Cloudflare Security Posture

A global network designed to make everything you connect to the Internet secure, private, fast, and reliable.

Cloudflare Security Overview

Cloudflare proxies traffic to provide DDoS protection and WAF capabilities. However, if the origin server accepts traffic bypassing Cloudflare, the protections are rendered ineffective.

Security Checks

Origin Protection (warn)
The origin server must be configured to only accept connections from Cloudflare IP ranges or use Cloudflare Tunnels.
Flexible SSL (fail)
The 'Flexible' SSL setting encrypts traffic to the edge but leaves origin traffic unencrypted. Use 'Full (Strict)'.
WAF Configuration (warn)
Web Application Firewall rules must be explicitly enabled and tuned for the specific application profile.
Run a Security Audit

These technical checks are informational heuristics, not a guarantee of security or compliance. Passing a scan does not guarantee protection against zero-days or application logic flaws. Always conduct independent professional audits.
