Identity alone doesn't guarantee a bot will behave responsibly. We are introducing a system to continuously evaluate whether Verified bots honor site preferences, like robots.txt and HTTP 429s, ensuring they remain accountable over time.
Cloudflare Managed Defense uses a team of specialized AI agents built on Workers and global network telemetry to analyze security alerts. By separating deterministic evidence collection from model inference, the system delivers grounded recommendations to Managed Defense Analysts.
Fraudsters are increasingly using AI to bypass stateless security checks. Cloudflare's new Account Abuse Protection dashboard uses stateful analysis and edge-generated Hashed User IDs to help teams investigate and block account abuse.
Quick Tunnels now support email authentication. Add --allowed-mail to one cloudflared command, and only the addresses or domains you list can reach your local app. No Cloudflare account required on either side.
AI sovereignty is not a zero-sum game, but many governments now believe it is. Cloudflare's answer: more local open-source models, model-agnostic security tools, and a commitment to giving nations genuine choice.
We’re building CryptoLabe, an internal AI-powered tool that discovers cryptography across our codebase, surfaces dependencies, and helps us progress toward a full post-quantum migration by 2029. Here’s what we’ve learned so far.
Twelve years after launching Universal SSL, Cloudflare is applying to become a certificate authority. By combining an established root, an ACME-first approach, and Merkle Tree Certificates, we are building a post-quantum CA for the open web.
As post-quantum signatures threaten to inflate TLS handshakes and certificate transparency logs, Merkle Tree Certificates offer a path to compact, auditable authentication. Cloudflare’s new certificate authority will support MTC issuance at scale.
We are expanding access to Cloudforce One's Threat Events Platform to every Cloudflare account and introducing Threat Signals. Threat Signals automatically parses open-source threat reporting, extracts structured indicators, and connects threat context directly to your WAF rules.
Cloudflare has added visibility into post-quantum (PQ) encryption in TLS 1.3 directly into HTTP Analytics, Log Explorer, and Logpush. Learn how to make sure your domain is protected with PQ encryption.
Cloudflare learns the structure of your HTTP requests and identifies deviations. You can add a positive security layer that helps reduce attack surface as AI makes it easier for attackers to generate and vary payloads.
Misconfiguring Turnstile by skipping backend validation leaves sites exposed to bots. Turnstile Spin fixes incomplete setups by using your preferred AI coding agent to wire up server-side verification.
External security researchers at Accomplish identified a vulnerability in Cloudflare Containers that could expose residual disk data from previous workloads. We explain how the issue worked, how we investigated it, and the steps we took to remediate it.
Cloudflare is giving site owners a way to stay discoverable while disallowing AI training. New controls and an Accountable designation establish a shared model with Apple, Google, and Microsoft.
You can now scope access to individual Workers and assign narrower Developer Platform roles, so teammates, CI tokens, and agents get only the access they need to debug, deploy, or monitor safely.
1.1.1.1 now validates DNSSEC signatures using NIST’s post-quantum ML-DSA-44 algorithm. Here is how we manage 2,420-byte signatures and downgrade risks at scale.
Use production traffic and security signals to prioritize findings, prepare edge mitigations when safe, and propose code patches. By combining WAF data with OpenAI Daybreak models, Vulnerability Discovery and Remediation helps teams identify and patch the most critical threats first.
NIST is advancing nine new post-quantum signature algorithms as potential candidates for future standardization. We take a closer look at all of them, and argue that while they are in the works and show great potential, we should use ML-DSA for now — the best currently available.
