SASE (CLOUDFLARE ONE)
Cloudflare WAN
Simplify branch connectivity with network-as-a-service
Bring the simplicity of coffee shop networking to your enterprise. Modernize your architecture with a light-branch, heavy-cloud approach, minimizing your on-prem footprint while ensuring a consistent, high-performance experience everywhere.
Benefits of Cloudflare WAN
Improved operational agility
Centrally manage enterprise network connectivity and security from one interface. On-ramp traffic in minutes with zero-touch configuration.
Built-in, not bolt-on, security
Get cloud-native DDoS protection, network firewalling, SSE, and Zero Trust functionality — all deeply integrated and delivered as a service.
Reduced network costs
Minimize your branch footprint and shift network functions to the cloud to reduce reliance on expensive MPLS or SD-WAN deployments.
How it works
Using Cloudflare to connect your enterprise
Use Cloudflare One Appliance, which is available as a physical or virtual appliance, to connect and steer traffic to the Cloudflare network. Cloudflare WAN enforces Cloudflare One security policies and delivers traffic to other sites in your network and to applications in the Internet and the cloud.

What our customers are saying
"Cloudflare has built one of the world’s most interconnected networks. And to have built-in DDoS protection, traffic acceleration, network firewall, and Zero Trust functionality, over Cloudflare’s global IP network that can be managed using a single management plane — is arguably the biggest leap in enterprise network technology in the last couple of decades."
