Cloudflare
A fully programmable secure web gateway
Traditional secure web gateways enforce security through a binary allow, block, or log model, which limits customization for complex environments. Cloudflare is integrating its Cloudflare Gateway and Data Loss Prevention with Cloudflare Workers, allowing customers to run arbitrary code inline at the moment a security decision is made. The new Forward action, available in public beta, routes matched HTTP traffic to a Worker that acts as inline middleware, enabling request and response modification or asynchronous tasks like sending Slack messages. Custom Functions, arriving before the end of the year, call a Worker during policy evaluation and return values used as selectors, enabling data-conditional rules and DLP validation against external APIs. Because Gateway and Workers run on the same machines in Cloudflare’s global network, dispatching traffic to a Worker is a local function call with no hairpinning or added latency.

The best engineering reads, once a week.
