Zero Trust controls for your SaaS applications

Cloudflare has introduced a new feature, Access for SaaS applications, which extends its Zero Trust security model to cover Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) apps. This enables users to apply consistent security controls across both self-hosted and SaaS applications while consolidating logs in one place. The solution works by integrating with the Amazon Web Services (AWS) management console, Zendesk, and Salesforce, allowing teams to add a Zero Trust layer over every resource they use. This feature is designed to secure applications hosted on Cloudflare's network and SaaS apps that support Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) authentication. It also supports enforcing managed devices and Gateway for SaaS applications, ensuring sensitive data can only be accessed with a corporately managed device.
