Translating risk insights into actionable protection: leveling up security posture with Cloudflare and Mastercard

This post announces a planned integration between Cloudflare and Mastercard's RiskRecon attack surface intelligence. The integration will allow Cloudflare Security Insights to identify and display 'shadow IT' and unprotected hosts discovered by RiskRecon. Users will be able to secure these assets by routing traffic through Cloudflare's proxy and applying security controls like WAF and DDoS protection. The post highlights data showing that systems using Cloudflare have better security hygiene than those that do not. It also details the criticality levels assigned to discovered assets (High, Medium, Low) and provides a fictitious example of an organization with shadow domains. Future plans include risk scoring and AI-assisted diagnosis paths within the Security Insights dashboard.
