Why a new approach to SASE

Legacy architectures promised simplicity but delivered complexity. Cloudflare One is different by design.

Problem

Complexity is the enemy of security

Legacy SASE architectures have become the new technical debt. First-generation SASE promised simplicity but delivered a patchwork of proxies and inconsistent policies. As AI accelerates data movement, you need an architecture unified by design — not by acquisitions.
Solution

Truly unified SASE

The "platform" promise, finally delivered. One control plane, data plane, and infrastructure layer. Cloudflare One eliminates the friction of legacy security and networking with a platform that's easier to deploy and built to last.

The fast path to safe AI adoption

Don't just manage shadow AI — secure the infrastructure. Cloudflare One provides deep visibility and control over GenAI usage and is the first SASE platform to secure connections to Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers.

The easy-to-use SASE

Stop paying for bloated tools you can't deploy. Roll out high-value security and networking capabilities in hours, not months. Turn your security investment into immediate, measurable protection.

A truly composable, programmable platform

Cloudflare's architecture adapts to you — ensuring your business logic won't break your security model. Augment your existing infrastructure stack, and infinitely customize your SASE deployment.

Cloudflare SASE FAQs

Cloudflare One is an agile, unified SASE platform designed to connect and protect an organization's workforce, AI agents, and infrastructure. It delivers a single control plane, data plane, and infrastructure layer to eliminate the friction and technical debt of legacy security and networking.

Cloudflare One converges core SASE services such as zero trust network access (ZTNA), secure web gateway (SWG), cloud access security broker (CASB), network-as-a-service (NaaS), and firewall-as-a-service (FWaaS). It also includes remote browser isolation (RBI), data loss prevention (DLP), email security, and digital experience monitoring (DEM).

First-generation SASE solutions often deliver a patchwork of proxies or inconsistent policies based on stitched-together acquisitions. Cloudflare One is unified by design on a global connectivity cloud, offering a composable and programmable architecture that allows organizations to roll out security and networking capabilities in hours instead of months.

The platform provides deep visibility and control over GenAI usage and helps manage shadow AI by discovering unsanctioned tools. It is the first SASE platform to secure connections to Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers and can analyze the intent of AI prompts to block sensitive corporate data from leaking into public models.

Cloudflare One replaces the need for expensive MPLS contracts and complex hardware by shifting the heavy lifting to the cloud. This "light branch, heavy cloud" SASE model allows any location to have the same level of consistent connectivity and security, while routing traffic through Cloudflare's global network.

Cloudflare One replaces clunky, insecure VPNs with identity-first, quantum-safe access to internal applications. This prevents threats from spreading laterally through granular zero trust rules and allows organizations to grant frictionless access to contractors and BYOD employees in minutes.

Cloudflare One uses AI-powered email security to stop phishing, impersonation, malware, and business email compromise (BEC). These protections can be extended by adding native SASE controls, such as isolating risky web links found in emails.

Cloudflare delivers full SASE services from over 300 cities around the world. This global footprint protects approximately 20% of the web and secures roughly 80% of the top generative AI companies, providing unmatched threat intelligence and zero-day visibility.
