Commenting on the announcement, Nitin Mishra, Senior Vice President – Product Management, Netmagic said, “Imperva is unparalleled in the Web Application Firewall (WAF) segment globally and we are pleased to have forged this alliance with them. The WAF platform is now imperative in Indian enterprises’ highly complex threat landscape and with this announcement, we have the first-mover advantage in the market.”
“SecureAT has already seen adoption in the Indian enterprise space – a leading global telecommunications company and a leading bank headquartered in South-East Asia have already deployed the service,” added Mishra.
“With its booming economy, India is a hotbed of activity. It’s only natural that data security is a critical concern for organizations here. Our partnership with Netmagic will extend the power of our
comprehensive data center security solutions to Indian enterprises, so their data and their customers’ data will be secure and accessible,” said Stree Naidu, Vice President – Asia Pacific and Japan (APJ), Imperva.
SecureAT will be offered with Netmagic services which include security-as-a-service, high availability of the service, bundled security operations center (SOC) support and short deployment cycle.

“The value proposition that we offer with SecureAT is the huge savings for enterprises. Deploying the WAF platform over cloud instead of a dedicated in-house implementation can save as much as 40-50% in TCO over a 3-year period, in addition to the benefits of ease of deployment with zero downtime,” added Nitin.
