FOSTER CITY, CA – August 18, 2005 – Imperva, the leader in integrated database and web application security, welcomes Protegrity to the data layer security market with it’s acquisition of Kavado. Imperva already has over 50 customers who are enjoying the benefits of seamless data layer security by deploying the SecureSphere Dynamic Profiling Firewall , a solution that was designed from the ground up to provide unified protection of web applications, web services, and all major databases.
Over 50 leading financial services, healthcare, and retail organizations around the globe have already embraced Imperva’s gigabit solutions to protect their proprietary information, custom business applications and critical servers. This purchase is additional validation that customers prefer a single holistic solution, like Imperva SecureSphere, over multiple disparate point solutions from vendors like Protegrity and Kavado.
”FFF Enterprises relies on SecureSphere’s integrated security to protect the private information of our customers and partners from direct database attacks or indirect attacks through our web applications,” said Bob Coates, VP of Technology for FFF Enterprises. “SecureSphere delivers seamlessly integrated web application and database security that meets our exacting requirements for reliable security, ease of deployment and low operating costs.”
The SecureSphere Dynamic Profiling Firewall secures databases, web applications, and web services in an enterprise’s data centers. SecureSphere delivers low deployment and ongoing operational costs because SecureSphere deployment requires no changes to the data center’s existing infrastructure and SecureSphere operations requires no on-going manual tuning.
”Imperva was founded on a vision of unified data layer security because customers want to protect both their proprietary information and the web applications accessing that information.” said Shlomo Kramer, CEO of Imperva Inc. “Only a single solution that monitors both web and database traffic is capable of identifying and blocking the sophisticated attacks responsible for data leakage, identity theft, data theft, and phishing.”
