Cloud security has improved remote access and has reduced costs for smaller client sites

I have used Cloudflare One's Identity-Aware Proxy, and it is quite straightforward from what I have seen so far. The app registration on the Azure side integrates fully into Cloudflare, and I am very satisfied with that part because it is easy to set up. The integration of Cloudflare One's Secure Web Gateway and Zero Trust Network Access works without any issues. That part is pretty automatic, and if you complete the rest of the setup, it comes together by itself with no issues from my side. What makes it nice is that we can actually start replacing on-site firewalls at this stage for the smaller clients because it does not matter if they go to a coffee shop or work from home; they are still secured by the same connection. The hops get shorter and you get better latency. We have done testing to see if it is better. One thing that we did notice with our proof of concept with our current client is that they have people connecting from the UK. When they used their previous VPN solution, uploading CAD drawings and other files to the server took a long time. They mentioned that it is much quicker on Cloudflare One's solution. I definitely believe that is part of the improved performance, and I am satisfied with that as well. What is nice about Cloudflare One is that it makes the setup easier and also easier to train technicians to maintain it. Compared to legacy systems, we do not need to get fancy firewalls in place that are costly. That is definitely also a cost-saver with Cloudflare One.

Data protection and feature-rich capabilities have improved with room for reducing false positives

Forcepoint Data Loss Prevention is a good product that provides deep fingerprinting capabilities in data exploring and data discovery. They have an excellent feature for discovering data automatically through policies available in their portal, and they excel in data discovery and classification. The solution offers database fingerprinting, file fingerprinting, and script-based policies, along with automatic data discovery exploration. Fingerprinting automatically discovers customer data in our database and, based on sensitivity, detects and blocks the data if someone attempts unauthorized access. Forcepoint Data Loss Prevention is a web threat security product offering content inspection and URL filtering with built-in DLP capabilities. It proactively identifies web-based threats using tools such as advanced classification, browser isolation, and malware detection. Forcepoint Data Loss Prevention's solution focuses on internal risks and monitoring user activity to identify abnormal behavior, offering forensic tools such as login and video replay to understand intent. Data classification is an advanced tool we have used for classifying our data. The main feature is AI-powered, called DSP. The classification capability leverages a distributed AI architecture feature and GenAI small language models to classify both structured and unstructured data. It supports 50 file types and continuously improves accuracy with user feedback, enabling auto-discovery across cloud, endpoint, and on-premises data stores without extra cost of repeated scans.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"Using Cloudflare One makes my work quite easy because for DDoS protection, all I need to do is understand the OSI model and click; it makes it easier than trying to write a command line or use a Linux command."

"Cloudflare is simple to use."

"The blocking feature is very good."

"It's the endpoint exposition. We don't need to expose our VPN server to the internet and need a zero-test solution. I can apply some conditional access to the endpoint that's connecting to our network to check their security policies or the security condition of their workstation. Once the workstation is trying to connect to my internal network, then I would like to check the discrete condition of these endpoints that are trying to access my internal network. We created some conditional access. We have CrowdStrike, to check if the CrowdStrike is installed, to check if it's updated, and to check for Windows updates. We created some conditional policies to check it."

"The best feature is rate limiting. If I'm expecting 500 visits per hour, Cloudflare will limit the requests if I suddenly get 50,000."

"Enables me to work from two locations."

"We mostly use Cloudflare WAF, and gets basic Cloudflaire DDoS, caching as extra bonus . We like the factor these features are all integrated into 1 console, simple to manage."

"The capabilities of the software are strong enough for me to do what it's supposed to do. For me, we don't need to do a lot of configuration on our site. We just enable it and monitor it."

More Cloudflare One pros

"I like that the core functionality is not in different modules. The event correlation is quite powerful."

"Forcepoint DLP has very good reporting whether it is at the gateway or it is the LP, and the product is user-friendly."

"We don't require a lot of downtime, but when we do then we are getting proper support with no issue."

"After the configuration, it is very stable, and in the last two years, I haven't been faced with many issues or product-related challenges."

"We have some financial stuff which is critical for us and don't want to lose that data."

"The Forcepoint tool is well developed, is ranked in many evaluations at the top when it comes to enterprise DLP solutions, and has good artificial intelligence that enables our customers to focus on specific incidents instead of having a complicated list of uncategorized incidents."

"Forcepoint Data Loss Prevention is a user-friendly product, particularly regarding upgrades."

"It has helped us meet CTI requirements, as some employees accidentally shared compromising information and the solution was able to block that information, which is one of the biggest benefits we have seen from this tool."

"The solution offers very good sensitive data protection."

Cons

"Cloudflare One is not very powerful, but for what we require, it is basic and sufficient."

"From a logging perspective, it is still a bit difficult to see exactly what users are being blocked with the current views."

"The software has automated alerts, but the automated alerts are not available in the mobile app."

"Our subscription plan for the solution has a limitation of bot signatures."

"Our customers no longer use Cloudflare because its service is subpar."

"There are premium tier live service and lower tier live service, so we opted for the lower tier. But there is no medium tier where we pay a little extra and get a bit more service. So if that can be improved."

"The pricing is an area that can be improved. Pricing, as far as I recall, was the source of our problems."

"The response time for support must be reduced."

More Cloudflare One cons

"Incident management could be improved, along with enforcement capabilities, which DTEX does not have at the moment."

"There's zero Forcepoint presence in West Africa. Customers typically like having these things close to them. It would help if they had a presence here. Right now, Forcepoint West Africa has been administered from South Africa. Because of this, customers can't access premium support in our region."

"This solution has a tendency to provide false-positive results."

"The thing that would make it a ten for me would be for the company to improve the technical implementation; it should be better organized."

"The Database needs to be improved and fine-tuning is required on this product."

"The reporting features, the real-time reporting, can be improved in Forcepoint. On the dashboard, we don't have a feature that shows real-time incidents."

"Sometimes the agent has trouble communicating with the central management."

"The APIs for device integration are limited, so that could be improved."

"I would like to see the product extended into the cloud as a single solution."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"My company has to make yearly payments towards the licensing costs attached to the solution. There are no hidden charges apart from the licensing costs of the solution."

"The solution's pricing lacks transparency."

"The solution is not that expensive."

"The prices are slightly expensive."

"Cloudflare Zero Trust Platform's pricing is good."

"The pricing of the solution is cheap. The licensing cost is also very low. I rate the cost and pricing a three out of ten."

"The pricing is somewhere in the middle. I would rate the pricing a seven out of ten."

"The price tag is no longer $200,000, but rather $300,000 to $400,000. It's twice."

"Pricing wise, DTEX would be a four on a scale from one to ten, where one is the highest price and 10 is the lowest price. It is not the cheapest solution."

"Forcepoint DLP is a bit expensive."

"I can't comment on the cost, as a different department handles that."

"Pricing for this solution could be better."

"The price of the solution is expensive."

"The pricing is fine."

"The pricing for Forcepoint Data Loss Prevention is more expensive than Symantec, but it's negotiable. It depends on how well you negotiate. The solution is worth the money, though, based on the services and facilities it provides to my company."

"The pricing is reasonable. That's why we went with Forcepoint. They were pretty competitive."

"I prefer Forceoint because it is cheaper than Symantec."
