Thales announced the immediate availability of Imperva for AWS today. The security company has introduced its Enterprise-level web application firewall as SaaS through the AWS Marketplace. Since this web application firewall is designed using Amazon Web Services technology, this integration will offer the protection of enterprise applications from advanced cyber threats and automated traffic. Thus, it enables businesses to secure their important digital resources by running cloud operations efficiently. Businesses need Imperva to enable application security without increasing network latency.
Countering the Increase in Automated Bot Traffic
Cyber threats in automated form create operational problems for digital enterprises around the world. According to the 2026 Thales Bad Bot Report, 53 percent of all internet traffic is made up of automated traffic. Moreover, automated bot attacks account for 27 percent of attacks on enterprise APIs. Cybercriminals are constantly trying to overcome the user interface and perform automated attacks at machine speed.
The platform deploys directly on Amazon CloudFront to deliver native protection. Unlike legacy content delivery network tools that route traffic externally, Imperva processes data entirely within AWS networks. As a result, the system prevents unauthorized intrusion while preserving zero added latency for legitimate users. Moreover, the SaaS model offers flexible pay-as-you-go pricing for scaling enterprises.
Executive leadership highlighted the strategic advantages of native cloud deployment across global infrastructure.
“Imperva for AWS makes it easy for customers to protect their applications and APIs with enterprise-grade security that works out of the box. By deploying natively on Amazon CloudFront’s 750+ Points of Presence, we keep all traffic within the AWS network, delivering protection at scale with zero added latency,” said Tim Chang, Vice President, Application Security, Thales.
Centralized Management and Multi-Cloud Policy Enforcement
The SaaS deployment delivers multi-layered defenses for web applications, client-side code, and API endpoints. In addition, security teams gain centralized visibility and policy control across AWS and multi-cloud environments. Simplified deployment workflows accelerate onboarding and significantly reduce daily operational friction.
In turn, highly-regulated sectors are able to protect current digital architecture without any additional administrative burden. With the use of enterprise-level security capabilities along with built-in integration with Amazon CloudFront, the companies are able to enhance the security of their applications successfully. In this case, the companies remain compliant while innovating quickly. The clients can buy Imperva via the AWS Marketplace right away.
