Dogfooding from Home: How Cloudflare Built our Cloud VPN Replacement
Cloudflare has launched a program offering its Cloudflare for Teams suite for free to any company until September 1, in response to the increasing need for remote workforces. The company's next-generation VPN alternative, Cloudflare Access, was developed as an internal solution to improve security and efficiency. Originally known as EdgeAuth, it began with one application protected by Access, but its adoption grew organically within the organization due to its effectiveness in streamlining authentication flows for popular internal tools. The zero-trust model of Access allows for granular permissions and increased network visibility, making it a valuable tool for securing remote work environments.
