User level: Level 1 (9 points)I've recently had this strange page appear while visiting a shops website.
I haven't visited any suspect sites. And I only bought this MacBook Pro in February direct from an Apple Store.
I've also visited the above site before, on my current MBP, without seeing this page.
It's got me paranoid that there's something on my computer.

You can always try a different browser and compare your results.
You have no control over server errors are website coding issues.
I would click no further— you can see the supporting "Imperva" is having problems currently experiencing tracking recent operational updates and issues:

The dialog is garbage and everything in it should be ignored. For example "protected and accelerated" by <whatever> is utter hogwash — an understatement, but a more accurate description would be bleeped out by this site's bad word filter.
It may be a pathetic phishing scam. Clicking that "Click to verify" trap could be bait intended to get you hooked into taking inappropriate actions.
If you should continue to be harassed by it the next step would be to download and run EtreCheck, so write back for instructions.

No need to worry. That's just a janky web site. I get the following when I try to go there:

For what it's worth that site may very well be janky but it loaded without complaint on my devices here in the US.

It appears fine when I visit via my iPhone(iPhone 17, iOS 27.0.1), and as mentioned, this page has only appeared recently, so it got me paranoid.
Thanks for the reply.
