In mid-May 2025, blocked the largest DDoS attack ever recorded: a staggering 7.3 terabits per second (Tbps).

Over the past couple of weeks, Cloudflare's DDoS protection systems have automatically and successfully mitigated multiple hyper-volumetric L3/4 DDoS attacks exceeding 3 billion packets per second (Bpps). Our systems also automatically mitigated multiple attacks exceeding 3 terabits per second (Tbps), with the largest ones exceeding 3.65 Tbps. The scale of these attacks is unprecedented.

HPKE (RFC 9180) was made to be simple, reusable, and future-proof by building upon knowledge from prior PKE schemes and software implementations. It is already in use in a large assortment of emerging Internet standards and has a large assortment of interoperable implementations. This article provides an overview of this new standard, going back to discuss its motivation, design goals, and development process.

Here at Labyrinth Labs, we put great emphasis on monitoring. Having a working monitoring setup is a critical part of the work we do for our clients. Cloudflare's Analytics dashboard provides a lot of useful information for debugging and analytics purposes for our customer Pixel Federation. However, it doesn’t automatically integrate with existing monitoring tools such as Grafana and Prometheus, which our DevOps engineers use every day to monitor our infrastructure.

Access for Infrastructure, BastionZero’s integration into Cloudflare One, will enable organizations to apply Zero Trust controls to their servers, databases, Kubernetes clusters, and more. Today we’re announcing short-lived SSH access as the first available feature of this integration.

OPKSSH (OpenPubkey SSH) is now open-sourced as part of the OpenPubkey project. This enables users and organizations to configure SSH to work with single sign-on technologies like OpenID Connect, removing the need to manually manage & configure SSH keys without adding a trusted party other than your IdP.

An automated routing policy configuration error caused us to leak some Border Gateway Protocol prefixes unintentionally from a router at our Miami data center. We discuss the impact and the changes we are implementing as a result.

Unauthorized TLS certificates were issued for 1.1.1.1 by a Certification Authority without permission from Cloudflare. These rogue certificates have now been revoked. Read our blog to see how this could affect you.

Unimog is the Layer 4 Load Balancer for Cloudflare’s edge data centers. This post explains the problems it solves and how it works.

Data centers are cool, everyone should have one.

In general I try to limit this blog to posts that focus on generally-applicable techniques in cryptography. That is, I don't focus on the deeply wonky. But this post is going to be an exception. Today, I'm going to talk about a topic that most "typical" implementers don't -- and shouldn't -- think about. Specifically:…

Idempotency is not just an HTTP header or a key lookup. This article covers the failure cases that bite real APIs: different requests with the same key, concurrent retries, partial success, downstream uncertainty, response replay, expiry, and duplicate message handling.

This year at Microsoft Build, Docker will blend developer experience, security, and AI innovation with our latest product announcements. Whether you attend in person at the Seattle Convention Center or tune in online, you’ll see how Docker is redefining the way teams build, secure, and scale modern applications. Docker’s Vision for Developers At Microsoft Build...

FreeBSD 15 comes with a new bridging implementation which has native support for VLANs. They have also soft-deprecated the ability to have any layer 3 addresses on member interfaces which makes it behave like a real hardware switch. The net.link.bridge.member_ifaddrs sysctl controls this behavior and it will …

I just want S3. My needs are pretty basic. I don't need to scale out. I don't need replication. I just need something that can do S3 and is reliable and not slow. Minio is dead, they pulled the plug after axing the interface. They archived the repo so they …
