10 Fastest Growing Cyber Security Companies 2017
A Leader in Cyber Security, Imperva Protects Cloud Applications, Websites, Web Applications, Critical Databases, Files and Big Data Repositories Wherever You Deploy Them
The Silicon Review
“We Protect What Matters Most”
Cybercriminals constantly change their tactics. But what they are after, and how they ultimately make money, doesn’t change. They are after data. They make their money through extortion, via DDoS and ransomware, and through theft via data breaches. Today, data and applications are the fundamental assets of any enterprise. Data are the intellectual property and apps are what run the business. Imperva has a singular purpose: protect these critical assets from the ever-changing attacks of the cybercrime industry.
