Case Study: Digital Media and Gaming Company protects cloud apps on AWS and cuts costs with Imperva SecureSphere WAF

Digital Media and Gaming Company deploys Imperva WAF in 3 days to block SQL injection attacks

A digital media and gaming company faced the challenge of securing its cloud-based e-commerce and authentication applications on Amazon Web Services (AWS) ahead of a major product launch. They needed enterprise-class security to protect against web attacks, data theft, and fraud in a public cloud environment without the time or budget to upgrade their own physical data centers. They turned to Imperva and implemented its SecureSphere Web Application Firewall (WAF) for AWS.

Imperva's solution provided immediate protection, blocking SQL injection attacks and automated bot attacks shortly after its three-day deployment. The WAF scaled seamlessly with their AWS infrastructure to handle a massive surge in holiday traffic. This allowed the company to successfully launch its product on time, saving significant time and money by avoiding capital expenses on hardware and data centers while ensuring a secure, seamless experience for its users.
