Enhancements

Set on/off times for custom rules

The new Scheduler rule filter parameter enables you to configure fixed times and days for a custom rule to be active.

For example, you can use it to redirect requests to a backup site during scheduled maintenance to avoid downtime.

Where it’s located: On the Rules page, when adding a new custom rule.

For instructions on using the Scheduler parameter in a custom rule, see Scheduler.

Performance improvement in SIEM log push mechanism

This issue applies to customers using the push mode for uploading Imperva SIEM integration logs to an S3 or SFTP repository.

In the event that a significantly slowed upload rate is detected over an extended period of time, you will be notified by email. This notification enables you to verify your account's log integration settings, as well as check your repository's availability and stability to resolve any issues that may be preventing proper upload.

Upload attempts will continue for the period of time specified in the email. If the issue is not resolved during that time, another notification email is sent, informing you that log files may be partially or fully lost, without the possibility of retrieval.

What changed: Previously, email notifications were sent and log files deleted only in the event of total upload failure.

Fixes

Dynamic Content Acceleration (Origin PoP) requirements

The Dynamic Content Acceleration service (Origin PoP) leverages the high-quality connectivity between Imperva network PoPs to improve response time for dynamic resources.

As part of this service, Imperva utilizes connection pooling, maintaining and reusing TCP connections between the selected Origin PoP and your origin server to optimize round-trip times. To support this, the Origin Connection Reuse setting must be enabled.

What changed: Previously, when selecting an Origin PoP, a message was displayed indicating that the Origin Connection Reuse setting was required, but it was not enforced in the UI or API. Rather, it was enabled in the background to support activation of the Origin PoP service.

The following changes were implemented in the UI and API:

  • To enable the Origin PoP setting, the Origin Connection Reuse option must first be enabled.
  • You cannot disable the Origin Connection Reuse option if Origin PoP is enabled.

Where it’s located:

  • In the Cloud Security Console:

    Origin PoP: On the sidebar, click Websites > Settings > Origin Servers. For details, see Dynamic Content Acceleration.

    Origin Connection Reuse: On the sidebar, click Websites > Delivery. For details, see Delivery Settings.

  • In the API. For details, see Site Management API.

Known Issues

None.
