For web application firewalls we are actually currently using more than one solution. We are using both Imperva and AWS. Which solution that we use depends upon the environment and depends on the situation. So we are using both solutions but for different situations when there is an advantage to using the capabilities of one product over the other.

We used Akamai previously, but due to full PCI DSS compliance, we needed a proprietary solution for two-factor authentication. We then switched to Incapsula.

We previously used Cloudflare. Although a very good solution, it forces users to completely give up the DNS management of their domain, which most enterprises don’t want to do. Incapsula only needs a redirection of the actual web entry.

We are using our own firewall with the web application services. We used our own firewall before implementing with Incapsula, but we are also implementing it now under Incapsula cloud solutions.

We moved from CloudFlare because Incapsula’s minification was faultless, and their CNAME installation procedure avoided downtime for other services such as email.

Yes, we used Barracuda. The product was not difficult to configure but it didn’t work well. There was high latency in the product.

We had used many local, and some cloud-based solutions (like Azure, Advanced Nagios, Centreon). We switched for the scalability of the solution, the reporting features it has, as well as the availability to fine tune the solution.

No, as we are a fairly new project so we have no other experience with another solution. However, we did look at CloudFlare, Limelight, and CDN networks.

I had a gut feeling about the product right from the get-go.
