Imperva Application Security Platform is generally used for legacy-type applications that cannot be migrated to the cloud. A specific example of how I use this tool to protect legacy applications in my organization is that we have an intranet which has not been fully developed or technologically advanced enough to run in the cloud, so by having this, we secure it effectively.

Imperva Application Security Platform allows you to enhance your application security posture. Among the best features that Imperva Application Security Platform offers, the policies are very dynamic, and it also has profiling at the application level that allows you to work in this mode.

I would like to highlight especially the ThreatRadar feature, which is an additional subscription, and ThreatRadar helps with threat intelligence by allowing you to block advanced attacks as well as mitigate risks more effectively.

Imperva Application Security Platform positively impacts us because we have a critical website, so by placing a WAF of Imperva's quality, it allows us to have visibility and granular control over the various attacks that can occur on the website.

A concrete improvement I have seen thanks to Imperva Application Security Platform is that it has decreased the level of connections to the final server. The specific improvement is that the connections that reach the server are fewer because Imperva is already filtering them at the WAF stage.

The clarification on time savings is that it refers to the time spent on alerts.
