Cloudflare Gateway
Internet-native Secure Web Gateway (SWG)
- Defend against ransomware, phishing, and other threats for faster, safer Internet browsing
- Reduce cyber risk by tapping into Cloudflare's massive Internet traffic visibility and threat intelligence pool
- Build custom HTTP, DNS, and network filtering policies across remote and office users
Secure hybrid work
Top use cases for Gateway
- Protect against phishing and ransomware - Thwart attacks with proactive filtering and inspection policies across comprehensive security categories.
- Secure distributed remote offices - Protect office users first with DNS filtering and later, more comprehensive inspections across all locations.
- Upgrade struggling SWG hardware - Send L4-L7 traffic through Cloudflare's global network and replace legacy appliances that fail to scale.
Defend against Internet threats
How it works
- Securely route traffic from individual devices or branch routers to Cloudflare
- Inspect traffic against massive threat intelligence and customized filtering
- Apply other in-line services like data loss prevention or remote browser isolation for additional controls to protect your organization's exposure to the open Internet
