Imperva - integrated WAF solution

The integration of WhiteHat Sentinel and Imperva SecureSphere delivers a closed-loop process for identifying and immediately mitigating application vulnerabilities safely, quickly, and cost effectively. WhiteHat Sentinel assesses Web applications for vulnerabilities using the most accurate vulnerability assessment analysis available – verifying all results to virtually eliminate false positives. Imperva’s market-leading SecureSphere Web Application Firewall (WAF) pulls vulnerability scan results from WhiteHat Sentinel for rapid remediation. By importing the assessment results, SecureSphere can instantly detect and block attempts to exploit known Web application vulnerabilities.

Imperva and WhiteHat’s joint turnkey solution effectively detects and protects against website vulnerabilities. This integration provides a complete and automated way for organizations to simplify the management of the Web application security lifecycle. In addition, it significantly reduces the cost and disruption of fixing website vulnerabilities. Because SecureSphere offers virtual patching of vulnerabilities, organizations can design and implement application code fixes on their schedule, without rushed fix and test processes.

The key to the success of this integration is the combination of the accuracy of Sentinel results, all of which are verified by the WhiteHat Security Operations Team, with the proven ability of SecureSphere to block attack attempts against these vulnerabilities in production environments.
