Improved support for private applications and reusable access policies with Cloudflare Access

Cloudflare has redesigned its Cloudflare Access service to simplify secure access for every application, regardless of whether it's public or private. The new feature allows administrators to define applications using private IP addresses and hostnames, enabling easier management of private network access controls. This update introduces an application-aware firewall, per-application session management, and reusable policies, which simplify policy management across multiple applications. The redesign also includes a refreshed user interface with more information at a glance and consistent workflows for defining and managing applications. Private hostname support is currently limited to port 443 with TLS inspection enabled, but plans are underway to extend support to arbitrary private hostnames on any port and protocol in the future.
