What problems is Cloudflare One (SASE) solving and how is that benefiting you?
Area 1 has been a great addition to our phishing defense-in-depth controls. Area 1's solution currently sits behind our SEG and is set in BCC mode. Its purpose is to provide a second level of analysis and verification on any emails that were not filtered by our SEG. Through the use of alert webhooks, Area 1 has helped us gain visibility into the delivery of phishing emails that we might have otherwise been unaware of and more quickly remove those emails from user mailboxes. Additionally, Area1 has been able to highlight and allowed us to fix various misconfigurations in our SEG's filtering policies. Due to its placement behind our SEG, we are able to use Area1 as a third party validation/health check of our SEG's security configuration. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
