Summary
Cloudflare has partnered with Microsoft Edge to provide a fast and secure VPN directly within the browser. The "Edge Secure Network" is available on the latest version of Microsoft Edge in most markets and comes with 5GB of data for free. Cloudflare's Privacy Proxy Platform uses HTTP CONNECT, a method defined by the HTTP standard that proxies traffic through an established tunnel to ensure privacy. When enabled, users can maintain geolocation-based browsing results without sacrificing their privacy. This partnership aims to bring more private and secure browsing options for Edge users.
