![](https://www.imperva.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2019/03/iStock-864181422.jpg) [SC Magazine]() has long been one of the most respected names in cybersecurity journalism, and one that has [written about Imperva’s security research]() and solutions many times. So we’re proud to announce that we’ve won the 2019 SC Award for Best Database Security solution at [SC’s awards ceremony on March 5th]() in San Francisco. Held nearby to the RSA Conference 2019, the SC Awards also honored Imperva as a [Finalist for Best Web Application Security. ]() Imperva’s been on a roll awards-wise. Just two weeks ago, CRN magazine named Imperva one of its [Top 20 Coolest Cloud Vendors for security](). That same month, CRN profiled two of our executives, [VP Jim Ritchings]() and [Senior Director Kirt Jorgenson](), in its list of [2019 Channel Chiefs](). Meanwhile, our AAP solution, which automatically safeguards applications from new and unknown threats, was [named a Silver Winner]() in the Cybersecurity Excellence Awards 2019. And going back to the end of last year, [Imperva Attack Analytics]() was named a finalist for [best security solution in CRN’s Tech Innovator Award](), while our[ Web Application Firewall (WAF) ]()was named one of the best in 2018 by enterprise customers surveyed by Gartner Peer Insights. See a[ full list of Imperva honors here.]() Why do our capabilities, especially in [data security]() and cloud, win recognition from customers and experts alike? Because Imperva not only secures your data from theft, we also simplify compliance with vital regulations such as [GDPR](), SOX, PCI, HIPAA, and more. For instance, our [Discovery and Assessment]() capability automatically finds unknown databases, classifies sensitive data, and detects database vulnerabilities. [Data Activity Monitoring and Protection]() reliably monitors and protects databases with little or no impact on performance or availability. We standardize audit across all your databases, enabling organizations to automate compliance whether your databases are on-premises or in the cloud. Our [Data Risk Analytics]() capability uses machine learning and user data behavior analytics to distill millions of alerts to pinpoint suspicious activity and provide actionable insights in plain language. Our efficient data collection and processing means we require less than half the number of appliances as our primary competitor. And it helped one customer, [a computer manufacturer](), lower their cost of ownership by 70%. Finally, our [Data Masking]() feature reduces risk in non-production environments by replacing large volumes of sensitive data easily with realistic fictional data. Through our [FlexProtect licensing plans](), your enterprise has access to our suite of data security and application security capabilities, which you can quickly deploy wherever your applications and data are located — on-premises, in the cloud, in multiple clouds, or all of the above. And as customers continue moving their applications to the cloud, they can be confident that Imperva will migrate our security there, too. With FlexProtect, there’s no risk of [complicated, inflexible security licenses failing to cover your hybrid data infrastructure]() or slowing down your digital transformation. We are at the RSA Conference all week at Booth 527 in the South Expo. Come down and meet our experts to learn more about our data and application security solutions and how our new FlexProtect plans can be as agile as your organization needs to be.
