Tokyo Institute of Technology protects 400 websites with Imperva WAF and reduces security workload

The Tokyo Institute of Technology, Japan's leading science and technology university, faced the challenge of protecting its on-campus hosting service, which operated approximately 400 websites, from ongoing cyber attacks. With limited dedicated security staff, the university needed a best-in-breed solution that was easy to deploy and manage. They selected Imperva's Web Application Firewall (WAF) Gateway to secure their web content.

By implementing Imperva's WAF Gateway, the university gained detailed threat alerts and superior prioritization of incidents, which greatly enhanced operational efficiency. The solution automatically blocked major attacks, and the IT team's workload was significantly reduced as they could now focus on more urgent issues. Imperva's solution proved highly accurate and easy to operate, with only a minimal number of manual interventions required over an eight-year period.
