About Cloudflare Data Loss Prevention
Cloudflare Data Loss Prevention (DLP) is a cloud-native solution that safeguards confidential information—from personally identifiable information (PII) to intellectual property—across your organization’s digital ecosystem. Integrated into the Cloudflare Zero Trust platform, DLP inspects traffic in real time and enforces policies designed to identify, classify, and block the unauthorized transfer of sensitive data. By leveraging Cloudflare’s global edge network, Cloudflare DLP delivers consistent, low-latency protection regardless of user location or device, helping organizations maintain compliance and prevent costly data breaches.
