Secure your network with Cloudflare
Enterprises need unified, layered security solutions that can be applied across all endpoints and users — no matter where they’re located. Cloudflare can help.
Top network security challenges
Network firewall limitations
In a perfect world, traditional network firewalls could inspect and drop unwanted traffic, but every firewall has finite capacities. If determined enough, attackers can generate enough noise and make it impossible for legitimate traffic to pass through.
Unmanaged devices are susceptible
Accepting inbound network traffic leaves a front door open for attacks. Flaws in applications and operating systems can be exploited by attackers.
Artificial chokepoints cause latency
Traditional methods of inspecting traffic and mitigating attacks often result in unwanted performance tradeoffs, slowing down applications and impairing end user experience.
OVERVIEW
Top use cases for Cloudflare’s Network Security Solutions
Instead of building and operating costly and complex infrastructure, use the Cloudflare network to expand coverage for your business operations around the world.
Reduce load on enterprise firewalls
By shifting your network perimeter to Cloudflare, traffic is automatically absorbed and distributed across all of our data centers. Malicious traffic never reaches your enterprise firewall.
Shift DMZ security to the cloud
Applications that are published to a DMZ are particularly sensitive to Zero-day exploitation. Prevent attacks across your application, transport, and network layers.
Get ahead of attacks with ever-improving threat intelligence
Identify malicious traffic patterns from bots, vulnerability exploits, and other attacks, so your network is protected from new and emerging threats as soon as they arise.
Protect your attack surface
Successful DDoS attacks can hurt revenue, reputation, and customer retention. Organizations need a DDoS strategy that can keep up with the most advanced attacks — without taking up even more of their security and IT teams’ limited time.
Developing a strategy for Network Modernization
Modernizing your network is crucial for cloud-first computing and distributed workforces. This guide provides a roadmap for successful transformation, helping you evaluate your current architecture, develop a scalable strategy, and align networking with security for the future.
