클라우드, 네트워크, 애플리케이션 및 사용자를 연결하고 보호하는 현대적인 방법인 클라우드 연결성으로 여러분을 모십니다

우리가 근무하면서 가장 좋아하는 부분은 Cloudflare 고객과 대화하는 시간입니다. 고객의 IT 및 보안 문제에 대하여 항상 새롭고 흥미로운 사실을 알게 됩니다.

최근 이러한 대화에 변화가 있었습니다. 고객이 언급하는 가장 큰 문제를 쉽게 정의할 수 없는 경우가 점점 더 많아집니다. 그리고 이러한 문제는 개별 제품이나 주요 기능으로 대처할 수 없는 것입니다.

더 정확히 말하면 IT 및 보안 팀에서는 디지털 환경에 대한 제어 능력을 잃고 있다고 이야기합니다.

제어 능력 상실은 다양한 형태를 띱니다. 고객은 호환성이 걱정되므로 필요성은 알지만 새로운 기능을 채택하는 것을 꺼리는 모습을 보일 수 있습니다. 아니면 비교적 단순한 변경 사항을 적용하는 데 시간과 노력이 많이 들며, 이러한 변경 사항 때문에 더 큰 영향력이 있을 작업에 투입할 시간을 빼앗기고 있다고 언급할 수도 있습니다. 고객이 느끼는 감정을 요약하자면 "팀이나 예산의 규모가 아무리 크더라도 비즈니스를 완벽하게 연결하고 보호하는 데는 절대 충분하지 않다"는 것입니다.

익숙하게 느껴지는 부분이 있으신가요? 그런 부분이 있다 해도 여러분 혼자 그렇게 느끼는 건 아닙니다.

제어 능력을 상실하는 이유

IT 및 보안이 바뀌는 속도는 빨라지고 있으며 무섭도록 복잡해지고 있습니다. IT 및 보안 팀에서는 과거에 비해 더 다양한 기술 도메인을 책임지고 있습니다. 최근 Forrester 연구에서 확인된 변화에 따르면 사내, 원격, 하이브리드 근무자를 보호할 책임이 있는 팀의 52%만이 지난 5년 동안 이러한 책임을 맡았습니다. 한편 46%는 해당 기간 동안 퍼블릭 클라우드 애플리케이션을 Continue reading

Cloudflare is free of CAPTCHAs; Turnstile is free for everyone

For years, we’ve written that CAPTCHAs drive us crazy. Humans give up on CAPTCHA puzzles approximately 15% of the time and, maddeningly, CAPTCHAs are significantly easier for bots to solve than they are for humans. We’ve spent the past three and a half years working to build a better experience for humans that’s just as effective at stopping bots. As of this month, we’ve finished replacing every CAPTCHA issued by Cloudflare with Turnstile, our new CAPTCHA replacement (pictured below). Cloudflare will never issue another visual puzzle to anyone, for any reason.

Now that we’ve eliminated CAPTCHAs at Cloudflare, we want to make it easy for anyone to do the same, even if they don’t use other Cloudflare services. We’ve decoupled Turnstile from our platform so that any website operator on any platform can use it just by adding a few lines of code. We’re thrilled to announce that Turnstile is now generally available, and Turnstile’s ‘Managed’ mode is now completely free to everyone for unlimited use.

Easy on humans, hard on bots, private for everyone

There’s a lot that goes into Turnstile’s simple checkbox to ensure that it’s easy for everyone, preserves user privacy, and does its job stopping bots. Continue reading

Easily manage AI crawlers with our new bot categories

Today, we’re excited to announce that any Cloudflare user, on any plan, can choose specific categories of bots that they want to allow or block, including AI crawlers.

As the popularity of generative AI has grown, content creators and policymakers around the world have started to ask questions about what data AI companies are using to train their models without permission. As with all new innovative technologies, laws will likely need to evolve to address different parties' interests and what’s best for society at large. While we don’t know how it will shake out, we believe that website operators should have an easy way to block unwanted AI crawlers and to also let AI bots know when they are permitted to crawl their websites.

The good news is that Cloudflare already automatically stops scraper bots today. But we want to make it even easier for customers to be sure they are protected, see how frequently AI scrapers might be visiting their sites, and respond to them in more targeted ways. We also recognize that not all AI crawlers are the same and that some AI companies are looking for clear instructions for when they should not crawl a public website.

Ansible Contributor Summit, Durham 2023

Ansible Contributor Summit, Durham 2023

The Ansible Contributor Summit is a full day working session for community contributors to interact with one another and meet with the Ansible development teams behind the projects like AWX, Galaxy NG, Molecule, Ansible Lint and Event-Driven Ansible. We will discuss important issues affecting the Ansible Community and help shape the future of collaboration.

We are happy to have the opportunity to do a second Contributor Summit this year, and this time it will be part of DjangoCon US 2023 in Durham, NC. Our previous experience co-locating the Contributor Summit with another related event was in February in Ghent, Belgium as part of CfgMgmtCamp 2023. It was so successful, we wanted to do it again with another great match.

Hello, Durham!

