Page Shield can now watch for malicious outbound connections made by third-party JavaScript code

What's this blog post about?

Cloudflare has introduced a new feature called Connection Monitor, which is an addition to its Page Shield client-side security solution. This tool helps website administrators detect malicious outbound connections made by third-party JavaScript code on their sites. By monitoring these connections, administrators can ensure that only appropriate third parties are receiving sensitive data from site visitors. The Connection Monitor complements the existing Script Monitor feature of Page Shield, which focuses on analyzing JavaScript code to find malicious signals. Together, they provide a comprehensive security solution for websites using third-party JavaScript libraries.
