Cloudflare Introduces Cloudflare for AI, a Comprehensive Suite of Tools to Safeguard AI for Businesses at Scale

Biznextindia : Cloudflare, Inc. (NYSE: NET), the leading connectivity cloud company, today unveiled Cloudflare for AI, a suite of tools to provide comprehensive visibility, security and control for AI applications–from model deployment to usage and defense against abuse. Now, Cloudflare customers will be able to protect themselves against the most pressing threats facing today’s AI models, including employee misuse of tools, toxic prompts, personally identifiable information (PII) leakage, and other emerging vulnerabilities.
AI is rapidly reshaping business operations, driving organizations to aggressively develop and integrate new models into critical areas that touch everything from how to price products, restock grocery store shelves, analyze medical data, and more. At the same time, AI models have become more accessible than ever—organizations of all sizes can leverage AI technology without the need for massive investments. As AI experimentation becomes increasingly widespread, new risks emerge–cybercriminals are targeting AI applications, while security teams struggle to keep pace with the rapid speed of innovation. Organizations that fail to securely use and deploy AI models run the risk of exposing themselves to emerging cyber threats that could compromise their core operations and company data.
“Over the next decade, an organization’s AI strategy will determine its fate–innovators will thrive, and those who resist will disappear. The adage ‘move fast, break things’ has become the mantra as organizations race to implement new models and experiment with AI to drive innovation,” said Matthew Prince, co-founder and CEO at Cloudflare. “But there is often a missing link between experimentation and safety. Cloudflare for AI allows customers to move as fast as they want in whatever direction, with the necessary safeguards in place to enable rapid deployment and usage of AI. It solves customers’ most pressing concerns without putting the brakes on innovation.”
