Imperva Secure CDN

Thales Group (Imperva)

IT Security & Risk Management Associate

We've been using Imperva Secure CDN for a while now and it's been working great. DDoS protection, WAF and bot management all handle what we need without requiring constant tweaking. Content delivery is fast and reliable. Compared to other CDN solutions we've tested,  Imperva gives us way more flexibility in how we build and customize security policies. It integrates well with our existing security stack and hasn't caused any major headaches.

Overall positive experience. Reliable CDN with a strong security suite built in. Performed well under load and helped reduce latency for global users while maintaining consistent availability.

IT Manager

We are using Imperva as part of our application delivery and security layer, acting as a reverse proxy in front of multiple web services. In our environment it handles traffic for around 30 prod and 9 test applications . From a delivery perspective, it provides stable request handling, traffic inspection and consistent access to backend services. In day to day operations the load on the applications is not so much, but during campaigns and when there is an issue it could it rise a lot. The platform is also reliable during these peaks. Once familiar with the interface, it becomes intuitive to operate and manage.
