How To Use 1.1.1.1 w/ WARP App And Cloudflare Gateway To Protect Your Phone From Security Threats

Cloudflare Gateway protects users and devices from security threats. You can now use Gateway inside the 1.1.1.1 w/ WARP app to secure your phone from malware, phishing and other security threats.

The 1.1.1.1 w/ WARP app has secured millions of mobile Internet connections. When installed, 1.1.1.1 w/ WARP encrypts the traffic leaving your device, giving you a more private browsing experience.

Using Cloudflare Gateway to Stay Productive (and turn off distractions) While Working Remotely

This week, like many of you reading this article, I am working from home. I don’t know about you, but I’ve found it hard to stay focused when the Internet is full of news related to the coronavirus.

Protect your team with Cloudflare Gateway

On January 7th, we announced Cloudflare for Teams, a new way to protect organizations and their employees globally, without sacrificing performance.
