Case Study: TechSoup Global strengthens application security and PCI compliance with Imperva SecureSphere

TechSoup Global reduces PCI compliance effort and recovers from a 2-day SQL injection downtime with Imperva

TechSoup Global, a nonprofit organization that provides technology resources to other nonprofits, faced a significant security challenge. After an unsuccessful SQL injection attack forced two days of system downtime, they needed a robust application security solution to protect sensitive donor credit card data and meet PCI compliance requirements. They selected Imperva's SecureSphere Web Application Firewall to address this challenge.

The implementation of Imperva's SecureSphere provided TechSoup with total operational visibility and protection against sophisticated attacks like SQL injection without requiring changes to their applications. The solution's flexible deployment and easy-to-use interface helped them achieve PCI compliance more simply. As a result, TechSoup gained a much higher level of comfort and trust, knowing their applications and sensitive data were secure.
