Validate DLP Matches with Cloudflare Workers: Adjust Confidence or Reject!

Hi, it's Shii-chan! Today I'm sharing a smart new DLP (data loss prevention) feature.

Cloudflare Changelog developers.cloudflare.com

What was announced?

Cloudflare's Changelog announced that DLP custom pattern entries in Cloudflare One can use Cloudflare Workers in your account to validate matches.

Why it matters

Pattern matching alone can't know your organization's specifics. With this feature, you can check whether a match is real using organization-specific logic.

What changes

Your Worker can do the following with a match:

• Adjust the match's confidence
• Reject the match

That's helpful if you want fewer false positives in your DLP setup.

Dive Deep

The changelog itself is short. Setup steps and the Worker contract are in the linked docs page, Validate data loss prevention matches with Cloudflare Workers.

Wrap-up

• Validate DLP custom pattern matches with your own Worker
• Adjust confidence or reject matches
• Bring organization-specific logic into DLP

This one is for Zero Trust security folks fighting DLP false positives!
