Cloudflare provides IT solutions that, among other things, speed up your internet application without the need for additional hardware, software, or code changes. Last year, Cloudflare launched a new remote work solution called Cloudflare for Teams, which quickly gained traction due to its advantageous timing. Additionally, the firm offers digital security and data protection services.
Cloudflare also unveiled many new solutions this month to help its platform compete more effectively.
