Announcing two highly requested DLP enhancements: Optical Character Recognition (OCR) and Source Code Detections

What's this blog post about?

Cloudflare has introduced two enhancements to its Data Loss Prevention (DLP) service: Optical Character Recognition (OCR) support and predefined source code detections. OCR allows customers to identify sensitive information within images or scanned documents, while predefined source code detections enable organizations to scan inline traffic for common code languages and block HTTP requests to prevent data leaks. These features are designed to help businesses protect their sensitive data and reduce the risks of breaches, regulatory non-compliance, and reputational damage. The capabilities are available within Cloudflare's DLP engine, which is part of its broader suite of security services for web, SaaS, and private applications.
