How to replace your email gateway with Cloudflare Area 1

What's this blog post about?

Email security remains a significant concern for organizations despite the use of Secure Email Gateways (SEGs). The prevalence of cloud-native email services has rendered traditional SEGs redundant, as they fail to provide adequate protection against modern phishing attacks. These attacks are low volume, highly targeted, and exploit our trust in email communications. To effectively combat these threats, advanced email analysis and threat detection algorithms are required, which a SEG cannot perform at scale. Cloudflare Area 1 offers proactive scanning of the internet for attacker infrastructure and phishing campaigns under construction, providing comprehensive protection against modern phishing attacks.
