Summary

Cloudflare has introduced a new technology called "Keyless SSL" that allows website owners to use its services while retaining control of their private encryption keys. The company developed the solution over two years, and it is now available for all customers with SSL enabled. Keyless SSL enables advanced session resumption techniques, making connections faster and more secure. It also supports multiple key servers for the same certificate, allowing for load balancing and high availability.
