HOW IT WORKS

Filter and inspect web activity

Regain visibility and enforce consistent protections across your remote workforce — modernize Internet security with capabilities from Cloudflare’s Security Service Edge (SSE) platform.

  • DNS filtering: Block harmful and inappropriate content to mitigate risk and enforce acceptable use policies.
  • SWG: Proxy and inspect all L4–L7 Internet traffic in a single pass with DNS / IP / port / protocol filters and HTTPS / SSH content controls.
  • Natively integrated remote browser isolation (RBI): Insulate local devices from malware by running all browser code on Cloudflare’s low-latency global network.
  • Natively integrated data loss prevention (DLP): Detect and block sensitive data in HTTP(S) traffic and files.

CLOUDFLARE TECHNOLOGY IN ACTION

Report testimonial - Thumbnail
BOUVET LOGO

Bouvet, a Scandinavian IT and digital communications consultancy, sought a simpler, more consolidated approach to protect its hybrid workforce.

Today, the company uses Cloudflare to shield remote and office users from online threats with services like DNS filtering, SWG inspection, RBI, and more.

In the process, Bouvet has been able to replace legacy tools and enforce consistent Internet security policies across 2300 employees and 17 offices in Norway and Sweden with a single vendor.

“We depend on Cloudflare to reduce our attack surface by securing our ports, filtering threats, and cleaning up our traffic.”

— Security Operations Lead, Bouvet
