Summary
Introduced Magic Firewall, a network-level firewall delivered through Cloudflare's global network to secure enterprise environments including remote users, branch offices, data centers, and cloud infrastructure. Magic Firewall integrates with Cloudflare One and Magic Transit, enabling self-service configuration of static Layer 3 & 4 mitigations using Wireshark syntax. It aims to replace on-premises firewall appliances by pushing filtering capabilities to Cloudflare's edge data centers, reducing latency and providing a unified view of network traffic.
