Acquisition will add a new layer of security,
enhancing customers’ ability to protect their business from
cybercriminals
Imperva, Inc. (NASDAQ: IMPV), a leading global provider of
best-in-class cybersecurity solutions on-premises, in the cloud and
across hybrid environments, today announced it signed an agreement
to acquire Prevoty. Together, Imperva and Prevoty will provide
comprehensive security solutions to protect application services
residing on-premises and in the cloud. This solution aligns with
how organizations are developing and deploying application services
in a hybrid cloud world.
The combination of Imperva and Prevoty will expand customers’
security capabilities and their visibility into how applications
are accessed, what happens within the applications, and how
applications and users interact with data. With this expanded view
across their business assets, customers will have deeper insights
to help them understand and mitigate security risk.
“The acquisition is expected to advance our hybrid security
strategy and further our mission to deliver best-in-class
cybersecurity solutions,” said Chris Hylen, president and CEO of
Imperva. “Prevoty complements current Imperva application and data
security offerings. When combined with our on-premises and cloud
products, it will help businesses better protect themselves from
attacks, prevent breaches and monitor security across their digital
business. Combined with Imperva insights offerings, Prevoty will
further help to identify the true risks to customers’ application
services.”
An early innovator, Prevoty is the recognized leader in The
Forrester New Wave™: Runtime Application Self-Protection, Q1 2018.
According to the report, written by Amy DeMartine, principal
analyst at Forrester, “Prevoty leads the pack with robust attack
detection, response, and visibility.”
Prevoty will enable customers using agile development to
natively build security into their applications, extending
Imperva’s reach into the DevOps market. Prevoty combines the rich,
detailed context of the application itself with an easy-to-deploy
security solution that integrates seamlessly into continuous
integration and continuous deployment life cycles.
“Our team is excited to join Imperva, a company with a long
track record of cybersecurity leadership and innovation,” said
Julien Bellanger, CEO of Prevoty. “We believe that the combination
of our solutions with Imperva’s portfolio of products will allow us
to jointly create the gold standard in technology for application
and data protection for organizations everywhere.”
Imperva has extended employment offers to all Prevoty employees
and looks forward to them joining the team. Prevoty’s Los Angeles
office will become an Imperva location.
