The company will provide a data protection system to Japan's largest television broadcaster.
Israeli data security company Imperva Inc. has won a contract to supply its SecureSphere Database monitoring system to Fuji Television Network, Japan's largest television company.
Fuji TV deployed SecureSphere to strengthen controls over its financial data and establish a governance framework to meet Japan's Financial Instruments and Exchange Law, which is often referred to as J-SOX for its resemblance to the United States Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) Act.
The contract is reportedly worth a few hundred thousand dollars but it is more important strategically. This is Imperva's second deal in Japan, after it won a contract last year to install another of its systems, the SecureSphere Web Application Firewall, on Japan's online foreign currency exchange platform, Gaitme.com.
