The first Zero Trust SIM

What's this blog post about?

The Cloudflare SIM is the world's first Zero Trust SIM, designed to enhance security for mobile devices in the modern workplace. It combines software and network layers to provide better protection against cyber threats, especially those targeting mobile devices. The Cloudflare SIM prevents employees from visiting phishing or malware sites, mitigates common SIM attacks, and enables secure private connectivity to various services. This solution simplifies the installation process for employees by allowing them to scan a QR code from their phone's camera during onboarding. It also addresses privacy concerns by ensuring that only blocked resources are logged without logging every domain visited beyond that. The Zero Trust SIM is currently being tested and will be rolled out to customers in different regions as connectivity is built across the globe.
