Manage and control the use of dedicated egress IPs with Cloudflare Zero Trust

What's this blog post about?

Cloudflare has announced new egress policy controls for administrators to manage which dedicated egress IP is used and when. This feature offers more control over traffic validation methods, even as organizations adopt modern, cloud-delivered proxy services like secure web gateways (SWGs) and deprecate their complex on-premise appliances. Enterprise customers can use a rule builder in the Cloudflare dashboard to create rules based on attributes such as identity, application, IP address, and geolocation. These policies enhance user experience and security for organizations with hybrid work environments while reducing reliance on VPNs.
