One year after declaring Content Independence Day, a dynamic market for monetized content has officially emerged. In this report, we examine how the rise of autonomous AI agents is upending traditional search referrals and detail the new infrastructure required to support a sustainable web economy.

Search is how we find nearly everything on the web — creators, merchants, answers. AI is rewriting the rules, leaving creators caught between staying discoverable in an agentic era and getting paid for their work. Today we're launching two initiatives to help.

For our second Content Independence Day, we’re giving website owners finer options to manage AI traffic. Instead of a one-size-fits-all block, all customers can now easily distinguish and manage Search, Agent, and Training bots, alongside the new ability to protect ad-monetized pages.

Cloudflare’s new Attribution Business Insights dashboard helps website owners understand crawler behavior, appetite, and potential value, fueling business-level conversations around crawl compensation.

Cloudflare Workflows, our durable execution engine for multi-step applications, now supports saga-style rollbacks, allowing developers to specify a compensating action for each step.do().

Self-Managed OAuth is now available to all developers on Cloudflare. Here's how we executed a zero-downtime migration of our core OAuth engine to make it happen.

The new post-quantum executive order sets a 2030 migration deadline and establishes a powerful foundation for post-quantum resilience. We look at what it gets right, where it can go further, and our migration playbook for government and industry.

By rearchitecting the Images binding, we accidentally uncovered a bug that existed in the open-source hyper library across multiple major versions.

The moment an agent needs to deploy something, it slams face-first into a wall built for humans. Today we're rolling out Temporary Accounts on Cloudflare Workers. Any agent can now run wrangler deploy — temporary and get a live Worker in seconds.

We break down the technical architecture behind our multi-stage vulnerability discovery harness and automated triage loop. Learn how we manage state controls, squash false positives through adversarial review, and route around LLM context limits.

To mark the 12th anniversary of Project Galileo, Cloudflare has released its first comprehensive report analyzing cyberattacks against civil society.

The Agents SDK is now a runtime any agent framework can build on. Today we're opening up the Agents SDK primitives, with Flue as a first framework targeting Agents SDK, and rolling out agents in the dashboard.

The Cloudflare One stack is a library of agent skills that gives any AI agent the knowledge it needs to plan, deploy, and manage a Zero Trust environment — no migration calls required.

Get unified visibility into your email authentication posture and reach full DMARC enforcement with deeper reporting, record analysis, and SPF audits free for every Cloudflare customer.

Cloudflare is deepening our investment in AI with the addition of team members from Ensemble AI, focusing on machine learning infrastructure and efficiency.

Cloudflare Security Insights system now processes over 120 scans per second, providing frequent insights for all customers. By optimizing Kafka consumers, Postgres queries, and our API, we scaled our throughput 10x without adding hardware.

Application Services for Private Origins is available now in closed beta. Route public hostnames to private IP origins over your existing IPsec, GRE, CNI, or Cloudflare Mesh paths. No public IPs or extra connector software required.

In our post about Project Glasswing, we made the argument that the architecture around a vulnerability matters more than the speed of the patch. Here we walk through what that architecture looks like, the threats it defends against, and how we run it ourselves as Cloudflare's customer zero.

Cloudflare customers can now use Cloudforce One threat intelligence directly within the WAF to block high-risk traffic. By using new cf.intel fields, security teams can automate protection against specific threat actors and targeted industries in real time.

AI Gateway now features real-time spend limits to prevent runaway token bills across multiple AI providers. By integrating with Cloudflare Access, companies can use identity-driven budgets and policies.

VoidZero, the team behind Vite, Vitest, Rolldown, Oxc, and Vite+, is joining Cloudflare. Vite stays open source, vendor-agnostic, and built for everyone.

BGP is vulnerable to routing hijacks and path leaks that negatively impact traffic on the Internet. RPKI helps solve some of these problems, but for some forged paths, we need to rely on a simpler mechanism: First AS enforcement in BGP.

We investigated why firmware updates were causing our core servers to take four hours to reboot. By diving into UEFI data structures and iPXE automation, we eliminated unnecessary timeouts and cut boot times back down to minutes.

Here’s how we built Town Lake, Cloudflare's unified analytics platform, alongside Skipper, an internal AI agent running on top of it.

Cloudflare Radar data confirms early indications of a partial Internet restoration in Iran, nearly three months after the shutdown began. Traffic spikes and DNS queries have risen, but network activity is currently just 40% of pre-shutdown levels.

Cloudflare now integrates with the Claude Compliance API, so that security teams can monitor Claude Enterprise activity directly in the Cloudflare Dashboard.

Cloudflare has integrated with Anthropic's Claude Managed Agents to provide a fast, isolated execution environment for autonomous code delivery. This means builders can scale agent workflows globally while strictly controlling access to private backends and easily customizing their agent’s tools and...

In recent weeks, we pointed Mythos and other security-focused LLMs at live code across critical parts of our infrastructure. We share what we observed, the models’ strengths and weaknesses, and what the work around them needs to look like before any of it can scale.

When a partitioning change to our petabyte-scale ClickHouse cluster caused critical billing jobs to stall, standard metrics showed no obvious errors. This post explores how we identified severe lock contention in ClickHouse's query planner and built upstream patches to fix it.

We’ve enabled higher usage limits, faster performance, better reliability, and increased shipping velocity for our Browser Run product by rebuilding on top of Cloudflare’s Containers. Here’s how.
