Case Study: WMPH Vacations achieves elimination of scraping, spam & SQL injection, 40% faster site and 100% more leads with Imperva

WMPH Vacations stops web scraping, form spam, and SQL injection attempts

WMPH Vacations, a travel company operating 30 websites and a popular cruise-planning app, was facing persistent attacks from bad bots: aggressive price scraping, form spam, unauthorized scans, and near‑constant SQL injection attempts that slowed sites and polluted backend systems. Manual IP blocking and CAPTCHAs proved ineffective and time-consuming, and the team needed a solution that would stop malicious bots without blocking users or good crawlers like Google.

WMPH deployed Imperva Secure CDN with Bot Management, which immediately identified and stopped large-scale scrapers and filtered attacks before they hit the code. The result: site response times improved by 40%, zero SQL injection attempts in the logs, leads increased 100% year‑over‑year, form conversions rose 22% after removing CAPTCHAs for real users, and the company regained partner confidence and operational peace of mind.
