser makers due to application vulnerabilities. As a result, customers and partners may find their access to your Website blocked and your business effectively shut down. Imperva Cloud WAF enables you to close vulnerability gaps in your applications to avoid blacklisting and ensure your Website is always accessible.
