Cloudflare CASB

Cloudflare CASB is an API-driven Cloud Access Security Broker solution engineered to give security and IT administrators comprehensive visibility, data protection, and automated configuration auditing across critical Software-as-a-Service applications. Operating within the Cloudflare Zero Trust ecosystem, Cloudflare CASB connects directly via native APIs to leading enterprise SaaS suites—including Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, GitHub, Salesforce, Slack, Box, and Jira—evaluating SaaS security postures and identifying security risks in seconds.

The platform continuously audits SaaS environments for common vulnerabilities and dangerous misconfigurations, such as publicly shared files containing sensitive corporate data, inactive user accounts with administrative privileges, missing multi-factor authentication requirements, and unauthorized third-party application integrations. Key capabilities include automated SaaS security posture management, shadow IT discovery, data loss prevention policy auditing, and integration with Cloudflare Gateway and Access to enforce consistent access controls and automated remediation workflows across both web traffic and SaaS data repositories.

Cloudflare CASB connects with enterprise notification and ticketing systems, including Slack, Jira, PagerDuty, and SIEM tools like Splunk and Microsoft Sentinel. Primary enterprise use cases include preventing accidental public file exposure across cloud drives, identifying rogue OAuth third-party application grants with excessive permissions, auditing SaaS compliance against security benchmarks, and detecting account compromises. By providing continuous, automated scanning without requiring endpoint software installation or complex proxy routing, Cloudflare CASB ensures corporate SaaS environments remain securely configured and compliant with regulations including SOC 2, HIPAA, and GDPR.
