It's easy to set up because you point the DNS to it, and it's working in under 15 minutes
Cloudflare is highly scalable. Cloudflare is a system with a web portal that the end users like me see. It's a console where we can adjust the DNS, caching, and security features all in that console. Cloudflare owns thousands of servers across the world that cache the data. It's a powerful solution. When clients sign up for Cloudflare, they're getting this monster content delivery network, security, and a web application firewall in one. It's all rolled into one, and it's massive. Unless you have your website hosted on a massive hosting provider, there's no way that you can deliver the amount of data that Cloudflare can provide to the end users. If you have static content, there's no way that you can ever match what Cloudflare can do. Obviously, there are competitors to Cloudflare that do the same, but I'm saying other types of solutions. Let's say you go with F5. Great, that's on-prem. That's in your colo. You can't deliver as much data to the internet as you can with a CDN. You don't have to spend $20,000 on a net scaler, F5, or whatever Cisco's selling now. You don't have to buy that. You pay them $50 a month or $150 a month. It's totally worth it because even in five years, you'll never get the performance value, not just the actual ROI. You have to consider how much throughput you can get with Cloudflare.

Controls and limits data transfers to enhance security but network traffic visibility needs improvement
DeviceLock has been problematic and not very effective for us so far, maybe due to configuration issues. It was already in place when I joined and wasn't performing well. We need more control over data, which DeviceLock hasn't provided yet. I remember they moved to Acronis from another company. There were features related to network traffic visibility, which could improve the DLP significantly. Other solutions already offer this kind of network visibility for data loss prevention. They are limited compared to before. Some features were removed from the current version. Policy management with DeviceLock was not very user-friendly. The IT team had to access two servers to make changes. The way the platform and solution are presented requires time to understand and get familiar with.

Implements confidentiality principles effectively
Over the years, a lot has changed, so it is not that much at the moment. I know they are all working on changing the look and feel, the UI. It is always good to have a more modern look and feel than the old-school square blocks. Other than that, it's mainly support. Having someone within a region who understands the countries and how they approach data and information security is sometimes where the problem lies. It's not always the product.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The UI is good."
"Many websites require an SSL certificate because they sell stuff and want SSL. Cloudflare comes with an SSL certificate built in. It's automatic. You sign yourself up for Cloudflare, and an SSL certificate automatically protects your website. You don't necessarily need a certificate if you have a connection between your website and your host, the server, Cloudflare, and the host."
"When using services like Heroku, Cloudflare is very useful for CNAME flattening. I also use it for their end-to-end SSL with TLS authentication on nginx for securing servers."
"The solution provides good load balancing and protection against DDoS attacks."
"The tool is user-friendly."
"Centralized, full-featured DNS."
"It's very user-friendly."
"Cloudflare is a security SaaS provider that provides security and protects us from any application layer attack."
"The most useful feature is the control and limiting of users sending documentation. It works with classification. When you classify your data, DeviceLock identifies it and, depending on your policy, can notify you where the data is going and who's using it."
"Trellix DLP offers many features, using EDR, EPP, disk encryption, and other features."
"Trellix's technical support deserves a perfect rating, and I would rate it ten out of ten compared to other solutions."
"It prevents enterprises from installing external software and devices and can block specific network pathways."
"Trellix DLP helps handle false positives, but it depends on your configuration. It is quite overwhelming in terms of its dashboard."
"The most effective aspect of Trellix DLP is that it does what it's supposed to do."
"Trellix can transfer the data through the cloud. The storage device control is an important feature."
"The solution involves implementing the confidentiality, utility, and availability principles."
"The tool has prebuilt templates for data classification. It is easier for customers to get started."
 

Cons

"The reporting can definitely be improved to offer a lot more explanation on something that may have happened or has actually happened."
"The solution could work at being less expensive. It costs a lot to use it."
"It would be beneficial for us if Cloudflare could offer a scrubbing solution. This would involve taking a snapshot of my website and keeping it live during a DDoS attack, ensuring uninterrupted service for our users. DDoS attacks are typically short in duration, and having Cloudflare maintain the site's availability from its secure network would enhance the overall user experience. I would appreciate it if Cloudflare could consider implementing this feature. Many organizations already utilize similar capabilities in their CDN platforms, where a static snapshot of the web page is displayed during DDoS attacks. In terms of features, Cloudflare needs to enhance its resilience and stay more focused on adopting new technologies. For instance, solutions like F5 XC Box, Access Solution, and Distributed Cloud Solution have impressive features, and Cloudflare should strive to match and exceed those capabilities. There's a need for improvement in areas like AI-based DDoS attacks and Layer 7 WAF features. Cloudflare should prioritize enhancements in areas such as behavioral DDoS and protection against SQL injection attacks, considering the prevalent trend of public exposure to the internet for business reasons. Overall, Cloudflare needs to invest more in advancing its feature set."
"Cloudflare could be improved by introducing a mid-tier pricing option."
"One area of improvement is in the Access Rules. Hypothetically, if we wanted to block or challenge traffic outside of the United States, the only way to currently do that (as far as I know) is to enter every single country outside of the United States. That could be a labor intensive job. A solution could be to enable users to create a rule where traffic is only allowed within a certain country."
"There are some issues with the CDN services."
"For the free and Pro plans, Cloudflare could use a simple bot to provide information to users. This would improve support, especially for less advanced users who utilize the free components."
"Cloudflare's console should be made more user-friendly."
"Policy management with DeviceLock was not very user-friendly."
"Coverage for Mac OS is lacking as features like clipboard and print protection don't function as expected."
"Virtualization is complex and requires proper training. However, once you get trained, it is a very good product."
"The whole UI of the server console installed on the standalone computers is hefty."
"Trellix is incompatible with Linux, and its DLP part is incompatible with Mac. Sometimes, it does not work on Windows, either."
"In future releases, I would like to see like to see encryption available on the cloud-based version."
"It's not very user-friendly for a beginner, so it would be easier if the platform or console were manageable or user-friendly. The dashboard could be simplified."
"The bugs need improvement."
"Trellix DLP can improve by addressing the lack of features such as deep drive DLP and email notifications present in other solutions like Forcepoint."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product's pricing is cheap."
"The solution is expensive when compared to other products but offers unlimited bandwidth."
"The tool is a premium product, so it is very expensive."
"There are no additional costs beyond the standard licensing fees."
"I believe their performance has improved, but I'd like to refrain from discussing the pricing aspect related to the cloud. The pricing, in my opinion, could be simplified, and I think they should consider reevaluating the pricing for support, as it can be quite high. At times, this cost can make it challenging to choose CARFAGuard or opt for the support."
"The cost primarily depends on the size of the organization."
"So far I use free tier and happy with it. You can subscribe to business package if needed."
"The price is reasonable."
