Case Study: Leading Electronic Medical Records Company achieves HIPAA-compliant 24/7 protection with Imperva Cloud WAF

Leading EMR Selects Imperva Cloud Application Security for Cloud WAF HIPAA Compliance and DDoS Protection

Leading Electronic Medical Records Company, a provider of EMR and practice management software, needed to protect its highly sensitive healthcare data while maintaining 24/7 availability and HIPAA compliance. Frequent large-scale attacks, data theft attempts, and site scraping were straining its IT team, creating an urgent need for stronger protection. Imperva Cloud WAF was used as part of the company’s security approach on Microsoft Azure.

Imperva implemented Imperva Cloud WAF for Azure and Imperva DDoS Protection, providing automatic blocking of intrusions, scraping bots, and DDoS traffic with real-time visibility and a 3-second mitigation SLA. The result was enhanced web security, maintained compliance, and reduced operational burden, enabling the company to improve internal development operations by 100% and cut patch and version release cycles from months to days or weeks.
