Securing infrastructure at scale with Cloudflare Access

What's this blog post about?

Cloudflare has released a new feature for its Access service, allowing users to replace their corporate VPN by deploying Access at an even greater scale. The updated version enables administrators to build policies using wildcard subdomains, making it easier to manage and secure access to internal web applications and servers in hybrid environments. This feature is particularly useful for teams that need to quickly share sites with a layer of authentication or lock down their entire infrastructure with the Access SSH feature. Additionally, Argo Tunnel can help reduce the burden of managing DNS records by allowing users to expose a server to the Internet without opening any inbound ports.
