Summary
The acquisition of Kivera adds inline cloud app controls to Cloudflare One, extending its SASE portfolio. This provides preventative security controls for cloud services by inspecting cloud API traffic. Key capabilities include blocking misconfigurations before they occur, enforcing tenant boundaries, preventing data exfiltration, reducing shadow infrastructure, streamlining compliance, and enabling flexible DevOps. This complements existing CSPM and CNAPP tools by acting as a first line of defense against deployment errors.
