Overview
Cloudflare sits in front of your website and services, handling traffic before it reaches the servers. This provides both faster delivery and a layer of security that blocks attacks and unauthorized traffic.
Security before traffic reaches its destination
DDoS attacks and automated bot traffic are handled within Cloudflare's network, not on your own servers. Firewall rules can be customized so that known attack patterns are blocked without affecting regular visitors.
Faster for visitors
The content is cached on the network and delivered from a location close to the visitor. The difference is most noticeable on mobile devices and slower connections.
Access without a VPN
With Zero Trust, employees can access internal services based on their identity and device, rather than being granted access to the entire network through a VPN tunnel.
