Case Study: Banco Popular Dominicano achieves streamlined operations, improved productivity, and lowered costs with Imperva

Switching to Imperva Database Security streamlined operations, improved productivity, and lowered costs

Banco Popular Dominicano, the country’s largest privately owned bank with over 200 branches, 700 ATMs and one of the most visited internet banking platforms, faced a complex, consolidated database environment on shared servers that strained performance and scalability. Their incumbent database security solution was resource‑intensive, slow to operate, and risked disrupting production, so the bank needed a cost‑effective platform that would secure databases without adding hardware, staff, or downtime.

After proof‑of‑concept and pilot testing with integrator Multicomputos, BPD selected Imperva SecureSphere for continuous data and account activity monitoring. The solution was implemented in two weeks, met production goals without impacting performance, improved productivity and detail in monitoring, and reduced operational costs—delivering a seamless transition and positive feedback from stakeholders.
