Illustrative example. Every protected site gets monitoring and plain-English reporting like this.

Your website is open to the whole internet. Attackers know it.

Every public website, portal, and API is scanned by automated tools around the clock, looking for an unpatched plugin, a weak login, or a server it can overwhelm. You do not need to be a big name to be a target, only reachable. We put Cloudflare between your application and the internet, configure it for how your application actually works, and keep watching, so attacks are filtered out while customers get a faster experience.

What is at stake

Downtime that costs sales

A flood of junk traffic or an overloaded server takes your site or portal offline, and customers go elsewhere while it is down.

Stolen customer data

Attackers probe forms, logins, and APIs for weaknesses that expose personal, payment, or health information, along with the notification costs and lost trust that follow.

Account takeovers and fraud

Bots try stolen passwords against your login page by the thousands, and fake sign-ups and form spam bury your team in cleanup.

How we protect your web applications

Built on Cloudflare and configured, tuned, and monitored by our team.

Cloudflare Web Application Firewall (WAF)

Common attacks stopped before they reach you

Cloudflare’s managed rules and the OWASP Core Ruleset block SQL injection, cross-site scripting, and newly published exploits at the edge, tuned by us so real customers are not caught in the net.

DDoS Protection

Your site stays up under attack

Cloudflare absorbs traffic floods across its global network, so an attack aimed at your website or API does not take your business offline.

Bot Management & Turnstile

Real customers in, bad bots out

Bot detection separates people from scrapers, credential-stuffing tools, and spam bots, and Cloudflare Turnstile protects forms and sign-ups without frustrating CAPTCHA puzzles.

Rate Limiting & Login Protection

Password-guessing attacks shut down

Limits on logins, password resets, and other sensitive pages stop brute-force and credential-stuffing attempts, and leaked-credential detection flags sign-ins that use known stolen passwords.

API Protection

Your APIs only do what they were built to do

Cloudflare API Shield discovers your API endpoints, validates requests against your schema, and can require client certificates, so mobile apps and partner integrations are not an open door.

Client-Side Script Monitoring

Checkout pages free of card skimmers

Cloudflare watches the third-party scripts running in your visitors’ browsers and alerts on new or changed code, helping stop Magecart-style skimming and supporting PCI DSS script requirements.

Origin Lockdown with Cloudflare Tunnel

Attackers cannot go around your defenses

Your servers accept traffic only from Cloudflare, or connect out through Cloudflare Tunnel with no open inbound ports, so no one can bypass your protections by finding your server’s real address.

Zero Trust Access for Admin Areas

Admin pages invisible to the public

Admin panels, staging sites, and internal tools sit behind Cloudflare Access, requiring company sign-in with multi-factor authentication before anyone even sees the login page.

TLS, DNSSEC & Security Headers

Visitors know they are on the real site

Strict end-to-end encryption, HSTS, DNSSEC, and modern browser security headers protect visitors from eavesdropping, spoofing, and clickjacking.

Performance & Caching

A faster site customers and search engines prefer

The same Cloudflare network that protects your site also caches and serves it close to your visitors, cutting load times and server costs.

Vulnerability Scanning & Penetration Testing

Weaknesses found before attackers find them

Regular scans and independent penetration tests uncover flaws in your application, with clear findings your developers can fix and a WAF rule to cover the gap in the meantime.

Security Monitoring & Incident Response

Someone is watching, and ready to act

We review Cloudflare security events and alerts, respond when an attack starts, adjust rules as threats change, and give you plain-English reporting on what was blocked.

Cloudflare expertise, without the learning curve

Cloudflare is powerful, and most of that power sits behind settings that are off by default. A WAF left in log-only mode, a server still reachable at its real address, or a bot rule that blocks paying customers can leave you with a false sense of security. We have deployed and run Cloudflare for production applications, and we bring that experience to yours: a careful rollout with rules tested before they are enforced, a configuration documented for your auditors, and ongoing tuning as your application and the threats against it change.

Already on Cloudflare? We start with a review of your current setup and a prioritized list of gaps to close.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is web application security?

Web application security protects websites, customer portals, online stores, and APIs from attacks such as data theft, account takeovers, bots, and denial-of-service floods. It combines edge protection like a web application firewall, secure configuration of your servers and admin areas, ongoing testing, and monitoring.

Why does Tridium use Cloudflare for web application security?

Cloudflare runs one of the world’s largest networks and combines a web application firewall, DDoS protection, bot management, API protection, zero trust access, and a fast content delivery network in a single platform. That lets a small or mid-sized business get enterprise-grade protection without buying and managing separate tools. Tridium designs, deploys, tunes, and monitors the configuration for you.

What is a web application firewall (WAF)?

A web application firewall inspects requests to your website or API and blocks malicious ones, such as SQL injection, cross-site scripting, and attempts to exploit known vulnerabilities, before they reach your server. Cloudflare’s WAF includes managed rulesets that are updated as new threats appear, plus custom rules we write for your application.

Will Cloudflare slow down or break our website?

Done correctly, Cloudflare usually makes a site faster, because pages are cached and served from locations close to your visitors. We start new security rules in log-only mode, review what they would block, and tune them before enforcing, so legitimate customers and integrations keep working.

Do we need to move our website or change hosts to use Cloudflare?

No. Cloudflare sits in front of your existing website, whether it runs on your own servers, AWS, Azure, or a hosting provider. In most cases the change is a DNS update, which we plan and carry out with minimal or no downtime.

Does web application security help with PCI DSS, HIPAA, or other compliance?

Yes. Controls such as a web application firewall, strong encryption, access controls for admin areas, script monitoring on payment pages, logging, and regular testing support PCI DSS, HIPAA, and customer security questionnaires. Tridium implements and documents the technical controls; we do not provide legal advice.

We already have Cloudflare. Can you help?

Yes. Many businesses turn Cloudflare on with default settings and never revisit it. We review your current setup, close gaps such as an exposed origin server or rules left in log-only mode, and can manage it going forward.
