IMPERVA WELCOMES ALASTAIR CORBETT AS NEW REGIONAL VICE PRESIDENT OF EMEA
Former EMEA Lead, Dave Woodcock, Now Regional Vice President of Asia-Pacific

REDWOOD SHORES, Calif., March 17, 2015 – Imperva Inc. (NYSE: IMPV), committed to protecting business-critical data and applications in the cloud and on-premises, today announced the appointment of Alastair Corbett to the role of Regional Vice President of EMEA. Based in the United Kingdom, Corbett will have oversight of the Imperva business across Europe as well as the Middle East and Africa. Imperva also announced that its former Regional Vice President of EMEA, Dave Woodcock, has stepped into the same role in Asia-Pacific, where he will drive the Imperva business in that region from the company’s Singapore office.  Both executives will report to Imperva Chief Revenue Officer, Mike Mooney, and will be responsible for driving the revenue and sales of the Imperva SecureSphere, Imperva Incapsula, and Imperva Skyfence product lines in their respective regions of the world.

Alastair Corbett joins Imperva from HP Software where in a ten-year career he held a number of senior roles both at a regional and global level before being appointed to lead the UK Software business in 2012.  As VP and General Manager for HP Software in the UK and Ireland, he was responsible for the transformation and successful return to growth for this business.  Prior to joining HP, Alastair has held significant roles with Peregrine Software, Hypercom International, AvantGo and Sterling Software. 

Dave Woodcock joined Imperva in May 2013 as Vice President of EMEA Sales, where he grew the business significantly, and was instrumental in closing strategic deals at Lloyds Banking Group, Swedbank and Credit Suisse before moving to Singapore. Prior to Imperva, Dave was with Crossbeam Systems Inc., where he started in 2007 as Vice President, EMEA, and then in 2011 became Vice President for EMEA and APAC.  In this role, Dave built a world-class direct and channel sales team focused on the Fortune 2000 and was responsible for over 50 percent of the company’s revenue.  Before joining Crossbeam Systems, Dave was Group Chief Commercial Officer and Main Board Member for Computer software Group Plc. (CSGroup); Managing Director of Northern and Central Europe for Ascential Software (an IBM company since May 2005); and Regional Director of Northern Europe for Vitria Technologies.  Earlier in his career, Dave was Vice President at Parametric Technology Corporation (PTC), and was Global Account Director for AspenTech.  He has lived and worked in Singapore previously.

“Protecting data and applications is fast becoming one of the most important priorities of CISOs and CIOs within the Global 5,000,” said Mike Mooney, Chief Revenue Officer for Imperva. “Serving the cyber security needs of the Global 5,000, however, requires a deep understanding of the scale of their operations and their geographic reach. With his years of experience at HP Software serving the needs of large enterprises in EMEA, Alastair is the ideal leader to ensure Imperva can reach and support this region of world with our solutions for discovery, protection and compliance.  We’re delighted to welcome him on board and are pleased with the addition of senior management experience to help lead Imperva in its next stage of growth.
