Network Firewall

Cloudflare Network Firewall

Cloudflare Network Firewall is a firewall-as-a-service (FWaaS) offering for on-premises networks and WANs. No more bottlenecks — instead of backhauling traffic through firewall appliances, filter layer 3 and 4 traffic with the Cloudflare network, which has locations in over 330 cities throughout the world. This allows for secure and efficient network traffic management.

Secure entire WAN

Enforce network security policies across your entire WAN, including headquarters, branch offices, and virtual private clouds. Cloudflare Network Firewall ensures that all network traffic is inspected and filtered according to your security policies.

No appliances to manage

The Cloudflare Network Firewall is delivered from the Cloudflare global network, eliminating the need to manage hardware appliances. This approach removes artificial choke points and downtime for appliance upgrades, providing a more efficient and scalable security solution.

Deploy rules instantly

Fine-grained filtering rules can be deployed globally in seconds. Manage rules from a single dashboard, allowing for rapid response to changing security needs and ensuring that your network is always protected.

Apply filtering policies on the Cloudflare global network

Cloudflare Network Firewall runs everywhere in Cloudflare’s global network, letting you inspect layer 3 / 4 traffic no matter where your branch offices are located.
