"The solution is very good at intercepting traffic before it gets to our data centers."
"Incapsula takes care of the CDN infrastructure and bandwidth volume, providing several enterprise "load balancing" features."
"On the activity log, I can see the exact details, the visit, and the threat."
"On the site security, I can see which countries have incidents, whether it was a robot attack, a real human user, or non-human user."
"This product is a reliable defense from malicious attacks on a network environment."
"Imperva Incapsula has many valuable features. One, it protects the top 10 OWAS vulnerability, the open web application software platform, this is standard. Secondly, it protects against broken authentication. As well, it has remote execution of code."
"On the real time, you can see live traffic, which is flowing into our website."
"We use it for database security, vulnerability analysis, discovery, and handling requests from applications and users."
"The company focuses on and has a passion for security."
"A solution which does what other name brand products do for a lower cost."
"The most valuable feature is the automatic reports on new databases, which gives us up-to-date inventory management."
"The audit feature is great. It is totally encrypted."
"There are three major main use cases of this solution. The first one is to fulfill compliance regulations. Customers—especially the banks, health sector, and manufacturing—need to comply with the regulations in different countries. They have to fulfill compliance regulations around the privacy of data. In order to fulfill those requirements, they're using Imperva. It helps them to fulfill these requirements, and they are not fined by the regulators. That is the first use case why people buy Imperva."
"The beauty of it is that it provides segregation of duties. Typically, in the traditional environment, DBAs administer the database, and they have too much access. We are in the process of implementing other Oracle solutions, and it brings some kind of segregation. Just because someone is a DBA does not mean that he or she should have access to all of the data. Some of the data can be masked so that privacy and security are enhanced, especially when it is customer data for an institution like a bank."
"The integration is great."
"I would like to see automated reporting to improve visibility."
"Analytics in the area of risk need to be improved to supply more information to the users for creating better environments."

"Certificate management could be improved."
"We had an issue when securing the web applications for DDoS protection."
"Imperva now offers add-ons to add functionality, but I would like to see these included in the product, even if it would cost more."
"Technical support for this solution needs improvement."
"Database security from the access management perspective could be better."
"The GUI for this solution could use some improvement."
"The firewall features are not very strong and should be improved."
"Sometimes the reports are cumbersome, and you have to drill down to get more information."
"SecureSphere activity log can be used with Imperva CounterBreach in an effort to protect enterprise data from theft and loss caused."
"The solution could improve by having more integration."
"It would be better to update the solution by using a GUI that guides me, rather than through a CLI."
