Vendor-authored guide urges WAAP buyers to weigh SecureIQLab v5.0 test results and false positive rates

The article, which promotes Imperva◼, argues that WAAP platforms should be compared on two measures from the SecureIQLab◼ Cloud WAAP v5.0 test: attack blocking and false positive avoidance, across 12 products and 1,608 attack and 1,487 legitimate-traffic scenarios. It recommends asking vendors about protocol-by-protocol API coverage, time to a tuned low false-positive state over two weeks of real traffic, and licensing costs over 24 to 36 months of growth. It reports that Imperva scored 100% on both measures in that test, and notes that no single platform suits every environment.