We will be meeting in the "Bull City", the home of Ansible itself and the inspiration for our beloved mascot, Ansibull. In case you didn't know, the Ansible office overlooks the Durham Bulls Athletic Park, and this mixed with Ansible word play is why you might see mentions of bulls and Ansibulls in Ansible land.

If you can't attend the event in person in Durham, worry not! Ansible Contributor Summit is a hybrid event, Continue reading

BrandPost: Securing AWS cloud environments

The benefits of moving workloads into a cloud-based environment cannot be overstated. AWS, for instance, is designed for flexibility, allowing users to select the operating system, programming language, web application platform, database, and other services to suit their own specific needs. This adaptability not only simplifies the migration process for existing applications but also provides a strong foundation for building new solutions.However, there is a flip side. With this flexibility comes the potential for an AWS customer to unknowingly introduce risks into their cloud environment. One of the most significant risks is the formation of attack paths, which can be used by malicious actors to infiltrate and compromise cloud resources. These exposed paths emerge through a combination of factors that are often easy to overlook in a complex and fast-moving cloud environment. They are best summarized in three distinct categories:To read this article in full, please click here

VPC: The Secure Bridge Between Application and Infrastructure Teams

The Cloud operating model is all about simplicity—bringing the agility of public clouds together with the security and control that enterprises have traditionally placed importance on. The fundamental expectation is to deploy applications with “one-click”—or one-API call.

In embracing this model, application developers expect to move at warp speed but are often hampered by necessary guardrails imposed by the infrastructure and security teams. For the Modern Enterprise so beholden to rapid software development as part of their innovation lifecycle, this can be frustrating.

The challenge traditionally lies in the complexity of setting up and provisioning infrastructure and security. These problems are compounded in hybrid and multi-cloud deployments, and where multiple teams are involved. Network teams are responsible for configuring and making the network operational. Security teams then take over the definition and implementation of firewall and advanced security policies. This can be multi-layered. Likewise, the application load balancing teams are responsible for ensuring the application performance.

While well intentioned, these teams produce several tickets that can take days to weeks to resolve. As a result, a simple application can take weeks, if not months, months to be deployed.

Application owners and the lines of business owners, want true agility, with Continue reading

Hyperdrive : donner aux bases de données l'impression d'être mondiales

Hyperdrive vous permet d'accéder très rapidement à vos bases de données existantes à partir de Cloudflare Workers, quel que soit leur lieu d'exécution. Il vous suffit de connecter Hyperdrive à votre base de données, de modifier une ligne de code pour vous connecter via Hyperdrive, et voilà : les connexions et les requêtes sont accélérées (et spoiler : vous pouvez l'utiliser dès aujourd'hui).

En un mot, Hyperdrive s'appuie sur notre réseau mondial pour accélérer les requêtes vers vos bases de données existantes, qu'elles se situent chez un fournisseur de cloud traditionnel ou chez votre fournisseur de base de données serverless préféré. La solution réduit considérablement la latence induite par l'établissement répété de nouvelles connexions avec la base de données. En outre, elle met en cache les requêtes de lecture les plus populaires adressées à votre base de données, une opération qui évite souvent d'avoir à s'adresser à nouveau à votre base de données.

Sans Hyperdrive, l'accès à votre base de données principale (celle qui contient les profils de vos utilisateurs, votre stock de produits ou qui exécute votre application web essentielle) hébergée dans la région us-east1 d'un fournisseur de cloud traditionnel se révèlera très lent pour les utilisateurs situés Continue reading

Hyperdrive: Damit Datenbanken global wirken

Hyperdrive macht den Zugriff auf Ihre bestehenden Datenbanken von Cloudflare Workers aus hyperschnell, egal wo sie laufen. Sie verbinden Hyperdrive mit Ihrer Datenbank, ändern eine Codezeile, um eine Verbindung über Hyperdrive herzustellen, und voilà: Verbindungen und Abfragen werden schneller (und Spoiler: Sie können es schon heute nutzen).

Kurz gesagt: Hyperdrive nutzt unser globales Netzwerk, um Abfragen an Ihre bestehenden Datenbanken zu beschleunigen, unabhängig davon, ob sich diese bei einem alten Cloud-Provider oder bei Ihrem bevorzugten Provider für Serverless-Datenbanken befinden. Die Latenz, die durch das wiederholte Einrichten neuer Datenbankverbindungen entsteht, wird drastisch reduziert, und die beliebtesten Leseabfragen an Ihre Datenbank werden zwischengespeichert, sodass Sie oft gar nicht mehr zu Ihrer Datenbank zurückkehren müssen.

Wenn Ihre Kerndatenbank – mit Ihren Nutzerprofilen, Ihrem Produktbestand oder Ihrer wichtigen Web-App – in der us-east1-Region eines veralteten Cloud-Anbieters angesiedelt ist, wird der Zugriff für Nutzende in Paris, Singapur und Dubai ohne Hyperdrive sehr langsam sein und selbst für Nutzende in Los Angeles oder Vancouver langsamer, als er sein sollte. Da jeder Roundtrip bis zu 200 ms dauert, können die mehrfachen Roundtrips, die allein für den Verbindungsaufbau erforderlich sind, leicht bis zu einer Sekunde (oder mehr!) in Anspruch nehmen; und das, bevor Sie überhaupt eine Continue reading
