| This is Cloudflare's official statement (I work for Cloudflare): This afternoon we were alerted that the Verkada security camera system that monitors main entry points and main thoroughfares in a handful of Cloudflare offices may have been compromised. The cameras were located in offices that have been officially closed for nearly a year. As soon as we became aware of the compromise, we disabled the cameras and disconnected them from office networks. No customer data or processes have been impacted by this incident. This incident emphasizes the importance of the Zero Trust model that Cloudflare follows and provides to customers, which ensures that if any one system or vendor is compromised, it does not compromise the entire organization. Unlike the previous castle-and-moat approach, a Zero Trust model functions more like bulkheads in a ship, making sure that a leak in one place doesn’t sink the entire ship. |
