Cloudflare Gateway is a secure Web gateway.
It sits between the DNS server and your network traffic, monitoring and blocking threats to your browsing experience.
It works in the same way as NordVPN's Threat Protection filter, except that Cloudflare is installed directly in the browser.

Unfortunately, the protection isn't up to scratch, with 1 malware blocked out of 12 and only 1 phishing link out of 6 recent ones...
Cloudflare really needs to work on URL blocking, because it's an interesting project...

Thanks for sharing your experience with Cloudflare Gateway. It's unfortunate to hear about the low detection rate. I'm sure your feedback will be valuable to Cloudflare for improving their threat protection. Your video review provides an in-depth analysis, which is appreciated. @rashmi, it seems like there's a request for you.

So what you are saying is that the protection of Cloudflare is nebulous or Cumulonimbus?

I appreciate how promptly you did the test, @Shadowra. Thank you! The content blocking feature of Cloudflare Gateway is top-notch, but its performance in blocking malware and phishing is disappointing.

Congrats to Cloudflare! Who needs first place when you can proudly display your participation trophy?

I'm wondering how effective their AV engine though. Assuming those samples are not larger than 15mb
