Project Galileo: Lessons from 5 years of protecting the most vulnerable online

Today marks the 5th anniversary of Cloudflare's Project Galileo, which provides free security services to nearly 600 politically or artistically important organizations worldwide. The initiative was launched in response to a mistake made by Cloudflare in 2014 when it failed to protect an independent Ukrainian newspaper under attack during the Russian invasion of Crimea. Since then, Project Galileo has grown and now includes 28 partner organizations that help determine which non-profits or small commercial entities are eligible for protection. The initiative is a source of pride for Cloudflare and its employees, as it aligns with their mission to build a better internet by protecting those who need it most.
