a major European-based energy company blocks 22.5 million malicious requests with Imperva

a major european-based energy company faced sophisticated account takeover attacks that bypassed their traditional security measures. These credential-stuffing attacks, involving millions of malicious requests, overloaded their infrastructure and risked compromising customer access to their websites and mobile apps. They turned to Imperva for a solution.

Imperva implemented its Account Takeover Protection solution, which was seamlessly integrated with their existing Imperva Cloud WAF. The solution successfully mitigated attacks in real-time, including one consisting of 22.5 million requests over three days, blocking a peak of 75,000 malicious requests in just five minutes with zero false positives. This allowed Imperva to safeguard the customer experience and preserve infrastructure resources for the energy company.
