Cloudflare Area 1 (now Cloud Email Security) is a cloud-native email security service that provides AI-driven protection against phishing, malware, ransomware, and business email compromise, including malware-less BEC and account-takeover fraud. It preemptively scans the internet for attacker infrastructure to block campaigns before they reach inboxes. It is deployment-flexible, supporting API, BCC/Journaling, and MX/Inline, so it can act as both an API-based post-delivery layer and a secure email gateway replacement. It is sold as part of Cloudflare's Zero Trust suite to enterprises.
