Case Study: PSCU detects and remediates malware with Imperva

PSCU uses Imperva to block malware and isolate sensitive data with real-time early warning

PSCU, a credit union service organization, faced significant threats from advanced malware and targeted attacks aimed at stealing sensitive financial data. To enhance its security posture beyond perimeter defense, PSCU sought a data-centric solution. The company selected Imperva's Database Firewall and SecureSphere to audit all access to sensitive information in real-time and protect its data center assets.

By integrating Imperva Data Security with the FireEye Malware Protection System, PSCU created an automated early warning and response system. When FireEye detects a compromised device, it feeds that information to Imperva, which then blocks that device from accessing any sensitive data. This Imperva solution significantly reduced security risk by preventing malware from reaching critical databases, while also minimizing disruptions to ongoing operations and providing a detailed audit trail for forensic investigations.
